Hey guys!

I am realy wondering, when the X299 overclocking motherboards will come out?

I know that all can overclock, but im specifically looking at 3 motherboards that come with half the ram slots:

Asus VI Apex

Asrock OC Formula

EVGA Dark

 

I couldn't find any ETA or anything like that.

Also i'd like to know, is 7900X realy that hot like people say and does it consume so much power?

I have a single GPU and 750W PSU, should be enough right?

Im still bouncing between 7900X and 7820X, prob can OC 7900X to 4.8 and the 7820X to 5ghz if lucky with the chip, but i've read some crazy statements that this cpu can take like 400 watts at this overclock, is there any backing behind that?

All X299 boards can OC.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

No Gigabyte X299 SOC? The Kaby Lake variant held the records for Z270 memory and LN2 CPU frequency.

He means the more "OC orientated" boards where they'll have PCIe enable/disable switches, more phases, maybe 4 dimm slots instead of 8 for more stability, etc.

Just noticed this one now, not that i have any use for more than 4 slots, but probably this one will be pricier than others?

Impossible to tell at this point. The Z170 variant was extremely expensive while the Z270 one was cheaper than the Apex.
