Personally for the best stability while overclocking I find Asus boards to be the top dog.

Why? 

[just_dave]

ASRock Taichi.

Carbon has shitty BIOS but good VRM, Aorus decent BIOS but worse VRM

Is the Corsair Obsidian 750D available in your country?

Double check the socket the foxconn ones are a pain and could damage the cpu.And most asus boards are not really a e-atx size.A lot are 12 inch x 10.6 inch up to 10.7 inches wide.A e-atx is 12x13 and atx is 12x9.6,So any case that says atx up to 10.7 will fit the asus boards they call e-atx it is really a atx with a inch added to the width

230$ - TAX polices here are so bad which makes price so higher

but some products are exactly same as official USD value

That's not bad for a full tower case that supports E-ATX, I've actually bought one myself for a new build and it cost me around £126.00

You're breaking the bank with a 1950x but you want to save on a case? pff you're doing this very wrong, get Asus Prime-A x399 and a e-ATX case otherwise get a Ryzen 7 2800x releasing in February.

Not if you want to overclock CPU and Memory so much, Asus BIOS is the only reliable enough that I can safely say your Threadripper will work with memory frequency higher than 2933mhz.... VRM wise it also is the only, either the Prime-A or the Zenith Extreme, that I know you can overclock to the silicon's limit without having a dead board within months due to insufficient VRMs.

Ryzen architecture limits overclocking to round 4ghz whatever you do, it's just its silicon limitation for this architecture.

4ghz

after going through the apps that i use does not benefit high GHZ so there is no benefit for overclocking  

so i am sticking with stock TURBO 4GHZ Boost
