Mobos are a little scarce, and a bit on the pricey side, but this is a decent value as far as CPU.

 

[VirtualLarry]

Yep, sold out, just like *that*. Was tempted.

 

[Macgyversite]

Yeah ditto. Buying a new Mobo that has very little upgrade potential killed it for me.

AMD should do a product tie-in, "ThreadRipper: Harley-Davidson Edition". It could make the sound of a Harley starting up and revving when you boot the rig.

It would help emphasize the meaty, throaty, raw horsepower of the ThreadRipper CPU family.

On second thought, BIOS space is precious, better to make it an "exclusive" theme for Win10, that has Harley backgrounds and startup / system sounds,

Grab a Harley sound off youtube and turn it into a MP3. Then go into sound settings and turn on loading music and change it to the motorcycle

Back in stock for the same price, I think.

Wow. What's sad is my 5800X kicks its' butt and I don't (yet) have the dead platform issues...
