(for now we can call them out for bad launch BIOS support).
bascially typical AMD launch. It's even more puzzling as some of the insiders have said that the mobos have literally been availabel for 2-3 months before launch. So I guess AMD has a problem on the software / bios side of things. I suspect they did a respin pretty late for better clocks and hence it isn't all sorted out yet.
Still given that they could have just put a safe number on the package. No one would complain if it boosts higher than advertised. The 4.6 ghz on the 3900x seems like they just had to put a higher number on there.
