Cheapest X299 boards will cut quad-channel memory and PCIe lanes

Why is Intel so awful Intelbros?

this just makes sense as half of their x299 CPUs cant take advantage of quad channel or more than 20 PCIe lanes anyway

Why not just split it into ANOTHER chipset? No seriously, if they seriously insist on Babylake X make it have separate motherboards with a different chipset.

Why would you do HEDT without HEDT features?

Thought high PCI-E lane counts didn't matter, AMD shill

This is actually a good thing. With this intel ensures that high performance users don't get shoddy boards.

Thanks intel!

I thought they counted, Intel shill

>merchant you are my greatest ally. heif

Of course they do.
That's why every CPU in the Threadripper (HEDT equivalent, which Ryzen is not) offers 64 PCI-e lanes. No cut-down 28 lane jewery.

If Threadripper is going to assrape your workstation dreams and you pissed off OCers with your mayonnaise-powered Walletrippers, the only demographic you can still aim for are single-GPU gamers.

What an absolute mess

lmao

IT JUST ISN'T FAIR

Does Intel cut Pci-E Lanes on purpose?
It seems like their 4 and 6 core have seriously nerfed lanes.

>single-GPU gamers.
But that's almost everyone though
ASUS said 87% of all their GPU buyers used a single Card.

>>ryzen doesn't support quad channel
>quad channel is placebo!!!

>>x299 entry level boards with that people obviously won't buy together with $600 chips
>JUST HUAHEHUAHUEUA LOL TBHQH FAMALAM DLID DIS JIM KELLER JEW KILLER KEK

It's DoA, user.

>consumer cpu doesn't support quad channel
>HEDT cpu doesn't support quad channel

makes sense..

intel release a forest gump of cpu's
mandates on the mobo manufactures to built 3 sets of mainboards
one that take full advantage of HEDT features
one that targets affordale HEDT users
one that is a shame to even called HEDT
and on top of that depending on what you want you need to buy the proper key to unlock a feature that everyone has BUT intel's HEDT
literally alienating your own user base by forcing someone that bought your lower hedt cpu to not only buy a new cpu if he wants more lanes BUT also a new mobo
and somehow that retarded ceo that looks like an offspring of goku with less iq thinks that this will work

Don't forget your $300 RAID dongle, delidding kit and high end liquid cooling goy!

no pcie lanes accidentally RMA themself on the laser cutting

did you just compared ryzen a consumer chip with a HEDT platform?

yes, he did

just like a lot of shill reviewers will too

Until people realize to get 20-30% more performance than consumer Ryzen you need a $1000 Intel CPU, a $300 motherboard, $350 of DRAM(current prices), and a custom water loop which costs god knows how much?

The water loop is most important, if you got with air your performance advantage is gone because thermal throttling.

And the $20 delidding tool!
Don't forget the $20 delidding tool!

delet

Oh and don't forget your Optane DDR4 and Optane SSD's!

and a 300 to 500 key depending on the raid you want

intel lately is doing all the right moves to get every
single person that knows a bit or two to just say wtf are you doing..

the latest on the track creating a linux distro that works only on intel! clearlinux.org/

You forgot the 1000W PSU

OY VEY SHUT IT DOWN

Don't worry.
Under anything but a 280mm watercooling setup, it'll shut itself down.

Buuuuuutt it can overclock higher.
Sugoi onii-chan

IT'S NOT MUCH OF A HEDT IF YOU CUT EVEN MORE PCIE LANES AND QUAD-CHANNEL NOW IS IT?

WHO AMD THREADRIPPER HERE???!!?
FUCK INTEL!!!!!!!!!!!
