People can call me crazy but I ordered a trident z royal cl 14 4000mhz ddr4 kit (7ns) to pair with a strix ddr4 board

that's a nice kit.  not a fan of the royal look, but the memory is a good performer.  I prefer the Neos, good performers and a less harsh look.

I think Royals are the best looking RGB kit on the market. I also picked the elite series. Ddr5 would have been cool but honestly wont perform as good as these.

have my new cpu on the way waiting for the new board to be released
 

 
Me too! I think I'm gonna go with EVGA for the board to pair with the I7 12th gen. Picked up a EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 P6, I have a EVGA 3090 hybrid. Using the ddr4 ram I have. Just need a motherboard and EVGA to release a bracket for their CLC 360!.

Remember that E-ATX is not a standard. There are no dimensions bound to it. An “ATX” case might even be able to support this board if it has the room for the board. Best to wait till dimensions are released.

Might want to put new DDR5 memory on that list too.  The announced EVGA Z690 boards don't support DDR4.

Do you guys have cases recommendations for using that E-ATX mobo ? Thanks

I have a 12700k, 32gb of the corsair vengeance 5200 ddr5 i managed to snag, and (for now) the rog strix z690-F to hold me over. Stuffing it all in a bequiet! Dark Base 700 with a front-mounted AIO cooler, which should still have plenty of room if I'm able to score a classy.
 
Like others, I just can't wait when there are no guarantees on A) release timing or B) me being able to buy a board.

Can't wait for EVGA mobo Z690!
 
You guys are killing us here.

Any word if the Classified board will be available in DDR5 only or two versions for DDR5 and DDR4 ?

I believe Jacob said on Friday's stream no plans for DDR4 at this time.

Any crazy good SSD with PCIe 5 for the maximum HDD speed?? Of course that would work with Classified mobo.

I would like to achieve maximum read and write and also response I need to be really fast. No budget limit.

I don't mind waiting for a month or so. Same as for Monitor, Classified, RAM etc :)
 
Any suggestion on the upcoming PCIe 5 SSD is more than welcomed!

WE NEED ETA ON THE MOBOS!!!! I need to upgrade from 9900K to 12900K!

Late this year is what I heard. Considering supply constraints, I would not be surprised if that ends up into early 2022 though.

@EVGA_JacobF gave me this response on Twitter. ETA is Dec.

Link to reply?

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Wait though - the queue opens in December or they're shipping units in December?  There is a big diff

also probably this is for the US... in Europe it's getting harder and harder to get eVGA products... got lucky at the time with the Z390 Dark but I might never get the same luck again... 

Well...I had been holding out to get an Aorus X570 Xtreme mobo because it was insanely built and looked gorgeous, but now that I see the Z690 Kingpin, I just have one thing to say to that...

F*** Aorus!  

Do you guys think we will get any info ? 
I cannot order any RAM/Case/Cooler/SSD until I have the dimensions and the specs of the mobo 
 
 

I sure hope they won't just drag it around for months before releasing, because I'm in for buying Mobo+CPU+RAM+AIO soon, but I'm not too rushed since I can't find good DDR5 kit yet, so I can wait some time but not too much ...
BTW even tough I want white Motherboard the classified is the best looking one out there, I would buy right away if it's out at the time of purchase.

The Z690 Asus Maximus Formula is white and might be the best looking mobo ever made.

it looks great indeed, but I don't think it looks 800$ great ...
