It's focused on overclocking specifically, with a lot of XOC features. Its competitors would be the godlike or the aorus xtreme. the FTW board will be better for a mainstream x570 but idk the eta on that

Thanks for that explanation, and looking at those other boards you mentioned it falls in line.

Didn't realize this went live until 9:35 AM PST. I signed up for the notify queue but I'm probably too late to get one anytime soon. Damn it! Fingers crossed I can get one soon! Got a 5950x just sitting here waiting for this board to release!

So are they shipping them today? On the z590 Dark launch, they lit the notify button then within a couple hours the first people were getting emails.

 too much for my blood.
Looks & sounds like a great board though.

Probably not that late really since a lot of people don’t expect AMD boards from EVGA and the notify queue normally goes fast for anything but GPU’s.

I saw the price last week and was wondering if it was a typo, I guess not.  Wonder why they went with black chrome look on the heatsink vs copper on the z590, just so people can identify them separately?

Considering how much that copper heat-sink actually costs (and according to BuildZoid and Luumi isn't at all necessary), it probably kept them from going over $700-725 on the x570 Dark by keeping it aluminum.

Maybe, it's also missing the 3rd M.2 slot as well.
