I mean it's not a big deal really. It's not like you'd get the most out of it with that chipset as those boards are barebones and wouldn't overclock great anyway since I believe virtually all 320 boards lack heatsinks.

This is basically the right logic. The biggest problem I have with the old 320 boards is that they cost around $60 or so... a b350 costs $70-80.
It's just never made sense to go for the barebone setup when a better version of it exists within the b350, i don't know to me it felt like the 320 boards were a bit of time waster to even consider.
I'm not surprised my motherboard is on the list, but I still might upgrade. If ASUS can give me a fully functional BIOS for the new CPUs (which I doubt), I might stick with my current motherboard as it has most of what I need. It has very limited m.2 SSD support and I want to move to m.2 storage to clean up my system's cabling as much as possible, but that''s not a deal breaker.
Asus has not been fantastic for supporting their older stuff, so I suspect I'll be buying a Crosshair 8 to go along with my 7 and 6. I sure would love a drop in upgrade though, or two!
