If the X370 motherboard range is a little too expensive for your taste then perhaps the B350 chipset equipped Tomahawk will hit the sweet spot.

Not finished reading through the review (haven't watched the video yet either) but I am pretty impressed with those OC numbers from a lower end board. Basically the same as all the other expensive boards.
Edit: really strange results for the Gaming benches. The CH6 is at least an extra 15FPS ahead of all the other boards(in the OC test)? How in the world does a motherboard make that much of a difference?

So far the only difference would be BCLK overclock

Yeah, the fact that a low end motherboard achieved such a solid overclock with the top-tier eight-core makes me much more hopeful that decent speed on an mITX board with a six-core R5 will be possible.
Now we just need to see if ASUS will do an X300 version of their Z270i.
I cant remember the number now, it was one MSI sent over and I cant check because the board has gone back already.
Try upping your SOC volts and manually setting 3200MHz

This was a great review despite you being crook Tom and I must say it was a real pleasant change to hear you say how well MSI nailed it this time with the voltages lets just hope they don't go back to their old habits with wild voltages

1.1 TTL used. You're BIOS is newer so the X-AMP should be more stable now but we have many more memory kits to QVL still.

CF is supported yes.

Thanks for the reply MSIRawZ, great to know. Found version 1.33 would run 3200 on X-AMP 2 however was not stable
so rolled back to version 1.31.Also would like to add that l fully agree with TTL, this is one of the best mid range boards l have ever owned or used and the Artic version looks fantasitic, good job MSI.
