Honestly I am ok with my tuf gaming hoard but ASUS really needs to get its armory crate software able to see current drivers and Bios. It's otherwise useless as it thinks the most current is several revisions old.

I am very happy with my current TUF x570 board. I suppose it will come down the features and price. Jus how much is this "E" going to cost and just what will it do for me that the one w/o an E wont?

From what I've read so far, the "E" or "Extreme" chipset will come with 2 PCIe5x16 slots. Don't know how they're gonna manage that considering there are only 24 PCIe 5.0 lanes coming off the CPU..
