Obviously the ports are backwardly compatible, but you were replying to me after I was talking exclusively about the internal USB headers...
As long as we agree that there aren't enough headers for everyone's needs.

I still plug my mouse and keyboard to the 2.0 connectors on my Z170 board. At least that eliminates all the possible problems.

Nice with some highend 'looking' mobo's for AM4. The first releases looked like the where 2 years behind in design compared to intel-platform. I know the looks does not matter, but its nice to see AM4 on pair here as well 
This means that the companies are taking Ryzen-thread-epyc serious when they roll out the design team to pimp it up!

Nope, no NDA for me either. But then. last AMD launch, W1zz did the CPU, so I was kind of expecting the same. I'll get boards I'm sure, but I do not have anything as of yet; still working on X299 (one in progress, one done)!My bad

IDC spill it Dave lol. I'll still be waiting for your review. You always seem to find something compelling in each review regardless of how many times a platform is informed upon. Interesting none the less.
