So they've went from Kaby Lake having serious heating issues with overclocking at all, to a 20-40% power draw increase over Broadwell for the equiv CPU, with even worse heat issues that AIO coolers can't handle 4.6GHz OC's or higher to now having motherboards with serious VRM issues.
Post the link but I believe you.
Going that high requires pretty nice voltages on a package that large. You also can't compare AMD's offerings when they are nearly hardware locked at 4.0-4.1GHZ. You get to certain points where OC'ing PAST a certain point requires a huge voltage push. A lot of DR involved.
But I do agree, X299 is a disaster. Not really the chipset but the platform as a whole. The CPU situation is retarded.
Have you seen the leaked VEGA benchmarks? Sort of disappointed if true. A GTX 1080 is beating it. I do think this is not the flagship, I hope and pray.

Haven't seen those, been following the Frontier Edition benchmarks and it's beating the 1080 across the board with the Pro drivers.
I'm actually very encouraged.
