Flagship and not 10gb ethernet?
My old msi 570 prestige have 10gb ethernet and that board is… what 6 to 7 years old!
Would have expected that middle range boards to have 10gb by now…

At least it looks like they have sufficient VRM on even the cheapest board to run any of the AM5 CPUs. I certainly understand the limited SKUs given long term socket compatibility and poor retail reception of the 9000 series. I wouldn't be surprised if more are released throughout next year.

... the Godlike has 10Gb and 5Gb ethernet ports...

It's a chicken and egg type situation as there are very few consumer level 10Gb solutions and the NICs cost a lot more than the respective 1/2.5/5Gb models.

So it's more like Demi-Godlike? ;-)

Do you think the needs of Gods is the same as the needs of mortals?

It's geared for LN2 "godlike" heavy overclocking with a surprising amount of excess.

Price and release date? I haven't seen it in store yet.
