Screen shots of the bios so we can see how Origin achieved the overclock would be nice (adaptive, offset, constant voltage, etc.).

The lack of airflow in the case and the top mounted intake is an epic fail for me. A $4000+ build cannot afford such mistakes.

FTA: "Can the new chassis and overclocked performance help justify the nearly $4,600 price tag?"

Can the new chassis and overclocked performance help justify the nearly $4,600 price tag?

SPOILER ALERT!!!! The image right underneath at the top of the specifications section on page one bears none other than the 2018 Editor's Choice tag/icon. A tell-tale sign that they believe the price isn't bad for the performance they measured.

I don't understand how this gets an award with temps like that?

i'd rather have cake instead of that thing.

You'd get a lot of cake for how much this costs.
