That's not actually it. I've covered this before, but it comes down to a ton of issues many of which aren't necessarily AMD's fault. The X370 launch was screwed up by Intel who moved up the Z270 launch to cause problems for AMD because they have the OEM's balls in a vice. Some of the issues are the motherboard vendor's fault. You need to understand that. AMD doesn't have the control over its board partners that Intel does. In essence, they do what they want. That's changing as we've seen with the X570 series, but back then it was very much the case.
I know you covered it before and I'm not exactly ignoring your posts or disagreeing with you. But seeing as AMD's history with motherboards (note their sub-par boards aren't exactly a 'new' thing either) you'd think that there would be a lot more attention from them trying to smooth things over with the OEM's. Especially now seeing as they have a product people REALLY want.
And I know, this isn't exactly a big incident either, I'll get over myself sometime later after I finish my cheese.
