So with this chip coming out soon i figured id start a new thread. This chip does indeed look to be like its releasing on X299.
I will update the thread as time goes on with reviews, specs, etc.
It looks like Asus is preparing 3 new boards for this. No real information stating if current boards will support them as they are or with a bios update or even at all. Though i would suspect with how good AMD is doing it wouldnt be a good idea to force a new board when launching a chip on the same chipset for support.

Also looks like the higher end SKUs will get a 4 lane increase.
