True that. And that's exactly why I went HEDT. An abundance of PCIe lanes.
It's looking like the ASUS ROG Maximus Extreme is going to be the only option. Darn it :)
It's maximum DDR5 support is 7200 MT/s

Intel's new HEDT platform is extremely disappointing. And extremely expensive.
There is no "one board to rule them all" (excuse the LOTR reference).
