I use this board with a Threadripper 2950X and am very satisfied.
Memory is GSkill Trident Z with 3200Mhz and CL14 (XMP would be 3600 Mhz with CL16), a 1080Ti, 2x M.2 and 7 SATA drives. 2x LAN runs in teaming, I don't use WLAN.
Everything runs to my complete satisfaction. I haven't had any problems so far, everything runs stable and very fast.
The "Blink Blink" can be turned off, so I often don't understand the negative reviews about it. There are also people who use such a board in the showcase, they are happy about it ;-)

purchased this product
I bought the board with a Threadripper 2920X for my new workstation (software development). Accordingly, gaming attributes (SLI, LED, ...) did not interest me much, but connectors and Linux compatibility. The board meets these requirements completely. The installation with a Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 worked fine, the Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200 bars work without problems (although not on the compatibility list) and even Ubuntu 16.04 boots, which was still on the old hard disk.
