" rel="nofollow - Just picked up a R5 1600 & looking to pair a mobo with it. Was thinking about purchasing the X370 Fatal1ty Gaming K4 but apparently this is EOL? What does this mean for me? Will I get bios support throughout the lifespan of AM4? Thanks |

| Maybe not the full lifespan of your chip, but it should still be supported for a while |

| " rel="nofollow - This is really sad to see that a board this new is already EOL. What is the reason to EOL a board so soon after launch? |

You will still get full support for the K4. The only reason Asrock EOL'd it is because some parts became difficult to source so instead of calling it a "rev 2" or something using the alternative parts they just decided to make a different board and call it the Gaming X to help simplify things. |

It sad that "rev 2" version is weaker from "rev 1". Rev 2 only has better memory support
