Quad-CPUs? Wow, 32 core support... (Sadly assume that was supposed to be 'GPUs')For all-round performance ASRock recommends its X370 Taichi. Said to be attractively priced this board again eschews APU support but you can fit quad-CPUs to cure that ailment.

And how exactly are they supporting Quad SLI or Quad CrossFireX from those PCIe slots?!Support for Nvidia Quad SLI, AMD Quad CrossFireX
2 PCIe 3.0 x16, 1 PCIe 2.0 x16, 2 PCIe 2.0 x1, 1 M.2 (Key E)

Why don't the top motherboards have APU support? Surely its a clear upgrade path from an APU, to an APU with dedicated/dual graphics and then to a CPU with dedicated graphics.
This way someone could buy a top end board and upgrade over time, instead of being forced into keeping a lower range spec.
Taichi looks great, and has excellent state-side pricing ($190). Looks like some UK retailers are upping the margin on it a little at the moment so not such good value, but I'll be watching it for the future.
Anyone got any Mini-ITX news? When they start shipping AMD might finally wrench me away from my beloved 3770k
Some of them do. Gigabyte's Gaming K7 has on-board HDMI output - there's absolutely no use for that *except* with an APU. MSI's £300 XPower Gaming Titanium supports both HDMI and DP outputs. Although who in their right mind would spend £300 on a motherboard for a < £100 APU I have no idea...
