    My sample size is three, with the current one being an X399-A first-gen Threadripper board bought on Black Friday of 2017. The only issue I’ve had that could be attributed specifically to that motherboard was lack of Linux kernel support for the onboard it-87 sensor chip variant at the time I bought it.
