An HDD? You should format the HDD with HFS+ and GPT.

Sometimes I admire your perseverance @kgp !An HDD? You should format the HDD with HFS+ and GPT.
so it appears that msi and asrock have the bios updates for their x299 boards... should i just go with one of those over the x299 deluxe?
IMHO, that's not a particularly useful reason to pick a motherboard, all of these companies update their BIOSes from time to time (there are 3 BIOS updates out already for the ASUS Prime Deluxe, including one in the past month)....If you feel comfortable building out an x299 on those motherboards then go for it. Don't expect what works for the ASUS board to work for the MSI or ASRock boards. What features will you use?
obviously kgps guide is adaptable to any x299 board as he has stated multiple times... however from his testing and others i was curious if there was a comparable board from one of those manufactures that wont exhibit the processor issue.
and to just add on, yes there are 3 updates to the prime however one of which just came out on the 10th and does not include the intel fix for this issue which came out on 11/17
