Heads up for anyone getting this — the RAM ships running at JEDEC default 4800 MT/s, NOT the advertised DDR5 6000. You need to go into BIOS and enable EXPO to get your full memory speed.
How to fix it:
Restart and mash Delete to enter BIOS
In EZ Mode, find the Memory section and switch from "Standard" to "EXPO1"
While you're in there, verify Re-Size BAR is enabled (mine was already on — Advanced F7 → PCIe Subsystem Settings)
F10 to save and exit
Confirm in Task Manager → Performance → Memory that it now shows 6000 MT/s
This is standard for all motherboards (they ship at safe defaults), but figured some people might not know they're leaving free performance on the table. Takes 30 seconds in BIOS.

idiots that spam thumbs up on over priced ai chips excuses etc really are brain dead.
let them buy these as they produce nothing of value. actually ai currently produces NEGATIVE value.

Ram is expensive right now, so the best thing is to ebay the current, then grab 64gb and be happy with the 650, sell the ram. if you are set on the 840 and want to prioritize ram, then grab 32gb (16x2 @1.25v cl38).
The way to actually get the 840 board, the boxes are identical, there is no tell outside of the box besides if it looks "new". old dinged up boxes are a sure way to see if it's a 2025 650 box. i went to 3 costcos because I had 4x32gb sticks to grab the 840, there was a guy there in the computer section that saved me a bunch of time, he found all stores that had recent shipments in and sent me to that store, i had no issues swapping it for the 840 - i just had to pay the extra tax.
tldr - to get the 840, ask a rep to look at who has the latest shipments, it took minutes vs driving around town.
I think to make up for the better Mobo they swapped the AIO for a slightly cheaper one
