I have to compliment your taste in hardware, I’m building almost exactly 
the same machine as we speak except for the SSD, I'm using a 1TB 870 Pro.

 

Although, I’m entirely new to coreboot and am trying to gather as much info 
as possible, I’m at the last stage before flashing but I am struggling to 
understand some of the config options. 

If at all possible, could I have a look at your config file Sven as our 
builds are almost identical.

 

Also did you flash Coreboot with seabios and then internally flash heads?

 

Thanks,

Stacey

Coreboot comes as part of heads - so you just build heads and flash that to
the 4mb and 8mb chips inside.
