AMD is moving connected 4 600-series chipsets for its AM5 level which includes X670E, X670, B650E & B650 motherboards. While X670E & X670 person been the main speech and B650 has been official, the latest leaks bring america the last confirmation of the B650E chipset too.

AMD B650E Chipset Motherboards: Bringing PCIe Gen 5.0 Slot & Gen 5.0 M.2 Support At Mainstream Prices

We reported backmost astatine Computex 2022 that the B650E bid motherboards connection much PCB layers to efficiently connection amended signaling owed to PCIE's rigid Gen5 protocol specifications. Right now, determination is the Extreme X670 chipset has been announced officially, adding to the capableness of PCIe Gen 5 slot for graphics enactment and PCIe Gen 5 M.2 for storage.

In an interior presumption leaked by @wxnod, we tin spot that a shaper has listed the B650E (E For Extreme) chipset successful 1 of its slides. The main vantage of B650E motherboards volition beryllium that since they diagnostic a singular Promontory 21 chipset, they volition decidedly beryllium aimed astatine the mainstream user conception with much affordable prices compared to the X670E and the X670 lineup.

While losing a Promontory 21 chipset volition pb to decreased I/O capabilities, this implementation volition let for much feasible mATX and mITX designs. We person seen ASUS's ROG Maximus X670E Gene and ROG STRIX X670E-I Gaming WiFi which diagnostic an mATX & mITX design, respectively.

Both motherboards are based connected the X670E chipset which means that they volition beryllium priced higher. But a committee with a B650E chipset tin clasp the 2 astir important aspects of the Extreme bid level and that's enactment for a PCIe Gen 5.0 slot and PCIe Gen 5.0 M.2. At the aforesaid time, the pricing compared to the modular B650 (Non-E) motherboards volition beryllium somewhat higher for the B650E offerings considering they volition battalion much PCB layers to enactment the indispensable signaling interface for Gen 5 slot and M.2 support.

B650E volition springiness AMD an borderline successful the mainstream conception wherever they bash deficiency DDR4 enactment versus the Intel offerings but having due Gen 5 slot and M.2 larboard enactment tin person amended longevity, particularly considering that Gen 5 SSDs and the DirectStorage API are going to beryllium a large woody successful the upcoming years.

There person truthful acold been nary merchandise announcements regarding either, the B650E oregon B650 boards. But, we expect to spot products successful October arsenic they were antecedently meant to motorboat successful aboriginal Q4 2022.
