Gigabyte has announced that it will be unveiling the high-end AMD X670 motherboards for the Ryzen 7000 ‘Raphael’ series.
Fans would glimpse the X670 AORUS Xtreme, X670 AORUS Master, X670 PRO AX, and the X670 AERO D motherboards as part of the X670 series chipsets. This event will occur after AMD takes the stage on 23rd May 2022.
A recent leak on Twitter confirmed the rumors of a duo chipset motherboard for the AMD Zen 4 devices. The user @9550pro posted two images; one with a circuit layout and the other with the words “PRIME X670-P WIFI.1.03TX“, indicating the design of the mentioned model.
The circuit design clearly shows two chipsets, as highlighted.
The image features the PCB design of the ASUS X670-P Prime WiFi motherboard.
The exact spots of the AM5 LGA1718 socket, four DIMM DDR5 memory slots, M.2 Gen5 interface, and one PCI-e 5. x16 interface can also be seen.
Keep in mind that this is only a rumor. As suggested by some, the chips might be Promontory chips from ASMedia, AMD’s usual partner. The specific advantages of having two chipsets are unknown, but this seems like an exciting upgrade for the Zen 4 processors.
Gigabyte and ASRock have also announced their motherboards for AMD Zen 4/7000 series.
