Get the first look at the new AMD AM5 B650E and B650 motherboards, supporting the recently announced AMD Ryzen™ 7000 Series processors. Bringing the power of DDR5 memory and PCIe® 5.0 technologies, the AM5 platform introduces more performance, power, and possibilities than ever before. AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs & the AM5 platform have officially launched but prices of the X670E boards aren’t looking that enticing for consumers to switch to the new platform this soon, as such, AMD & its partners are getting ready for the launch of the more affordable and mainstream B650E & B650 motherboards that will be launching in early October.
The B650E & B650 chipsets will be aimed as a mainstream motherboard solution with the Extreme series featuring both PCIe Gen 5.0 and M.2 while the non-E boards will adopt only the PCIe 5.0 slot designs.
The B650 motherboards will be the successor to the B550 motherboards and come in a similar price range. Compared to the X670/E offerings, the B650 chipset will come in a single PCH design. The motherboards will carry support for RDNA 2 iGPU too which will be featured on Ryzen 7000 ‘Raphael’ CPUs and offer both HDMI / DP outputs.
