AMD has been carrying since the departure of these Ryzen 3000s that ensures the best option for mid-range boards than previous chipsets. But with its GPUs with PCIe 4.0 on the market, choosing to access these boards doesn't seem to be the most sensible and less likely future for SSDs with the same bus that increases its speed every 6 months.
For this reason and before the Intel siege over its new 10-year plans, the impact of AMD surpasses its B550 and A520 chipset, which we already know its details.
AMD B550 and A520: medium and low board range will soon arrive in Ryzen 3000
It was through the anonymous motherboard in the western market under the SOYO brand, where we now know the details and support that both parties can bring to the market. Starting with the B550, it will obviously be some upgraded version of the older B450 that we can find in stores.
AMD looks set to boost the sale of this player chipset at low budget, as it will allow its graphics cards to accept PCIe 4.0 and at the same time SSDs will also benefit from this new version of the bus.
So, the cheaper version of the X570 that many users were calling AMD.
As if that isn't enough, there will be support for USB 3.1 Gen 2 and overdrive and CrossFire, making it a tough competitor for Intel and its new build, because when boards are offered at a much cheaper price we are talking about Lisa Su's expertise.
The A520 arrives to complete the range of entry into the platform
For those of you who do not have enough money to choose the B550, the A520 comes, which will get PCIe 3.0 in all its gaps, guaranteeing the lowest price due to the high demand in terms of electricity and looking for the PCIe 4.0 signal.
Logically, the boards that make up this chipset will not be optimized, so AMD has decided to block this capacity on this chipset, in the wake of price and features conflict, they will not have CrossFire support either.
So, AMD plans to unlock the full potential of the platform with these two new chips, which we understand will arrive on the market shortly before Comet Lake-S, initially reducing the potential sales these Intel processors have and thus enhancing what the Ryzen 3000 does.
We will have to pay close attention to the models presented by the products and the attributes it provides, since both the VRM stages, as well as the coolness of these and the chipset will be factors that will determine the final price and efficiency in low-light conditions. you exceeded it.
