AMD Radeon RX 5300XT with 4GB GDDR5 and B550 Spotted for OEM

AMD will be launching a Radeon RX 5300XT with 4GB GDDR5 soon, next month even. From the looks of things, it might be NAVI architecture based but also can be a refresh of course. It is, however, an add-in card that can be purchased by OEMs.

Specifications got listed at the HP website but pretty much is indicates an RX 5300XT 4GB model featuring GDDR5 memory. However, the HP PCs are listed at Alternate.de mentioned being shipping as early as October. Fun fact the motherboard for that PC used us a new derivative as well, listed as AMD Promontory B550A.

Well, at least it is now clear that AMD is prepping some stuff for next month. The procesie details are yet to be announced.

I have a feeling that this is an RX 550 4gb refresh.

A better question would be where is the 5700XT cause i sure can't find one in Canada. AMD really need to address availability of their cards. They might lose a sale if i can't find one soon.

Probably waiting for 7nm+

Kind of surprising - seems like they are readily available in the US.

I'd like to know what took so long for the B550(A) chipset to make itself known ?
if its not got any PCIe4, then its almost a re-brand of the B450, unless its been migrated to a new process node ?

The German website says they would be available for delivery between the 8th and 9th October.
i guess that would mean we are going to be seeing some announcements on the 7th October, or around there?

I knew it! I just knew it.

ops:
Right after I'll buy B450 chipset, the B550 will be released was my main distressful thinking.
Now, let's see how it behaves and what brings to the table.

I just said: "screw it"
I went and bought a B450 motherboard. It will support the same CPUs as the B550 and I didn't have to wait months without knowing anything.
I doubt B550 will be much different from B450 tbh.

@Silva man, misery loves company.
/Cries on B450 chipset tears.

Nah, we will be just fine. What could possibly have this one if already X570 is launched and we still went for B450?

From the specs, I seriously don't see what the hell held ASMedia up in releasing this. It looks like a carbon copy of the B450, but there could be more chipset lanes I suppose...

edit : Going mATX though, I was limited by the only mATX X570 Board, which isn't great, and there is one more now.
Not exactly choice.
At the time I went B450M

Still happy though.

Everyone be happy with the b450 the b550 will surely be a rebrand with little or nothing new over the b450 even if it did come with pci-e 4 what are u going to use that needs it?

I imagine AMD held these back to sell more x570s
