Gigabyte confirms AMD X670 chipset based motherboards Computex 2022 Press Release
Gigabyte's Computex 2022 presence will focus on "Power of Computing," the company said. The business will display unannounced AMD X670 motherboards.
X670 is the next-generation AM5 chip. The new boards have Zen4/Raphael-based Ryzen 7000 CPUs. AMD has verified an LGA1718 socket and DDR5 and PCIe Gen5 memory for the X670 series. Gigabyte listed the X670 AORUS Xtreme, X670 AORUS Master, X670 AORUS Pro AX, and X670 AERO motherboards in a note.
We will be showcasing the latest AMD Socket AM5 motherboards, including the X670 AORUS XTREME, MASTER, PRO AX and X670 AERO D designer motherboards for gaming. Users will get a glimpse of the advanced design and extensive features of the PCIe 5.0 graphics slot and M.2 Gen5 interface on GIGABYTE motherboards, the company says.
For the time being, we just know that it will feature the X670 and nothing about the rumored X670E. According to the press release, the top-of-the-line X670 AORUS Xtreme motherboard will feature a normal X670 chipset. Furthermore, Gigabyte says that their motherboards will include a preview of PCIe 5.0 graphics ports and an M.2 Gen5 interface. This obviously relates to the X670 chipset's capabilities.

nothing is messed up on intels setup.
AMD has the dumb configuration of having sata and usb on the cpu.

When I look at the Z690 platform diagram, it seems to me the mobo manufactures could include a terrifying number of USB ports if they wanted to. But then again, I'm never sure if I'm reading those diagrams correctly.

and..........I just saw the pictures it looks garbage....AMD learned nothing
4 ddr5 sticks that don't work
rear usb ports look like 10y old entry level computers, not X570 or TRX40
I see the unusable pcie 5.0 M.2 slot that destroys everything else if you use it...
but sure believe what you want it's not like I've got an Asus Z690 extreme and it's...garbage, I was waiting for AMD to show it's motherboards but if it's the same "lost into the void" bandwith fiasco I'm going back to X570 5950X

please don't mess up how the lanes are spread between the slots rear i/o are spread like Intel did...I'll take 1-2 M.2 less if it doesn't destroy the plateform like Z690
just to give you an idea...my X570 had 11 read usb-a and 1 usb-c....plugged in the back usually equals long cables that weight a lot and tug on the rear port so usb-c types are near useless and most adapters destroy bandwith down to usb 2 :/ (same for cables unless you buy specific tested and proven ones)
my top of the line z690 has 7 usb-a "woaw"
and don't get me started on the fact that you lose half your bandwith because pcie slots are split by multiplier x4 x8 x16 not by "bandwith" which means when your x570 board split between 2x pcie slots you got x8 4.0 and x8 4.0 which is fine (not many 3.0 left so it's not a problem)
but on z690 since we don't have 5.0 cards you also get x8 4.0 and x8 4.0..yep from 16x 5.0 you go to x8 4.0 and x8 4.0 so x16 4.0 overall losing half the bandwith into the void aka a good 25.6Gbs/s ...best design ever
