the idea that amd, on the rise of the success, would make an ASMEDIA chipset, to bring back memories from old bad days in which you could buy a VIA motherboard for a pentium machine, makes, in my opinion, and as opinion you should read this, this a completely fake rumor.
Astyanax
um... the x370 and x470 were asmedia chipsets.
the x570 is only a repurposed zen2 io die because asmedia wasn't ready to release a Gen4 controller.

No mater what ! upgrade or not, my new 3800x will hold ground for 5 - 8 years !

HH, went to mydrivers website, google translate had a hard time converting chinese to actual english, and didn't find the article about the whole rumour.
But that's not important. For me, the longevity of AM4 socket is.
However, AsMedia or VIA are not completely out of the question, but doesn't mean that I have fond memories regarding those brands, quite the opposite.

This explains why we are still waiting for B550.
Take your time AMD.
Intel is surely taking their time fixing their vulnerabilities.

You see when a man is disinformed how can bias take over?
I'm the living proof.

i am confused... who is disinformed

Here I am looking forward to buying an X570 motherboard and wow! Prices just went up. This was $130 a week ago. https://www.newegg.com/msi-x570-a-pro/p/N82E16813144263
Astyanax
he is, and he owned up to it.
heffeque
3 or 4 threads per core... can't wait for that!

Stop looking at marketplace sellers. Newegg's price is actually $10 less than you stated, just that they are currently sold out,

When X570 was launched and from the moment people found out that even X470 supports PCI-E 4.0 prices went up for all AM4 above medium tier level.
Had an Msi X470 Carbon Gaming motherboard for 150€ in my Amazon wish list, was about to buy it, and poof went up to 200€.
Nice, but I'll pass.

I think that rumour was killed already. What changes for Zen 3 is the unified L3, also more of it (probably).
This will be a nice upgrade to replace my 2600, in late 2021 or early 2022 (unless this motherboard dies).
Astyanax
what?
no it doesn't, its a gen 3 chipset.
Evildead666
I think he means the slots directly connected to the CPU could function at PCIe 4.0 speeds, before it was taken back.
Even though, they are not Chipset lanes, which are all PCIe 3.0 anyway on everything below X570
anticupidon
@Astyanax easy, you know what I meant.
Maybe wrong words used, but @Evildead666 was spot on.

Late 2020... ouch!
Undying
Its not like they are in a hurry with intel in this state.
DrDoU
this is what i am looking to do as my 2600 has no problems running what i want.Seen some where of talk about 5nm in 2021

I thought AMD was on track with Zen3 for a release in the first half of 2020?
Edit: Did a little research. This news came from the Chinese site MyDrivers which is the same site that is saying AMD will be using a third party for chipsets.At this point I'm inclined not to believe any of this but if it does turn out true I will trust them in the future on AMD related rumors. Neither of these rumors makes a lot of since to me because once you make your own chipset you have already incurred the costs and its not like the next gen will have a generational feature like PCIe 4.0 etc. I think I am left believing AMD will have Ryzen 4000 out in the first half of 2020 and will still make their own chipset but hopefully on TSMC's old 7nm process so passive cooling can be used.
