The latest hi-tech word for 2020 is ‘Drop-in’ … and that’s exactly what you need to do when you upgrade to the new AMD Ryzen 5000 series processor (that’s if you already own a B550 or X570 motherboard). Beat that Intel!
Taken from Videocardz … AMD promised to deliver broad support for its next-generation Zen3 processors to 500-series motherboards. The company has so far not confirmed if there are any plans to launch 600-series motherboards, but there is a strong belief that the 500 series might be, in fact, the last AM4 series.
AMD confirmed that Zen3 support will come to select 400 series motherboard. This is of course the fallout from AMD’s initial announcement that 400 series will not receive Zen3 support. The public outrage and confusion as to why a few month old B450 motherboards somehow cannot support next-gen CPUs had caused AMD to change this decision.
This week AMD confirmed that Zen3 support on 400 series will arrive with Beta firmware around January 2021. Motherboard makers have already confirmed that they are ready to support Zen3 CPUs and they are only waiting for proper BIOSes. Thus, we believe that AMD is artificially limiting support and the delay is unnecessary.
