While the manufacturer itself will be giving further details on the Zen- 4 CPUs with an integrated RDNA-2 GPU, the first motherboard manufacturers will have their first motherboards for the new AM5 platform with them and will probably share initial information about the motherboards with the X670, B650 and probably also the X670E chipset.

Moreover , the latest AMD Socket AM5 motherboards including the gaming series of X670 Aorus Extreme, Master, Pro AX and X670 Aero D for designers will be first exposed in this exhibition as well.

Users can take a sneak peek at the advanced design and extensive features of PCIe 5.0 graphics slot and M.2 Gen5 interface on Gigabyte motherboards.
