AMD has announced that the highly anticipated X870E and X870 AM5 motherboards will be officially launched on September 30, 2024. These two motherboards not only inherit the compatibility advantages of the AM5 socket, but also have been comprehensively upgraded in terms of performance, features, and design, bringing users a better user experience.
In terms of interface support, both AMD X870E and X870 AM5 motherboards will support USB 4.0 technology. USB 4.0 brings unprecedented convenience to users with its high-speed transfer, low latency, and multitasking capabilities. Whether it's data transfer, video transfer, or device connection, USB 4.0 provides a faster, more stable, and more efficient solution.
In addition to USB 4.0 support, both motherboards will also support PCIe 5.0 GPUs and NVMe storage devices. PCIe 5.0 technology has brought a quantum leap forward in graphics processing and data transfer, allowing users to enjoy smoother, more realistic game graphics and more efficient data processing speeds. At the same time, the support of NVMe storage devices will also bring users faster system response speed and larger storage space.
In terms of design, the AMD X870E and X870 AM5 motherboards have also been fully upgraded. The X870E motherboard uses two Promontory 21 chips, and the overall specifications are similar to the X670E, but with the addition of USB 4.0 support. It offers 12 PCIe 4.0 lanes and 8 PCIe 3.0 lanes, as well as PCIe x16 and M.2 interfaces provided by the CPU, both of which support PCIe 5.0. This design makes the motherboard a great improvement in performance and expandability.

The X870 motherboard, on the other hand, uses a Promontory 21 chip, which is consistent with the X870E in terms of PCIe 5.0 and USB 4.0 support. However, the number of general-purpose PCIe lanes has shrunk to only 8 PCIe 4.0 and 4 PCIe 3.0. Despite the reduction in the number of channels, the X870 motherboard is still able to meet the needs of most users and provides excellent performance and stability.
In addition, AMD X870E and X870 AM5 motherboards also support optimized AMD EXPO files, which can achieve memory support of up to 8000MT/s. This is undoubtedly good news for those who are looking for extreme performance. The support for high-speed memory will make the system smoother and faster when handling large games, complex tasks, and multitasking runs.
AMD also promises that the AM5 socket will be supported until 2027, which means that users don't need to worry about needing to replace the motherboard in the short term. This commitment provides users with a more stable and reliable upgrade path, giving them more confidence in choosing AMD X870E and X870 AM5 motherboards as their first choice for upgrades.
Overall, the launch of AMD X870E and X870 AM5 motherboards will bring users a better experience. Both motherboards have been fully upgraded and optimized in terms of performance, functionality, and design. For those who are looking for high performance, high efficiency, and high stability, the AMD X870E and X870 AM5 motherboards are undoubtedly a good choice.
