AMD X870 Chipset
For high-performance customization, build your PC with an AMD X870 motherboard for AMD Ryzen™ 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series processors. Fully overclockable, with USB 4.0 onboard, faster dual-channel DDR5 memory support, AMD EXPO™ technology and PCIe® 5.0 support for NVMes, set yourself up for extreme gaming and creating with an X870 motherboard.
Although the X870 chipset is not the highest AMD offer, its desktop motherboard layout makes it comparable to the X870E. There is no practical difference between the two chipsets for end-users, and it only depends on the motherboard manufacturer, which devices are linked to the specific CPU and chipset PCIe lanes.
