AMD would already be preparing for the arrival of its next high-end platform for Zen 6 processors with a new chipset called X970E. Yet, contrary to what one might expect from a new generation, this chipset would not represent a technical revolution. After several leaks, AMD would largely retain the current chip-based architecture [...] The AMD X970E article: the future high-end chipset for Zen 6 would be very close to the current X870E appeared …
The future AMD X970E platforms, expected alongside the upcoming Ryzen processors based on Zen 6 architecture, could ultimately be based on an already well-known basis. According to the latest information, this new chipset would still use the Promontory 21 chip developed by ASMedia, exactly the same foundation as the current X870E and X670E. Therefore, AMD would not start completely from scratch for its future high-end desktop platform. Rather, t…
AMD X970E motherboards could use a refreshed PROM21 chipset
AMD’s next-generation Ryzen motherboards could be very similar to today’s designs This week, Biostar confirmed that it plans to showcase “next-generation AMD” motherboards at Computex 2026. While the company did not release any information about these motherboards, it did unveil that we would learn more very soon. According to the leaker MEGAsizeGPU, the next generation […] The post AMD X970E motherboards could use a refreshed PROM21 chipset app…
AMD X970E May Reuse Existing Chipset Silicon with DDR5 Upgrades
AMD’s next high-end desktop chipset, expected to launch as X970E, may not be based on entirely new chipset silicon. Current information points toward continued use of ASMedia’s Promontory 21 design, the same silicon foundation already used for X870E and X670E motherboards.
While the first rumors about an introduction of AMD's next desktop CPUs within the Computex 2026 have come to mind, it is now said that the X970E chipset for Ryzen X/10000 could only be a refresh from the refresh.
