- B550M GAMING

The exact specifications of AMD’s B550 chipset remain a mystery, but today’s development could mean that they’ll be detailed soon. Rumors suggest a lack PCIe 4.0 support through the chipset, but time will tell whether that’s true or not.
Additionally, the chipset fan from X570 boards are said to be gone. That would be great news for budget builders who want less moving parts and potentially quieter operation.
The EEC has also outed GIGABYTE’s upcoming Z490 (Intel) boards. There’s fourteen in total, which include the likes of the Z490 AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE, Z490 DESIGNARE, and Z490 AORUS ULTRA-GU.
