momomo_us has shared what appears to be the first official photos for the X570 DARK, EVGA’s first AM4 motherboard designed for Ryzen desktop processors.
Similar to the pre-existing DARK motherboard with Intel Z590 chipset, the X570 DARK features a predominately black design with numerous features that should satiate the demands of advanced overclockers. They include a 16 Phase Digital VRM, multiple sets of heat sinks complemented by a large copper heat pipe, and horizontally oriented memory slots. The reason for the latter is so the lanes can be closer to the CPU socket for better signal transmission.
