AMD Ryzen Threadripper X399 Motherboards for July 25th!

Ryzen Threadripper X399

AMD’s Threadripper is officially being launched early August. Beliefs are that AMD will reveal the performance and final details of Threadripper, at SIGGRAPH in 10 days time. Of course, having a high-end processor is all well and good. However, if you don’t have a motherboard for it to go into, it is irrelevant.

Our friends over at VideoCardz managed to get an inside scoop of some of the board images for the world to see.

X399 Motherboards

AMD is working hard alongside its partner’s to provide new X399 boards for the platform. Currently, there have only been for X399 motherboards to date. These are offerings from ASUS, ASRock and Gigabyte. However, MSI has indicated they are working on the platform too although no information is revealed yet. There is a high chance that we will see multiple M.2 slots and higher PCIe lane numbers due to the high support for more PCIe lanes of Threadripper.
