ASUS Teases Collage of Upcoming AMD X570 Motherboards
With AMD expected to launch its 3rd generation Ryzen processor family at the 2019 Computex, the show is expected to have unveilings of several compatible motherboards based on the new AMD X570 chipset. ASUS posted a collage picture that teases its upcoming X570 lineup. This appears to include boards from pretty much all of ASUS's brands, including the high-end ROG Crosshair, the upper mainstream ROG Strix, the mainstream TUF Gaming, and the sober Prime series. From this, the ROG Strix board appears to be the first one we've come across that doesn't use a fan-heatsink to cool the 15W TDP X570 chipset. The Ryzen 3000 "Matisse" processor and X570 chipset make up AMD's "Valhalla" desktop platform.

Motherboard makers didn't really believe in Ryzen back then, and I don't blame them for that. The AM3+ platform was probably no cash cow for any of them.
Going to build a server system later this year and i dont want to buy a crappy PCI-E board with more SATA ports if i can get x8 on the motherboard
There are 22 X470 boards listed here, and 5 of them have 8 SATA ports. So yeah, they're in a minority, but not that uncommon. I expect a similar amount of boards with X570.

What are the pros of having a X570 in a server? Do you really need that?
Really annoying that many boards these days only have x6 as every single motherboard i have had since 2007 all have had x8 and the board i have now has x10 SATA ports
I am waiting for the 16 TB drives to show up and i will be getting 2-4 of those to replace older and smaller drives i have now
ASRock actually has two X370 boards with 10 SATA, so yeah, the number of ports are dropping. :/
Otherwise i have to ditch either the SATA SSD or the Blu-Ray drive and i really dont want that, NVME drives are a waste of money for my use case and they cost quite a lot more than AHCI drives where i live
Are all PCIe SATA boards crappy though?

Because of where the PCI-E slots are i will need extra long SATA cables that can reach the drives and they will probably have to go across the main chamber of the case which not only looks ugly it can decrease air flow
So its extra money for PCI-E card with extra SATA ports its more money for extra long SATA cables it looks ugly and messy and its all around just worse than having those 2x more ports on the motherboard
I am not even sure if those PCI-E cards i can find supports S.M.A.R.T.
Its too much money time and effort and i really dont want that so having x8 on the motherboard is a must its easier its cheaper its better and its looks better
Or is it masterfully hidden with the collage?
Looks like different MB pieces are used.
I said that it could if you got x4-8 SATA cables going across the main chamber
I also suggested a slower nvme based m.2 drive which are priced a lot closer to SATA. Mushkin helix-l is $120 for 1tb and a lot faster than sata.
We dont have Mushkin in Denmark so thats not an option sadly
What i need is size not speed so if prices drop i might go with the 4 TB 860 Evo and no 4 TB NVME drive exist that i know of?
There are cheaper options than the evo.;)
Anyway...this is off topic.. ;)
The 4 TB costs too much right now but there have been rumors for a while about price drops so might go with the 4 TB and NVME dont go above 2 TB as far as i know
