ASUS Confirms Existence of X590 Boards for AMD Ryzen CPUs
According to VideoCardz'es sources at ASUS, they have received confirmation that ASUS is working on new motherboards for AMD's unannounced chipset offerings, X590 and possibly even X599. In ASUS'es internal documentation two motherboards are appearing with X590 name, PRIME X590-PRO and ROG STRIX X590-E.
These motherboards are named similarly as the current offering from ASUS, the PRIME X570-PRO and ROG STRIX X570-E Gaming, so even though that we don't know if these models will ever hit the market, there is great possibility. Additionally, there is another chipset refresh coming, but now for the HEDT space. ASUS is working on ZENITH II EXTREME, an update to first ZENITH EXTREME motherboard (based on X399 chipset), which is expected to feature updated X599 chipset and should support new ThreadRipper 3000 series of CPUs. For now, we don't have any details of either two chipsets nor the improvements they will bring.

This is probably just X570 for the next TR iteration. Or at least that's my guess.
I just got this from Gure3d looks like it is for AM4.
"As you know, AMD uses the X570's design of the I/O dies of the Ryzen 3000 CPUs. There are a total of 24 PCIe 4.0 lanes on the processors, four of which are reserved for the interlink to the chipset. The X570 has 16 PCIe lanes plus four for the uplink to the processor. Perhaps the new X590 chipset has a full 24 PCIe lanes as that is the only tangible different I think of."
But does it play Crysis ?Ah cheap fanless version would be apreciated
I'm just saying anything that ends with "99" has been HEDT and if they use that naming convention for a non HEDT part, it would be confusing.
