What about the X370s ?

The A320s running 5950X, Buildzoid is going to freak out! :roll:

Or, there's always this golden boy:

Even with that increased price, it's still the best deal fr a new 5700G system!

And if they didn't cheap-out on the motherboard design the upgrade would mean full 16x PCie slot!

Exactly. My x370 is not impressed lol

Another way to show off the 5950x is so efficient that can run on a A320 board, nevermind the X370 boards.
Sounds good for x570/b550 owners.

Awesome was to saw a 5600x or 5800x running on a hero six like the one I have.

5950X has an adjustable power limit from 45W up to 105W without PBO enabled, so it is easily handled by any board available.

why tho

a certain coin is very mineable on Ryzen CPUs. No need for a great mobo to do that at the lowest power use possible.

Why the hell not? If they also have support for 5000 series Ryzen APUs, OEMs can sell consumer level PCs cheaper.

Presumably the 5600G (and 5700G) will be getting serious price cuts as soon as the non-K Alder Lake CPUs hit retail. Alder Lake is comfortably beating Zen3 full-fat - specifically the 12600K is going toe-to-toe with 5800X. An i5-12500 is likely going to wipe the floor with the reduced-cache 5700G and the 5600G trails even that significantly.

So if the leaked $230 price of the i5-12500 is accurate, it's going to be really hard to sell a 5700G for more than $200 and a 5600G may go for as little as $150. For someone who bought the popular and well-priced 3000G in an A320 board, $150 is a great opportunity to triple their CPU and IGP at the same time.

I've never seen an A-series board in my life but I fully understand that A-series boards outsell B-series and X-series combined by no insignificant margin. There must be millions of them out in the wild just begging for a price-cut, drop-in upgrade.

Does this coin have a future or is it just another stupid flash in the pan like Chia? Proof of Work is a dying method for crypto viability and that's why Bitcoin trails Ethereum in terms of profitability and gains.

It's too bad the 5700G didn't have double the cache like the 5800x...........if it actually gets a price cut it would make a nice upgrade path. Still can depending on the price.

And I guess you're talking CPU wise, since W!zz mentioned the intel igpu is a few gens old and weak?

mechtechExactly. My x370 is not impressed lol

It'll come, hopefully. If they can add it to the A-series they're almost certainly going to add it to the entire 300-series eventually.

It's almost shocking how fast a 3950X is at 65W.
Sure, it's 15% slower but holy hell 85% of a full-fat, unrestricted 3950X is incredible at 65W.
I've yet to build any 5950X at reduced TDP but I'm sure they're equally impressive.

It's shit. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a fad, doesn't bring anything new to the table at all (it's called Raptoreum, lol)

The fact it has less cache means miners won't be snapping them up for the new coins that love AMD CPU's large cache, which will drive up their prices.

Crosshair 6 supports Ryzen 5800-5950.

Large cache need Ryzen CPUs which in turn need GPUs. Since GPUs are unicorn, I doubt this new coin will become so big that it threatens Ryzen stock.

As if B450/A520 boards weren't already dirt cheap...

I think it's rather a case of selling CPU, which would offer better profit that selling chipset.

Yeah, its gotta be something like that. It's a decent savings for the cheap-end to keep the existing mobo. And the 450/520 aren't much of an upgrade. Neither support PCI-E 4.0.

there is limitation on 16MB bioses, u get either agesa V1 or agesa V2, not both

Xe 32EU isn't much to write home about but Vega 7 isn't exactly new or powerful either.
The grass is just as dead on the other side - at least until Rembrandt arrives with GDDR5 and RDNA2.

Losing the 1xxx, as seen with Asus, would be worth the update, even losing 2xxx would be ok for me.

prtskgLarge cache need Ryzen CPUs which in turn need GPUs. Since GPUs are unicorn, I doubt this new coin will become so big that it threatens Ryzen stock.

They don't need to be current GPUs, they just need to be compatible with the PCIe standard and allow the CPU to boot so $10 will more than cover it (for now).

If this crypto actually takes off expect old junk like this the be scoured clean from the used market though.

rares495As if B450/A520 boards weren't already dirt cheap...

You can't readily buy an A320 board anymore, this is for existing A320 owners to keep their existing system going for a few more years.

We now just need support for TR and Epyc on A320! :)

Conveniently, only pre-Zen has to be dropped.

FWIW I ran 2400g on a B550 mobo for awhile while i was waiting on the 5600G launch. I know it is not the same but B550 does not officially support Zen1 CPUs/APUs. I was a bit wary updating the BIOS but slowly but surely I update to the latest bios, flashing just about every bios in between. They all worked fine.
Also PBO is working on my original 2400G mobo - Asrock AB350M. 300 series chipsets are not supposed to support PBO. But I have PBO and Curve Optimizer maxed out at +200 on 3600(nonX). The kicker is that the mobo eventually got bios support for BCLK OC as well. So I am running the 3600 at 104MHz BCLK and +208MHz (+2 multi) with turbo (4575MHz) fully functional. This works with both X370m and AB350m bioses flashed on the mobo.
Moral of the story is, AMD artificially limits the support and I believe for mobo manufacturers it is easier to compile newer bioses off the same base code so there is cross support for all the different generations.
