Erying Releases Its First AMD-Based Motherboard: The Alkiad B650 ITX D5
Chinese OEM brand Erying presented its first AMD-based motherboard, the Alkiad B650 ITX D5. The overall design of the Erying Alkiad B650 ITX D5 sports a white PCB with black components and is equipped with an EPS 8-pin power connector alongside a 24-pin ATX connector. 5 V ARGB connectors are included for those who cannot live without a colorful build. The VRM is based on an 8+2+1 phase power delivery design and covered by a decent heatsink, more than enough for a budget AM5 65 W platform in a standard ITX 170 x 170 mm format.
The Alkiad B650 ITX D5 motherboard has 2 DDR5 DIMM memory slots, supports 6400+ (OC) MT/s, and Intel XMP 3.0 / AMD EXPO profiles. The Erying motherboard offers 1x PCIe 4.0 ×16 and 1x PCIe 4.0 ×4 M.2 slots, and 4x SATA III ports while the Realtek RTL8125BG provides 1x 2.5GbE RJ45 connectivity. The rear I/O panel offers 4x USB 2.0, 3x USB-A 5 Gbps and 1x USB-C 10 Gbps ports, 1x DP and 1x HDMI connectors and the usual audio combo (one S/PDIF and a pair of 3.5 mm). The motherboard comes before AMD's expected expansion of its Ryzen 9000 series "Granite Ridge" desktop processor family in Q1 2025 with new 65 W CPU models and the introduction of the AMD B850 chipset. There is no exact information yet regarding pricing and availability.
