MSI Prepares X870E "GODLIKE" Flagship Motherboard for AM5 Platform Processors

MSI is set to launch its most advanced AM5 motherboard to date: the MEG X870E GODLIKE. This flagship model is designed to support AMD's Ryzen 9000 series processors and beyond. The MEG X870E GODLIKE boasts an impressive 28-phase power delivery system with 110 A power stages, surpassing its predecessor's capabilities. This robust VRM design ensures a stable power supply even for the most demanding scenarios of next-generation CPUs. The motherboard's E-ATX form factor provides ample space for its array of features, including support for DDR5 memory speeds exceeding 8000 MT/s and a capacity of up to 256 GB. Connectivity is a strong suit for this motherboard, featuring eight USB Type-C ports with varying speeds of up to 40 Gbps. Storage options include five M.2 slots (two PCIe Gen 5 and three Gen 4) and four SATA III ports.

For graphics, the board offers two PCIe Gen 5.0 slots. MSI has also included several user-friendly features, such as EZ M.2 and PCIe release mechanisms, making component installation and removal a breeze. The M.2 slots are equipped with MSI's Shield Frozr heatsinks, ensuring optimal thermal performance for NVMe SSDs. Perhaps most intriguing is the inclusion of an additional 8-pin power connector, specifically designed to support future multi-GPU setups like NVIDIA's anticipated RTX 50 "Blackwell" series. While pricing details are yet to be announced, the MEG X870E GODLIKE is expected to carry a premium price tag, reflecting its top-tier status in MSI's lineup.

EVGA Made an AMD X670E Classified Motherboard, Prototype Fetches $1300 in Auction

EVGA designed an enthusiast segment AMD X670E chipset motherboard for the Socket AM5 platform, which never made it to the mass market. It had even planned to give the board its coveted Classified brand, and sell as the X670E Classified. Prototypes of this board fetched over $1,300 in auction. The board is built in the E-ATX form-factor like most of the EVGA Classified series motherboards; and packs a powerful CPU VRM, besides several overclocker-friendly features, such as top-oriented DDR5 memory slots, side-facing I/O (including power inputs), and in general, a decluttered layout that won't get in the way of extreme cooling solutions.

There were four such prototypes with Jiacheng Liu, a hardware enthusiast, each of which went under the hammer. The only trouble with these prototypes is that they're bare—they don't include heatsinks for the CPU VRM or the chipset, let alone heatsinks for the two M.2 Gen 5 NVMe slots that don't eat into the Gen 5 x16 PEG. Another problem with these boards is that they're not supported by EVGA, and only come with their initial BIOS that supports Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4" processors, but not the upcoming Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5." We doubt if these even support the Ryzen 7000X3D series, which is probably the main reason the boards didn't fetch way more than $1,300 a piece at the auctions. Enthusiasts might still figure out a way to BIOS-mod and encapsulate the latest AGESA.

Gigabyte Announces the TRX50 AI TOP Motherboard for AMD Threadripper

At Computex last week, we got a first look at Gigabyte's new TRX50 AI TOP motherboard—where TOP stands for trillions of operations per second—designed for AMD's Threadripper and Threadripper Pro CPUs. Now the company has released the full specifications of the TRX50 AI TOP and the board is packed to the brim with features. The E-ATX board is home to four PCIe x16 slots, all of which can operate in PCIe 5.0, but one can be limited to PCIe 4.0, depending on your choice of CPU. There's also four NVMe M.2 slots, with CPU dependent functionality. Other features include eight DIMM slots, but these are again CPU dependent, two 10 Gbps Ethernet interfaces via a pair of Marvell AQtion AQC113C controllers, WiFi 7 via a Qualcomm QCNCM865 module and dual audio chips, one for the rear ports and one for the front panel audio.

As this is a 2024 model, USB4 is of course also part of the package, but only one of the two USB4 supports DP Alt-mode, due to there only being one DP input. The board also has an internal USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gbps) header for a case mounted USB-C port, a further six rear 5 Gbps USB Type-A ports, plus a pair of internal headers for a further four 5 Gbps USB Type-A ports. The board also has four SATA ports, a 16+8+4 power phase design, a 14-layer PCB, a debug display and the now common easy release features for the M.2 drive heatsinks and the graphics card. The TRX50 AI TOP also sports what Gigabyte calls "UC BIOS" which has a "User-Centred intuitive UX with Quick Access function", but there's currently no details of how this differs from previous UEFI releases from Gigabyte. There was no word on pricing.

Thermaltake Outs View 270 TG ARGB Case with Pillarless Left Corner

Thermaltake today rolled out the View 270 TG ARGB, a line of ATX mid-tower cases featuring a pillarless front-left corner, for a more unimpeded view of your build. Much like the ZALMAN P10, this case doesn't feature a wrap-around single-piece glass, but rather two planar tempered glass panels that meet at the corner, so you'll notice the edge line. Still, this is better than an inch-thick pillar. Also like the ZALMAN P10, the Thermaltake View 270 TG ARGB features a horizontally partitioned layout that extends to even its exterior—the tempered glasshouse only covers the upper compartment. The bottom compartment with the PSU- and drive bays feature static perforated panels along the left- and front sides; and is only accessible from the single piece right side-panel. The right panel features perforations toward the front, aligning with the side-facing radiator mount. An interesting aspect about this mount is that it's located entirely in the crawlspace behind the motherboard tray, it doesn't intrude into the motherboard tray compartment, and so you can mount a 360 mm radiator without its fans impeding your long graphics cards in any way.

The motherboard tray seats E-ATX (or smaller) motherboards with 7 expansion slots; you get room for graphics cards up to 42 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 18 cm in height, so there's plenty of room to wrestle with your graphics card's 12VHPWR cable. Fan and radiator mounts, besides the 3x 120 mm side-facing mount detailed above, include three 140 mm / 120 mm top mounts that can hold a radiator as large as 360 mm; and a 120 mm rear exhaust. The partition dividing the bottom and top compartments is perforated, and you can mount up to three 120 mm fans here. The case measures 230 mm x 454 mm x 456 mm (WxDxH), weighing 6.3 kg. All its metal bits are made of SECC steel. The case comes in four color trims—Black (CA-1Y7-00M1WN-00), Snow (CA- 1Y7-00M6WN-00), Hydrangea Blue (CA-1Y7-00MFWN-000, and Matcha Green (CA-1Y7-00MEWN-00). The included rear 120 mm fan comes with addressable RGB lighting. The company didn't reveal pricing.

On the sides, the case carries two tempered glass panels held by thumb screws in the corners. An odd shape perforates the top part of the aluminium sheet.

The internal structure is interesting, as the case is built for water cooling of the system. While the motherboard tray can support any format from Mini-ITX to E-ATX, the tray itself can be rotated, reversed, and removed entirely based on user preference. For radiator setup, the 977EK concept case can accommodate up to 420 mm radiators with 45 mm thickness at both the top and bottom of the chassis. Additionally, the case has support for 350 mm GPU, 7 or 8 PCIe slots (depending on the configuration), a PSU of 160 mm length, and an option for either one 3.5-inch drive bay or two 2.5-inch bays. The final production case will see some changes, as EK notes; however, they won't be too significant.
