The B550 motherboards will hit the market on June 16, with support for PCI-E 4.0

After a long wait since the X570 and Ryzen 3000 came out, users will finally have a cheaper option when buying a PCI-E 4.0 motherboard with the arrival of the B550 motherboards this June 16. According to rumors, this would be the date indicated to announce the chipset and allow manufacturers to launch their models.

According to leaked specifications, Although this chipset will not have PCI-E 4.0 lines, it will allow using the PCI-E 4.0 lines of the processor., so that users will be able to use this technology anyway. The 20 PCI-E 4.0 lines of the AMD Ryzen 3000 processors would be divided into 16 for the top PCI-E x16 port, and the remaining 4 will be for an M.2 connector. In case of having a second M.2 port, this will take PCI-E 3.0 lines from the chipset, having a lower speed, although in any case we will see speeds of around 3500MB / s.

It will be interesting to see the designs and quality of these motherboards, although if we see standards similar to those of the B450, they will surely be an excellent company even for the Ryzen 7, and not to mention the Ryzen 5 or the new Ryzen 3 3300X and 3100.
