The Extreme Lineup
From what it seems, AMD’s Extreme (E) branding supports PCIe Gen 5.0 GPUs and a Gen 5.0 storage solution. However, if you move onto the non-extreme lineup, you can either choose a PCIe Gen 5.0 GPU or a storage device.
A Few Cut-Downs
The B650E chipset will ship with just 1 Promontory 21 chipset. This resultantly reduces the number of available lanes, so expect a slight decrease in performance if you’re an enthusiast. We now have a total of 4 chipsets for AMD’s X600 lineup.

Pricing
The pricing for the motherboards can be considered as a placeholder for now, however, we do have some numbers. MSI’s low-mid end X670 offerings are priced relatively higher than last-gen. Although bear in mind, these are just the initial price tags which will change on launch.
