Today, a tweet came up where Gigabyte allegedly sent SkatterBencher their X670E Aorus Master motherboard. These motherboards are set to launch with the Ryzen 7000 CPUs on 15th September, 2022. Looks beautiful, doesn’t it? This is the second best offering from Gigabyte for its X670E lineup. The motherboard features a 16+2+2 power phase along with 4 DDR5 slots. For storage, support up to 4 M.2 SSDs is provided, where two utilize the PCIe Gen5 x4 and the other two utilize the Gen4 x4 interface. Leaks show that AMD plans to announce its Zen4 lineup on 29th August, 2022. Just 2 weeks later, the press embargo will be lifted allowing for reviewers to benchmark these CPUs. And on the 15th of September, AMD will officially launch their Zen4 CPUs.
