AMD's Ryzen 3000 processors stormed onto shelves on 7 July to a stream of largely positive reviews. They're hardly perfect, but the consensus seems to be that they offer great performance and bang for your buck, especially when compared to the Intel Core i9-9900K. But to make the most of Ryzen 3000, you'll also need an X570 motherboard, which supports PCIe 4.0.
However, while the Ryzen 3000 chips may excel in terms of performance-per-dollar, the X570 motherboards will still cost you a fair amount. In June, MSI CEO Charles Chiang talked about how X570 would be priced higher, due in large part to the inclusion of PCIe 4.0. The X570 chipset also draws more power, so board makers have also taken to implementing active cooling solutions, which further adds to the cost. Finally, X570 also sees the introduction of new and higher-end models that echo AMD's ambitions to conquer the high-end CPU market.
Chips like the 12-core Ryzen 9 3900X are really fast, so why not offer a slate of premium motherboards as well?
