However, premium performance comes at a high price. At the time of writing, you can expect to spend between $300 and $700 on an X870E motherboard. The GIGABYTE X870E AORUS Elite WIFI7 is the most affordable option I found on Amazon, for example, at $320 in the US. A premium model like the ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Hero costs around $700 and is aimed at users who want the very best in terms of performance, features, and looks.
The X870 chipset is AMD’s high-end AM5 variant. While it shares some tunisia telegram data similarities with the flagship X870E chipset, the X870 takes a slightly more affordable approach. It retains PCI Express 5.0 support for graphics and storage, but reduces the total number of available PCIe lanes. Here’s how the direct CPU PCIe 5.0 lanes are distributed:
Sixteen lanes are dedicated to graphics cards via PCIe 5.0, allowing one GPU to run at x16 or two GPUs at x8 each.
Four lanes support PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD, delivering ultra-fast storage speed.
Four of the lanes are General Purpose Pairing GPP, giving motherboard manufacturers the ability to use them for additional features or components.
The X870 chipset also includes 12 more PCIe lanes, eight of which are PCIe 4.0 and four are PCIe 3.0 for additional connectivity options.
