ASRock announced the Z790 LiveMixer and B650 LiveMixer in October 2022, a new series of motherboards that were produced in partnership with streamers and content creators, featuring a maximum of 23 USB ports and other perks. According to a new video from Level1Techs, a special edition of the B650 LiveMixer has been going out to select reviewers, one that includes a PCIe add-on card that, when connected, effectively turns the motherboard into an X670-class product.

Didn't know you could daisy chain 2 amd chipsets.
Take a look at the block diagram of the AM5 X670 chipset. ;)

I don't see the point of ASRock's B650 LiveMixer board. If someone wants, or thinks they later may want the features of an X670 motherboard, it makes sense to buy one in the first place. The use of a unique PCIe add-on card seems like an inefficient approach to achieve that.
