Potential contender for future AM5 build I'm planning.


The B850 boards are not out yet, but are expected to arrive in 2025. However, while looking up on them I came across this board which does look interesting and somewhat slid under the radar having, maybe, launched in the last few weeks. Things are a bit vague on that point. B+H lists it as coming soon, Amazon has only two sellers which is odd and while Newegg lists it, the reviews there are only for other models. Seems to be going for ~$450.

eTeknix has a review from 4 weeks ago.

 
Tweaktown has a good review in which they paired a Ryzen 9 9950X with a CoolerMasterliquid 360 AIO, 4070 Ti Super, and 32 GB DDR5-6000 CL30. The 9950X pushed it to max performance and VRM and SSD ran hot, but they were still within specs. Otherwise, the board champed it out, holding its own close to and sometimes besting the 870E Hero. Amazon now has them in stock for $449-489.
