AMD announced the second generation of the Ruilong thread tearer platform during the Taipei Computer Show, with a maximum of 32 cores and 64 threads, which doubled directly from the previous generation, but also put forward higher requirements on the motherboard, because the thermal design power consumption rose to 250W.
At present, each family is actively upgrading the new X399 motherboard (temporarily there should be no X499), the focus is on power supply design to support the higher power thread tearer second generation.
Gigabyte has designed a top-notch X399 Aorus Xtreme , Powered by 10+3 phase digital, with Fins-Array stacked heat sink fins, it can directly contact the heat pipe, and the heat dissipation effect is increased by 40%. It can perfectly support 32 core 64 threads.
At the same time, the new motherboard is almost perfect in all other aspects, including eight reinforced DDR4 memory slots, four reinforced PCI-E x16 expansion slots, three M.2 interfaces (supporting NVMe SSD), dual Gigabit NICs + 10 megabytes NIC + Wi-Fi wireless network card, integrated full metal backplane, at the same time in the design of the lighting effect is more conservative, only the bottom transparent RGB LED, to avoid excessive light pollution.
In addition, GIGABYTE motherboards will abandon the previous digital sequence naming of Aorus Gaming 3, 5, 7, 9 and change to Aorus Ultra, Pro, Master, Xtrem e - it is not easy to distinguish grades.
