BIOSTAR finalise la conception de la carte mère X670E Valkyrie Socket AM5

BIOSTAR finalized the design of its flagship Socket AM5 motherboard, the X670E Valkyrie. While the PCB design appears identical to the board BIOSTAR showed at Computex 2022, there are some aesthetic improvements, such as some ARGB lighting elements with acrylic diffusers on the large VRM heatsink and the chipset heatsink. La carte est alimentée par une combinaison d'ATX 24 broches, and two 8-pin EPS connectors. Powering the CPU is a 22-phase VRM that uses 105 DrMOS. The Socket AM5 is wired to four DDR5 slots, two PCI-Express 5.0 x16 emplacements (x16/NC or x8/x8), and a couple of M.2 Gen 5 slots.

Storage options on the BIOSTAR X670E Valkyrie include two M.2 slots with PCI-Express 5.0 Il existe sept PCI-Express, two additional M.2 slots with PCI-Express 4.0 Il existe sept PCI-Express, and six SATA 6 Ports Gbit/s. Besides the Gen 5 x16 slots from the CPU, there’s one PCI-Express 4.0 x16 (electrical x4) slot wired to the chipset, and an M.2 E-key slot for the WLAN card. There’s no WLAN module included with the board, but there’s preparation that includes two coaxial antenna jacks, and a cable leading up to the M.2 E-key slot. Wired networking comes from a 2.5 GbE interface powered by an Intel i225 controller. The board is expected to go on sale alongside Ryzen 7000 Un Zelda rare, in September.
