The diagrams of the AMD X399 and X390 chipsets, leaked yesterday, for the AMD Ryzen HEDT platform, would be false, according to a Japanese media.
Yesterday we echoed the appearance on Reddit of the diagram of the X390 and X390 chipsets and a basic motherboard design or base for the AMD Ryzen HEDT generation of processors. Everything seemed to add up quite a bit, but today a Japanese media has highlighted some errors of who created these images and how they have edited them, in such a way that all the media ignore it and that they make it clear that these images are completely false, edited by someone with plenty of free time.
The first thing that stands out is the socket, where you can read 'socket AM4' and it is true that it is the same socket as the current motherboards and as we know, this new socket will be slightly larger, possibly more elongated, because internally it is They will mount four CCX modules, or what is the same, in the same DIE we will have two AMD Ryzen 7. It also stands out that the PCB design shows an Aura chip and two Intel I211AT chips, which are network chips, something that does not it is possible and that coincidentally quite coincides in design with the PCB schematic of the ASUS PRIME X370-PRO, as you can see.
They have highlighted in the Japanese media that the structure of the chipset and communication with the processor corresponds to an image of the PCB of Supero, a Japanese motherboard brand, where the X299 chipset and its structure can be seen. Specifically, the motherboard refers to the LGA3647 chipset, which has nothing to do with AMD, but is an Intel chipset and socket. They have just tweaked it and published it.
Honestly, this work has been quite good and it has happened to all of us, because the structure was quite logical and as we know that these new Ryzen HEDT will be Quad Channel and will support 2-Way SLI / CrossFireX x16 / x16. With this data, someone with free time has edited the images and converted them as if they were from the Ryzen HEDT.
