Ron Perillo over at Modders Inc. snapped a handful of pictures of these MSI Ryzen motherboards on display while wandering the floor at CES 2017. According to Ron, there is a lot of excitement around these boards at the event.

Looks like they voided the warrantee- on their website that is. Couldn't find much on the link. Well, it;s official, I'm blind.
 
So Ryzen must be in the hands of the motherboard manufacturers which means an imminent launch, right?
 
What's the ETA for getting these with appropriate CPU's on [H] benches? Any word?
 
What are we looking at, like another 6 months until mainstream availability?
 
Nice, a Taichi version of the Asrock AM4 board. I will be sure to buy that one when it comes available. It may replace my X99 Taichi.

the white and black board appears to have an intel logo on it. hmmm....

lol Damn... I wanted to be the one to point out that curious tidbit! :(


And yea, I also couldn't find a single thing on their website regarding these pics, so who knows what's going on.
 
Needs "moar" SATA on those boards. The amount of of more will really depend in the number of PCIe lane that can be sacrificed to the M.2 slots.

With 4 SSDs, a RAID 1 general backup, and a blu ray drive I'm already over the 6 SATA limit.

I'm hoping it has an Intel network chipset. That would make me happy.

That's generally an easy fix though...

These boards are about as useful as a chocolate teapot without a Ryzen chip.

soon tm... in the other motherboard article kyle said he already has his water cooling setup ready to go if/when he gets a ryzen chip so probably a month or two maybe??

I thought the AM3+ chip would work on these boards.

AM4 is dual channel DDR4 so am3+ will not work on it since the cpu's only support DDR3. consider AM3+ chips officially retired as the mistake AMD wants to forget they ever made.

i think the standard for years from AMD has been to only have 6 sata ports. although since they'll still have legacy PCI support at least i can still use my pci sata card which will had 4 more ports for things i don't care about raw performance on.

Not as far as I know, just Carrizo (Bristol-Ridge) was going to be, as a stop-gap, since it has a DDR4 controller. (Which is how AM4 systems through vendors like Dell and HP have been available for a few months already.)

Naw. My MSI A88X-G45-GAMING has 8 ports and it isn't through an add-on chip (at least I'm 99% sure it isn't, the website doesn't state it as being)
From what I'm seeing, none of the X370 boards have PCI, and I don't believe any of the X350s did either. Though, I think one of the 320/300 models did, but given as they lack overclocking, that sorta kills it for most of us :p

it's really going to depend on the market they're being sold in but we'll probably see more with pci slots, although every amd board i've had that has had more than 6 sata ports has always had the extra ports on a seperate sata controller but i completely skipped the bulldozer fiasco so i don't know how it was done on those boards.
 
I clicked on the pic on the mobile news page. The ad was clearer than the pic of the mobos.

Zooming in made it worse.
