AMD next generation AM5 motherboard will support USB4,I / O on a par with Intel platform

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, July 20 / PRNewswire-FirstCall-Asianet /-- although the AMD AM5 platform is very aggressive in the areas of DDR5 and PCIe 5, it seems to have been hesitating on USB4 (mostly Thunder 4), which Intel supported two years ago.

Su Zifeng, CEO of AMD, has revealed that AMD is preparing to provide USB4 support in its AM5 desktop platform, and she has visited a number of suppliers in Taiwan.

Wccftech believes that Xiangshuo Technology, a well-known motherboard chipset and USB controller chip manufacturer, will be responsible for providing Thunderbolt 4 support for the future AMD platform. Because the company is far ahead of its competitors in this respect, especially in USB 4 technology, and has been certified by the USB-IF Association. It is said that the company is expected to start mass production of the new USB4 master next year.

If nothing happens, the new generation of AM5 platform and Ruilong 8000 series processors will not be released until next year, when CTOnews.com will bring you more reports.
