Introduction to ASRock’s Newest Offerings
Recently, press outlets have reported on ASRock’s unveiling of two new motherboard models: the B650M Pro X3D and the B650M Pro X3D WiFi (6E). These additions are designed to leverage the capabilities of AMD’s previous-generation chipset, the B650, promising a gaming experience optimized for the latest AMD Ryzen X3D processors.
Features and Specifications
ASRock advertises the B650M Pro X3D models as delivering superior stability and compatibility alongside enhanced performance, making them ideal for both gaming and content creation. While specific pricing information for these new motherboards is currently unavailable, it is anticipated that they will feature a competitive price compared to other models in the market. Notably, the B650M Pro X3D has not yet launched at retail, which has resulted in some excitement and speculation among potential buyers.
Design Comparison
A surprising revelation comes from the visual comparison between the B650M Pro X3D and ASRock’s earlier B850M Pro RS motherboard design. Coverage from Videocardz highlights a striking similarity, with only minor differences in printed model names. ASRock has employed a “downcycle” approach, reusing the design of the B850M Pro RS board design, which can already be found on sale for $148, compared to its regular price of $180. It is expected that the B650M Pro X3D will be competitively priced, possibly lower than its predecessor.
It’s worth noting that the launch of ASRock’s Pro X3D series is poised for limited regional availability, with a comprehensive global rollout not planned at this time, as stated by Videocardz. As anticipation grows, enthusiasts are eager to see how these new motherboards perform in real-world scenarios.
