Gigabyte preparing X570S motherboards, could be for AMD Zen3+ “Warholâ€Â CPUs

Maybe that leak about Zen+ really was real as it wouldn't make any sense to come out with a new chipset for the current lineup of CPUs.

So it sounds like this will be small revision with a more efficient chip-set and passive cooling. With Warhol rumored to be incoming this is good time to release a new board.

Update from the article -

Update: Moore’s Law is Dead claims that the S stands for ‘Silent’, which implies that those boards will rely on passive cooling:

The "S" in "X570S" simply stands for "silent" just so everyone knows.

This is a new more efficient X570 chipset, not some preparation for a "Zen 3+."

Furthermore, I suspect people (including me at times) have been overhyping the possibilities of "Zen 3+" a little… https://t.co/QEpWAQhBu2

I'd be curious as to what the difference will be as the Dark Hero is already passive cooling. Granted it's a $400 mobo but I doubt there's anything very care worthy in terms of actual cooling in the Mobo. Still, it will be interesting.

Kinda lame that Zen 3+ won't be happening. I do still suspect they might do a special XT version at the very least like they did last year with the 3000 series.
