That would certain be an interesting idea but idk if AMD will go that route anytime soon since they could sell you a dGPU instead. But maybe later down the line, that would be pretty nuts.

Given the leaked diagram for an Asus board, I doubt AMD wil go that route as well

I expected the two chipsets to be together in the same package, not split and so far away one from the other.

I just hope those chipsets don't require active cooling like initial X570 boards. It is also very strange having two chipsets which suggests AMD is trying to add in additional IO capabilities but they aren't integrating that directly into the CPU. It will be interesting to see how it turns out.

I don't think they'll require active cooling, specially with one of them being just below the only PCIe slot (weird). Otherwise, that chip will get toasty ver, very soon.
