AMD partners in China have just unveiled the official X870 & X870E launch dates, also revealing possible pricing for the upcoming models.
Anticipation for AMD’s new X870 & X870E motherboard lineups is starting to grow as we near their expected release date – which has just been announced by some of AMD’s partners in China. The new lineup of boards are said to launch on the 30th of September (what everyone had already speculated) at 21:00 Beijing time.
AMD has been incredibly quiet on the new chipset front recently, despite some major leaks surfacing over the last couple of weeks. In fact, the brand haven’t actually released an official release date statement yet – but it seems partners have taken that privilege away from them this time around.

X870 & X870E launch dates confirmed in Beijing
According to latest sources, all major motherboard vendors (ASRock, ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI) will launch their respective models at 21:00 Beijing time on the 30th of September, 2024. As expected, the X870 models look set to be the cheaper range according to unofficial Chinese pricing (see above) – with products starting from as low as 2099 Yuan or $299.
At that price, the entry-level X870 models would hit shelves for around $100 cheaper than industry experts expected – which is a great sign if to be believed. That said, the Gigabyte X870E AORUS PRO Ice was rumored to launch at $299, around $200 cheaper than the latest Chinese leaks.
The new X870 & X870E motherboards will fully support AMD’s new Ryzen 9000 series CPU lineup, alongside the latest AGESA BIOS version that allows users to enable higher TDP for better performance. With 5 short days to go to the launch, it’ll be interesting to see how long AMD stay quiet on this one. It’s surely only a matter of time before the brand release an official statement regarding the latest chipset motherboards.
