Hi everyone, it's been 20 years since I built a pc and having had an dell then an imac and a cheap laptop I thought I'd try and build one again. 1 year later and no closer to a gpu, I came across this forum from the elite page(may be the only way of a slim chance of getting a gpu) Quick question, I was planning on going AMD route, but from a quick look, does EVGA not do motherboards for ryzen chips? or have i been looking in the intel section only? If they don't, any reason why? thanks

EVGA has a tight relationship with Intel so this is very unlikely. Partnering with AMD will hurt their relationship with Intel so this likely won't happen

i think EVGA should start investing into AMD side of things, particularly AMD mobos i meant, have you seem the CPU sales lately?

Yup, I agree. They're definitely missing out, and dealing with AMD hasn't hurt the other AIB's that produce intel mobo's. I for one prefer an AMD cpu at mo. Would be happy to look at an EVGA mobo, so that's a potential lost sale. MSI, Gigabyte or Asus it is then

They can not stock a supply of Intel boards as is. They only make a few boards as is of each chipset. Classified, FTW and a small micro. Make a batch it sells out then they go to the newer chipset, wash rinse repeat. EVGA is a small company compared to many others that have 5 or more models and chipsets for the same socket. EVGA is an Intel and Nvidia partner, AMD is the competition and maybe made a deal with EVGA to stay brand loyal EVGA is a privately owned company and maybe the owner does not like AMD for what ever reason. Maybe a bad experience from years ago when they did make AMD boards and they weren't really all that great They only made AMD MB when Intel made the chipset for it. Times are tough for a GPU,PSU,MB hardware Co. that can't get stock to sell as is. They have no GPUs, higher end PSUs and no MB for sale in the EVGA store. Maybe the money involved for R&R to do it is not there. There could be many other reasons

intel being intel, and nvidia being nvidia, im pretty sure both company has pressured EVGA not to produce 'competition products' under whatever form of contract so ya, being a smaller company really sucks

just had a look, EVGA has 146 employees (last look with 70 employees and turnover of $65M)...compare that with MSI 2300+ employees(2018) and $5.23Billion revenue in 2020. So now I understand the focus on intel and nvidea. AMD had Sapphire(as an example) as a corresponding company that focuses on AMD. They're just not big enough to branch out like the big boys, so concentrate on their chosen partners and produce quality goods. as a side note it said a lot of the engineers at EVGA moved from another company Epox, that coincidentally made great AMD mobo's

Just saw their little trailer 'A new darkness is coming'... X570S board . and here I just bought the MSI B550 Carbon. Haven't unpacked it yet, so they better hurry up, though guessing being new, will be priced high to start

This is a question many people are asking, but there is no further info at this time.

It has been confirmed. EVGA is making DARK and FTW motherboards on X570S chipset. It will come out in Q3 2021. Gamers Nexus made a video about it, see hereUnfortunatelly there is not going to be a B550 board, thus no extreme RAM overclocking

Not necessarily. EVGA has Kingpin working with these boards. And they've still got a few months to bang on them. I wouldn't completely dismiss the prospect.

Any chance evga will sell a few of these as Mini-ITX boards and a super portable case to go with it?

You are 100% right. It will be a hell of a motherboard and I really think we could be able to see new CPU records, but from RAM perspective X570 is not the best chipset for extreme overclocking on AM4. The main reason why B550 is better for RAM extreme OC is BCLK, which gets unstable on X570 when you push it higher. If you want to know more about this topic, see Buildzoid's video here
