Sometime mid-2019, AMD will launch its 3rd generation Ryzen "Zen 2" processors with core counts of up to 16 cores in the AM4 package. These processors will launch alongside the new AMD 500-series desktop chipset family, led by the X570. AMD assures backwards compatibility of these processors with older chipsets provided motherboard vendors support their customers with BIOS updates. You'll probably need a 500-series chipset motherboard to use PCI-Express gen 4.0 connectivity, while older chipsets will limit connectivity to gen 3.0 (not that there are any GPUs that use gen 4.0). 
 
Nice to know that these motherboards are ready for PCI-E gen 4 whenever GPUs are available to use it.

    Not a fan of big plastic covers on mobos. Looking forward to seeing how these turn out though in general. Thinking about a replacement for the parent's APU build done in 2014.
