AMD Bristol Ridge Hybrid processors as part of laptops are available on the market for several months, but in the desktop segment, they should be available this fall: first in the composition of finished computers HP and Lenovo , and then in the boxed version . Motherboard with socket Socket AM4, which require data processors, also will be available in the next quarter .
Looking at the slides of the presentation with the characteristics of AMD chipsets B350 and A320 , we might think that the future processors AMD Summit Ridge is exclusively senior chipset family with the proposed name of X370 . However, at a recent technology conference Deutsche Bank 2016 CTO AMD Mark Peypermaster made it clear that "provided Zen configuration flexibility" allows to set Summit Ridge processors on the same motherboard with Socket AM4, which will operate desktop versions Bristol Ridge. That is, no matter what chipset is used - the main thing that the board was equipped with a connector Socket AM4.
Apparently, X370 chipset will offer some benefits in the form of acceleration capacity and expansion of the system in comparison with the more accessible B350 and A320. By the way, Mark Peypermaster added that in the server segment processors with Zen architecture will offer similar flexibility to configure the system.
