They consistently deliver for every generation, making it odd to disrupt their streak of launching a brand-new mobile line with a fresh CPU.
I need to wait because I don’t feel confident using the X570 in the long run. The fan isn’t reliable, and I’m worried about the noise it produces.
Consider choosing the B550 model. It offers nearly all the capabilities of the X570. As long as your setup doesn’t require more than one PCIe 4.0 device beyond the GPU and first SSD, the B550 won’t surpass the B550 in performance. The B550 also lacks a fan. I believe AMD decided not to release a new chipset with Zen3 since the AM4 lineup will end with both X570 and B550. After Zen3, we’ll see a different socket and new mobile platforms. I’m unsure what they’d gain from a new chipset at that stage. The X570 provides everything you need except for heavy workstation tasks with many PCIe lanes, making Threadripper the superior choice. It doesn’t make sense to me why they’d want a new chipset when the current options are sufficient.
But you trust case fans, gpu fans, potentially HDD motors but you can't trust a chipset fan? Where is the logic? About a decade ago chipset fans were very common. Guess what? They didn't fail that often and when they did, they were easy to replace.
