It looks pretty cool but it’s obviously quite specialised in terms of its functionality. I would prefer the new Crosshair VIII Extreme.

The enthusiast-class motherboard featuring AMD AM4 socket has been shown by Vince Lucido “Kingpin”. The motherboard has a 270 degree rotated socket paired with two memory slots (1 DIMM per channel), an optimal configuration for extreme overclocking.

The X570S Dark features angled power connectors and onboard buttons for power and reset. A POST code display is also present. EVGA’s premium motherboard offers two PCIe Gen 4.0 x16 slots and a single M.2 NVMe slot attached to PCIe Gen4 interface as well.

While Vince only mentioned the X570 chipset, EVGA’s Product Manager, Jacob Freeman confirmed this board is actually based on the updated X570S chipset implying that the board is passively cooled.

EVGA has not provided detailed specifications, launch date, or price yet.

That's quite a gorgeous board. However, the tellytubby sound ports on the back REALLY ruin it. They should be gold.

Not available in the UK so EVGA loose out on a sale.

The The ROG Crosshair VIII Extreme X570S is a better board anyway.
