Intel unveils the b360 chipset to take on the amd b350
Table of contents:
A silent battle is raging between Intel and AMD over their chipset naming after the B360 was announced. AMD was the first to fire with its X399 platform for Threadripper processors, leaving behind Intel's X299 platform. Then AMD did it again with its B350 chipset for Ryzen, again a number above and very similar to that of the Intel B150 and B250 chipsets.
Intel Announces B360 Chipset
This time Intel did not want its nomenclature to be below that of AMD's B350 and today it announces its B360 chipset, 10 numbers higher than that used by AMD, so as not to feel morally inferior, although this has absolutely nothing to do with it. do with the performance of both.
In this way, a silent battle is being waged over the chipset nomenclature, to give a feeling of superiority over the other.
The B360 chipset is not expected for this year but for the next, so in 2017 we will only receive the motherboards with the Z370 chipset, which would be the most sophisticated, leaving the B360 for the intermediate range with lower features and surely with more prices. low.
Recall that the next Coffee Lake processors will require new Z370 motherboards, the current Z270 are not compatible, in a move by Intel that has not gone down too well among users who were thinking of updating with one of these processors.
The best motherboards on the market
Coffee Lake is expected to launch later this year or early 2018.
