Am4 compatibility

[ringo]

Regarding this news will Zen 2 and Zen 3 support current AM4 motherboards?  I was thinking of buying Asrock x370 K4 and some R5 cpu, and later upgraded it to Zen 3...

" Furthermore, the new Pinnacle Ridge family will remain compatible with the AM4 socket as AMD has already stated that they plan to stick with AM4 for a long time " 

 

Its in the article.

From the article,

"Furthermore, the new Pinnacle Ridge family will remain compatible with the AM4 socket as AMD has already stated that they plan to stick with AM4 for a long time. It’s possible that even Zen 3 processors will be compatible with a updated revision of the socket while allowing backwards compatibility with older (by then) Zen 2 and Zen based desktops chips."

 

It's an unreleased product, your information is as good as ours.

From the article I think that Zen 2 will be compatible but with Zen 3 they will release Am4+ socket, so Zen 3 won't go into current boards, probbably  on revision boards.
