AMD-762 May 2001 Athlon MP 133 (FSB) AGP 4×, Hardware RNG
AMD-760MPX chipset AMD-768
Most initial boards shipped without USB headers due to a fault with the integrated USB controller. Manufacturers included PCI USB cards to cover this shortcoming. A later refresh of the chipset had the USB problem remedied.[2]

A-Link Express II
A-Link Express and A-Link Express II are essentially PCIe 1.1 x4 lanes.
See Comparison of ATI Chipsets for the comparison of chipsets sold under the ATI brand for AMD processors, before AMD's acquisition of ATI.

AM4 chipsets
There are currently 3 generations of AM4-based chipsets on the market. Models beginning with the numeral "3" are representatives of the first generation, those with "4" the second generation, etc. Individual chipset models differ in the number of PCI Express lanes, USB ports, and SATA connectors, as well as supported technologies; the table
below shows these differences.[12][13]
PCI Express, PCIe USB: 3.2 Gen 2, Storage features Processor CPU support[14]

a. PCIe lanes provided by the chipset. The CPU provides other PCIe 3.0 or 4.0 lanes.
b. BIOS update needed. Availability may depend on manufacturer.
c. Beta BIOS updates will be made available by motherboard manufacturers.
The 300 series, 400 series, and the B550 chipset are designed in collaboration with ASMedia.[25] The X570 is designed by AMD with IP licensed from ASMedia and other companies.[26] Network interface controller, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth are provided by external chips connected to the chipset through PCIe or USB. All 300/400 series chipsets are made using 55 nm lithography.[27]
The X570 chipset is a repurposed Matisse IO die made using the 14 nm Global Foundries process.[28]

Although the X399 and TRX40 motherboards' CPU sockets use the same number of pins, the sockets are incompatible with each other due to different pin layouts. Twelve TRX40 motherboards were released at launch in November 2019. The sTRX4 chipset does not support the HD Audio interface on its own, so motherboard vendors must include a USB audio device on TRX40
motherboards to integrate HD audio codecs.[31]
