News ASRock's new 'Pro X3D' motherboard named for the Ryzen CPUs it is designed for

Shameful marketing and in Australia would draw the ire of the ACCC if they could not demonstrate it has additional capabilities for the X3D. They would probably have to change the boxes and wording to comply, or face large fines. This type of crap is all too common a way to hoodwink consumers.
 
They are really working hard to sell these chips. If AMD would spend half of the money they're spending for these promotions they might be able to produce a decent GPU.
The processes are still stuck on 4nm so 5090 is 750sq/mm and the 9070 GPUs are in the mid 300s. The high end will always buy Nvidia regardless of the value proposition so why chase it? There is serious demand so they would rather get twice as many SKUs made per wafer for the mid-tier market which has consumers that haven't already made up their mind.
 
Poor
Rustic
Onboard

PRO ONLY MEANS MILK THE CONSUMER... It's likely tell the Motherboard has military grade hardware! lol
That comment reminded me of a gamers nexus clip where steve asked the manufacturer what the letter at the end of the name was. They admitted that it meant nothing and was purely marketing spin meant to fool the consumer into thinking it was something it was not.

Netflix has a documentary on corporations. What they do to get your money.

Being liars is one of them.
