B650 chipset allegedly on the way out — Chinese forum declares stock to dry up by Q3 2025

B650 boards from Gigabyte, MSI, ASRock and Asus.

AMD has halted production on its B650 chipset, according to Chinese tech forum Bobantang. The B650 has been the midrange chipset for the AM5 socket since its introduction in 2022 and has been one of the most popular options for PC users upgrading to AM5 processors.

In the original forum post (accessed via ITHome), the author claims that AMD has begun the shutdown stage of B650 production, and has informed its board partners of the change. While mass production has ended, supply of the chipset and motherboards using it is expected to remain high beyond this production halt.
