One of them is in its usual place on the right side of the board, under the RAM sockets, the other is located under the PCIe x16 slot.
The presence of two chipset doubles the number of supported PCIe lanes, as well as I/O interfaces.
Apparently, AMD decided to take this approach to avoid overheating of one system logic chip.
Also, on the image you can see the pin pads for two PCIe x4 and one PCIe x1 slot, 14-phase VRM and four DDR5 slots.
Moreover, it offers two M.2 slots for NVMe sticks and six SATA III ports.Picture source: AMDAlso, ASUS is reportedly preparing new ProArt series motherboards for Ryzen 7000 processors: ProArt X670E-Creator WIFI and ProArt B650-Creator.
