One of the banes of desktop PC fans is the constant requirement to upgrade the motherboard. The release of new CPUs that require a new socket largely drives this trend. Moving to a new motherboard can often bring about a lot more hassle than many users would like. For those who like to stick with a single motherboard for a long as possible, AMD has got your back until 2020.
In a recent interview, AMD clarified that they would support the AM4 socket until 2020. That gives users plenty of time to do at least one worthwhile CPU upgrade. This means AM4 users will be able to seamlessly upgrade to new 2nd generation Ryzen processors with a simple BIOS update. AMD will support AM4 for at least another 2 or 3 releases if the 2020 timeframe holds out. The 2020 timeframe also allows a clean break and move to maybe AM5 and UEFI only motherboards.
