Do you have any source for that? That would be awesome news. I have been waiting for 4400g for a whilenow if we are lucky, desktop Renoir APU will be available on June 16 too.

Fingers crossed. Would love to get my HTPC build off the ground, my poor Lazer3D HT5 has been sitting in its box for far too long now.now if we are lucky, desktop Renoir APU will be available on June 16 too
Nope, no proof just a hope lol. I think it'll more likely be in July though, but no source again.
I'm waiting for 4700G and B550 ITX to rebuild my main rig.
It definitely would make sense to launch B550 alongside Renoir, and definitely not so to wait until Vermeer launches some time in late Q3 or Q4. I mean, they've already presented it, you don't do that and then hold off on selling it for half a year. 4700G is a bit too rich for my HTPC build, I'll likely go for a 4c8t if they launch one with a decent GPU, otherwise I might have to splurge and go for 6 cores. We'll see. Personally I don't quite believe the rumors that 4400G will be 6c12t simply because that would be very weirdly positioned alongside the 3600/3600X - two "tiers" down in naming, but similar performance? Though I'd be very happy to be wrong of course, at least if 4400G pricing then comes close to 3400G pricing.
Here's a direct link to a relatively high res board shot (from GB's gallery, just click the images and click download in the pop-up): link
Contrast is a bit low (thanks, black-on-black theme!) but there looks like there is one fan header next to the 8-pin EPS, one next to the lower end of the RAM, and one on the opposite end of the PCIe slot.
I've been waiting for B550 launch as I am in the middle of procuring parts for my first SFF build but I am not looking forward to tomorrow. I think these boards will be overpriced (especially in the UK - just take the dollar sign and swap it for a pound, eh) and in extremely short supply. If these B550 boards are as close in price to the X570 boards as I fear they will be then I don't really see the point in them.
Many of these B550 boards have equal or better power delivery than X570, USB-C front header, and no chipset fan. As a result, they will likely be only 20-40 dollars less than their X570 counterparts.
The only "cheap" itx board is from ASrock.

Probably this is one of the nicest B550 Chipset based motherboards we review, the Mini-ITX based B550i Aorus PRO AX, at 17x17cm Gigabyte loaded this B550 motherboard with downright amazing features in...

오더를 이미 넣은 상태이지만, 한국에는 최대한 빨리 받아도 7월중순정도에 구매가 가능할것 같습니다.
Availability might improve mid july
Hmmm...
Anyone reckon you could get an Alpenföhn Black Ridge to fit on this? Take the M.2 top plate off, it seems quite realistic. That said, I wonder if the PCIE slot would be obscured.
I have a blackridge on the Gigabyte X570i. The layout is exactly the same so yes, you can make it fit. I removed the M.2 top plate (plus fan) and installed a Noctua 120mm fan underneath. Some have gotten by with a 90mm fan and leaving the M.2 plate on; they just offset the fan and mounted it via clips instead of screwing it in.
Newegg had this board in stock today. And it was only today cause it sold out during the day Pacific Time. It was still there 12 pm PT today and gone by 8 pm. These motherboards sell really quick! You have to check in at least twice or thrice a day for availability
