We talk about chipset differences for computers, with a particular focus on the confusing market of AMD & Intel motherboard chipsets for modern Ryzen and Coffee Lake CPUs. Examples of overly similar names include B450 vs. B460, B350 vs. B360, X299 vs. X399 (and soon X499), Z370 vs. X370, Z490 vs. Z390, and more. We also talk about differences between Intel's chipset naming scheme, like Q, B, H, and Z prefixes, and AMD's A320, B350, and X370 chipsets.
