While we caught a lot of new products at this year's Computex from Sapphire , their offerings, especially in the motherboard category, have been mainly region-limited to China. However, it appears that Sapphire is preparing for the global launch of its motherboard series. In a post on X, Sapphire noted that the company has "something exciting coming up soon," which is likely a global expansion of its NITRO+ motherboard series. At the same time, a well-known leaker, @momomo_us, showed a listing of Sapphire motherboards in Australia, which further confirms that the company plans to expand its global presence.
During our visit to the Computex booth, we saw the Sapphire X870EA Wi-Fi PhantomLink Edition motherboard, which is Sapphire's first high-end motherboard in years. The Socket AM5 motherboard is based on the flagship AMD X870E chipset and offers premium connectivity and I/O features. Other motherboards, such as the B850 NITRO+ boards, are also more budget-friendly and could see great adoption among gamers. We are awaiting official confirmation, but for now, Sapphire is just teasing the expansion.
