Does HP Sunflower Motherboard support AMD StoreMI

[BlueNinja12]

I'm thinking about purchasing hp pavilion 690-0067c AMD Ryzen 7 - Radeon RX 550 desktop.  However, there's not a lot of detailed spec on the customized motherboard sunflower.  I found below but doesn't tell you whether it's using AMD B450, B350 chipset, nor does it mention whether it supports AMD StoreMI, Crossfire, M.2 NVMe, etc.  I can't find much detail regarding this AMD Promontory FCH chipset.

spec wise the only issue is the limited pci-e slots, you only have one 4x slot free once you add in a video card so no crossfire

but it does support a M.2 bassed ssd on the motherboard, however it only has two SATA ports

it is possible to have a second pci-e 16x slot installed as the motherboard has the space for one, but this would require someone with the proper equipment to desolder/then solder in the connector (not something you want to do while the system is under warranty 

bottom line, if you can live with the very limited expansion capability it's a nice system hardware wise, just ask yourself if you have owned a system before, did you ever expand it? most people don't beyond a video card, ram, or cpu upgrade which can be done on this system

and from that page

click on the For more details, see Sunflower motherboard specifications.

and it says :  AMD Promontory FCH

 AMD Promontory FCH is the new southbridge to replace the older B950 seen with the AMD 900 series chipsets. The logic varies with the A320, B350 and X370 and the CPU installed.

Thanks for your reply!  Are you able to find anything on StoreMI? B450 supports StoreMI but not B350, but I can't find anything about this AMD Promontory FCH chipset regarding StoreMI support.

[DGroves]

StoreMi should be supported as a free application since this chipset when paired with a ryzen 5 or 7 cpu should have all of the  B450/B470 chipset's abilities.

if not you can buy the same thing from amd that will  work with the HP hardware you have listed out

I don't know anything about storemi, but I know that these motherboards are b350. If storemi doesn't support b350, then it doesn't support computers with the sunflower motherboard.

Oh yeah, those motherboards only have 1 pci-e 18x slot, so no crossfire. Those computers also come with the 300w psu, so if you want to upgrade the gpu, then you most likely will need to swap out the gpu for a higher power one. The HP Envy 790 has a 400w psu that will work with this system, but if you want any higher than that then you need to go aftermarket. Aftermarket will require adapters since the motherboard uses atx 4 pin instead of standard 24 pin. Here is what will most likely work

This is probably more information than you wanted.
