Pins that handle high-speed data for GPUs and NVMe SSDs.

A large block of pins dedicated to communicating with RAM. These are sensitive to physical damage; a single bent pin here can "kill" a memory channel. AM4_Pinout.ods

The AM4 socket, introduced in 2016, moved AMD to a Pin Grid Array (PGA) where the pins are on the processor rather than the motherboard. Because AMD does not publicly release exhaustive, pin-by-pin documentation to the general public, the community—primarily through platforms like Reddit and Twitter —reverse-engineered the layout. The .ods (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) format is used to make this data accessible via free software like LibreOffice or Google Sheets.
