AMD Ryzen 7000-Series Likely to Launch On or Before the 4th of August
Courtesy of Planet 3DNow! we now have an idea when AMD might be launching the Ryzen 7000-series of CPU's, as the site posted about an upcoming AMD event called Meet the Experts on Twitter. The event registration page reads "Supporting the recent launch of AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors," which suggests that the new Ryzen 7000-series is likely to launch on or before the 4th of August. The event takes place at 11:00 in the morning, CDT (Central Daylight Time) or 16:00 UTC.
The event will showcase motherboards from AMD's partners and representatives from ASRock, ASUS, Biostar, Gigabyte and MSI will be attending the online event. There's still no mention of the B650E chipset, but apparently X670E and X670 products will be shown, but not even B650 at this point. Based on the short summary blurb, we're also likely to see a PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD being shown off. AMD will obviously have a separate launch event for the Ryzen 7000-series, but if that will take place on the same day, or on a different date, is unknown at this point.

And don't forget AMD's tradition of having an announcement of an announcement.
But I would of course welcome an unexpectedly early launch.

Which could get much worse if the war in Ukraine doesn't end & oil prices cool off.
And to take your argument to the extreme, to "sell them while they're hot" before and impending global economic meltdown, well even basic economics would tell you otherwise. I assume you mean the risk for hyper inflation, and if you were the maker of a goods that still will be useful after a "meltdown", and you knew a meltdown was coming, selling as much as possible now would be stupid, you would rather retain the stock and sell it after the inflation ;)
Any body that doesn't think both these cpu's will be uber competitive and trade blows is delusional. There will be no bad choices IMO. Just pick the price performance point that suits you.
On a more serious note, from what I've been told there will apparently not be any performance figures discussed at this specific event.
I really want to choose from the better one for my upcoming build and not be left with intel as sole competitor because of AM5 bios instability.
Let see if they invest in code and QA as much as in the (stupid, for my taste) RGB, "beauty shrouds" and all the other trash they put on MB those days just to make it look like a "gamer"\"creator"\"other s***" of a product.
I don't pay for visual- I pay for features, stability and performance.
Previous leaks hinted at such launches were supposedly to be some time in or after September.
So maybe the Aug 4th event will be the announcement of the date to announce the date that will officially be the launch date of things unofficially not crafted on paper? The question is, will everything else be announced on that date too, motherboards, memory, storage, etc. and will it be a focused launch announcement of the PCIe5/AM5...stuff? :D
I remember AMD's supposed Fury X release and just before the launch Nvidia fucked them by releasing the 980Ti just weeks before which really hurt them.
Time for payback!
I guess that make you what? Smart?
I can argue that changing CPU every few years is much more foolish, but I don't.
It's your mony, so it's your choice. All answerss are right. Just don't be bias on that.
Unfortunately barely anyone tests performance with and without patches. Sure AMD does have the same issue but they always seems to be less affected both in terms of number of vulnerabilities and the performance impact of patches for those.
AM4 longevity is just icing on the cake.
