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.

You know the saying- with wisdom come age.
Or was it the other way around...
I'm going from i5 2400 to 13700 or 7700x. That's HUGE.
Also from gtx970 to something like 4060. That's HUGE.
I'm not considering 10, 20, 30 or even 50% performance improvement something worth considering even.
2x and preferably 2.5x performance uplift is what i"m looking for.
I know not a lot of apps use AVX512 and some may say its not gonna bring a lot for AMD but it still helps in some cases though. Never heard of getting rid of a feature or instruction that actually brings performance increase.
It was mostly to save on some power & remove the headache of possible BSOD if a thread jumped from P to E core ~www.anandtech.com/show/17047/the-intel-12th-gen-core-i912900k-review-hybrid-performance-brings-hybrid-complexity/2
I wonder if they will do something about it with the although I doubt it. It will consume more for sure.
The Zen 4 architecture supports AVX-512, hopefully it will feature this support throughout the lineup and show some impressive performance. It will be especially interesting to see Intel's Clear Linux potentially outperform them with AMD hardware. :)
Funny that he still says "launch", but the text is "announcement". Something fishy with all this. Unlikely that there is an official launch, I guess.
But go right ahead, keep telling Intel's world-class CPU designers that it's possible within those constraints. I'm sure they'll be fascinated to hear from you.
I do believe Intel tried to implement a mechanism where a thread is moved once it runs into a "problematic" instruction, and they shipped this with early firmware enabling AVX-512 for a reason, but evidently this mechanism didn't work flawlessly. If you know how engineering usually works in large companies (whether it's hardware or software), you would know that technical decisions rarely are made by those with the greatest knowledge within the company. The "low-level" engineers are often aware of many bad decisions, so I don't think I have to tell them.
Like i said before: These things need to happen first if if recent news is correct we should start seeing that later this month:
