Possible AMD Ryzen 7000 Launch Timeline Surfaces: Late-Aug Launch, Mid-Sep Availability
With AMD making it clear in investor-communications that its next-generation Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4" desktop processors will launch before October 2022; the countdown to their launch started. Wccftech got hold of a possible set of key dates. Apparently, August 28 is the big date on which AMD will formally announce its Ryzen 7000 Socket AM5 desktop processor lineup.
Following the August 28 announcement, the review NDA—the date on which you can read the first reviews of the retail products—is reportedly set at September 13. Market availability follows two days later, starting September 15. This is when you can actually buy the processor and compatible motherboards off the shelves. There's no word on a pre-order date; but it's always advisable to catch reviews before committing to purchase something that ships before launch date. These dates align with a mid-June leak of the launch date by AMD in a retailer promotion meeting held in China.
The specific times attached with these dates are as follows (as reported by Wccftech):
Launch of Ryzen 7000 processors will go hand in hand with that of the first Socket AM5 motherboards. There are at least three known chipset models—X670E, X670, and B650. It's unclear if all three chipset models will be available in September.

On the HEDT and Server side they have been LGA from day 1 of Zen1.
AM5 is the first time they are using LGA on a mainstream socket.
Unless they bring PGA back in the future i think it's safe to say AMD will use LGA from here on out.Also Serial :laugh:. Lol joking aside i think some will use PS/2.
Also, everything is becoming more expensive.. in best case they will have the same price as 5000.
I have no idea how the new lid affects temp, is it like 4 mm thick? I mean, is it only for heatsink compatibility, or is it to improve temps as well?

This hasn't changed since. Only gained correctness, really. This now also includes an international event I hope to see some TPU representship in. Maybe we can say hello.
Intel and Nvidia is October and AMD GPUs I don't know.
Zen4 leaks/rumours say 10% IPC increase and 10-15% higher clocks. If it's 20-25% faster than Zen3, that's really not a whole lot better than the 5800X3D.
Admittedly, they'll be faster for everything else, not just games - but a gamer probably doesn't care about that.
"It's not faaaaaaaaair, you have to wait for us to catch up on what node we're using or you can't say you're the best!!!"
Which is, of course, complete nonsense. "Apples to apples" is whatever's on the market competing at any given time. Why should the rest of the world stand still because Intel's fabs are a disaster? I couldn't give a crap how many nanometers my CPU is. Performance is all that matters, and if these CPUs perform well, I'll likely be buying one. You call me in [x] amount of years when Intel finally get their **** together and maybe I'll consider purchasing one of their products then. You know, assuming they pass an "apples to apples" comparison to whatever's on the market at the time.
It'll still be interesting though.
Whether you should buy a 5800X3D, Alder Lake, Raptor Lake, or wait for 7xxx X3D variants for a new build will depend on pricing, your budget, and timing. It's likely all options will be competitive in some way, it just depends on what your criteria will be and when you'll need a whole new platform.
That's rare, as you mentioned other tech companies like to use hype to take our money.
I don't think you will make a wrong decision with either Raptor Lake or Zen 4. Intel will find favour at the low end with 13400 and DDR4 support, but I think Zen 4 will be incredibly competitive and other than RL's with big OC's will easily compete in S/T and M/T while using a lot less power. Plus socket AM5 will be around a long time. Might not get replaced until Zen 7.
I don't understand how universities require all these grades and future plans (from an 18years old), or job interviews where they require skills or experience impossible to get, yet those hopelessly idiots in power don't go through any of this, they only need to be good liars, and mislead people, yet unlike in jobs they don't get fired or punished when caught.
