AMD Confirms Ryzen 7000 Launch Within Q3, Radeon RX 7000 Series Within 2022

That was a writer jumping the gun because of a typo (that was later fixed) about a motherboard showcase.

They did not "miss" anything. AMD never said it would launch Zen4 in Q2. Also i would say AMD stock is doing quite well compared to Chipzilla.

Decreased complexity actually. Dual ASMedia chipsets are cheaper than one X570. And with best DDR5 sticks being 16GB most boards could easily cut half the DIMM slots while maintaining 32GB capacity that is enough for most people all while actually increasing speeds with 1DPC system.

Atleast AMD had that channel. Nvidia just said FU to gamers and sold pellets to miners directly. Now they come crawling back begging for gamers to buy their old crap for near MSRP as if it's a good deal two years after release. And they did not need LHR equivalent because RDNA2 was worse at mining than Ampere.

There were $200+ X370 models. Im quite sure we will see $90 B650 boards. X670 and X670E are only for increased IO and unlike Intel's midrange chipsets there and no arbitrary limitations plus planned obsolescence with one chipset/socket supporting only two generations of CPU's.

And the scuttlebutt continues...

Possible AMD Ryzen 7000 Launch Timeline Surfaces: Late-Aug Launch, Mid-Sep Availability

Refused to do LHR versions.

What for? RDNA 1/2 is trash for mining. RX6900XT only got like half the hashrate of RTX3090 lol
