, who believes that AMD has made Zen 4 based The release of the next-generation CPU has been delayed until late September.
Argument is the new date is September 27th, as mentioned, this is Intel having its innovation event, rumor has it that we’re getting ready to see the next generation for the first time Raptor Lake processors. Note that for Intel, this is just a disclosure, before sales start in October (in theory); for AMD, this should be when the actual product goes on sale.
AMD’s disclosure will come earlier on August 29th, and if the rumor is true, it will be released by the end of the month to be precise. The idea is that we’ll be accepting four new CPUs: the Ryzen 9 7950X, 7900X and 7700X and 7600X.
Analysis: Running Interference Raptor – or something else ?
if true – we’d be Very Be careful assuming it is – that’s a pretty confident move for AMD. . In fact, it was an almost immediate challenge by changing the date to coincide with the launch of Raptor Lake. If you will, drop the challenge, assuming that’s AMD’s faith in Zen 4.
After all, if AMD has any doubts here, it’s definitely the company looking to launch Ryzen 7000 before Raptor Lake, with a chance of getting sales in a few weeks The amount (if it matches the previously rumored September 15th), before anyone knows the relative power of the Ryzen 7000 Intel 13th Gen series.
unless there is some other reason for this apparent resistance. We’ve also heard that AMD wants to mass-produce the original Zen 4 CPUs, so maybe production isn’t as fast as Team Red envisioned, and it’s going to take a bit more time to make sure stock levels are kept high from the start.
Anyway, this should be music to consumers’ ears, if you think about it: either AMD is very confident in its Ryzen 7000 chips, Either it wants to make sure there’s an ample supply (which would certainly be refreshing at launch, especially for the high-end Ryzen 9 models). Maybe both of the above are true, but we shouldn’t be carried away by the rumors, because we’ve all been burned on this one.
There is another way however, looking at the so-called date change that AMD doesn’t want to give Intel a chance to evaluate the Ryzen 7000 CPUs so that in the latter’s Comparison with Raptor Lake at launch. Ultimately, we can’t be sure of the reasoning here — if any — but we’ve been personally for a while now that the race between Zen 4 and Raptor Lake is continuing based on various recent leaks and it’s a pretty close call .
