WCCF Rumour: X570, Ryzen 3000 and Navi will all launch on July 7th (7/7/19)

[Master Disaster]

Apparently to market the use of 7nm AMD are choosing 7/7 to launch Zen 2 and Navi.

Quote

The source reports that just like Radeon VII that got the 7th February release date which clearly highlighted the 7nm process technology featured on the card, the 7th July (7/7/2019) release to emphasize the use of 7nm across all AMD mainstream families (GPU & CPU). It’s a really great marketing approach for AMD. Also what’s interesting to note here the mentioned date is for the release which means AMD would probably make an announcement earlier.

The rest of the article is just rehashing old information and the usual "we'll find out for sure at CES", honestly not worth going over.

My thoughts - I don't believe a word of it TBH, total nonsense made up to try and sound clever IMO. Plus didn't we recently hear Navi is delayed till Autumn/Fall?

If it follows usual AMD launches, they don't actually need many if any available products at launch...so...who knows. *shrug*

[Glenwing]

It's just a standard formula.

 

Every time AMD schedules a press event, publish an article "predicting" that whatever the next expected hardware is, it will launch at that event. If you are correct, everyone will trust in your "secret inside sources" and read your articles next time (and hype them to other people, getting more ad revenue), and if you are wrong, then you just predict it again whenever the next AMD event is scheduled, and you will eventually be right, and everyone will forget the previous times your prediction failed  That's also part of why WCCF always begins every article with "just like we successfully predicted [X past event]", to try to build their own cred hoping no one will remember all the times their guesses were wrong.

RUMOR

Though I personally hope this is true, If it isnt, AMD would get bashed more because some people dont know the word "leak" and "rumor" isnt always true

[BobVonBob]

Why didn't they launch it in 2017 if they were so concerned with the number 7?

 

Explain that WCCF Tech.

Or 2027...

 

Or 2727...

 

Or 2777...

 

Or 7777...

 

Oh shit....

I mean, some of this is kind of pedantic, but still... Epic levels of no proofreading + no fact checking

They've reached just the right credibility balance where nobody cares if they're wrong but everyone listens. The gossip rag of the tech industry.

Still waiting for the GTX 1660 Ti that came out a few months ago.

The original report is actually from RedGamingTech:

 

http://www.redgamingtech.com/exclusive-ryzen-3000-navi-release-date-specs-intel-comet-lake/

 

Comet Lake, the next Intel Desktop parts, is due in Q1 2020 with 10 cores, as well, from the information they have.

[BananaInSandals]

This is like those "movie analysis" trying to predict a movie's plot before its release. When you throw enough shit to the wall, something's bound to be sticking. I won't believe anything til AMD actually makes the announcement.

I've read the 7.7.2019 a couple of days/weeks ago on German Site Planet3dnow:

https://www.planet3dnow.de/cms/44582-amd-mit-ryzen-3000-x570-und-navi-am-7-juli/

 

 

Though some more infos about X570 Chipset would have been awesome.

Right now we know nothing about it.

 

I would expect however that it has some sort of PCIe 4.0 support. Besides that, nothing...

[TetraSky]

If only this could be true.... I can wait for Navi, but come on AMD, I need that new CPU.

[ThreePinkApples]

Well, Ryzen 3000 + X570 is supposed to release around summer time, so June/July is an easy guess to make, and a good way to make your guess seem credible is to draw the parallel with Radeon 7 on 7. February. At least they tried

[Quadriplegic]

Well, they did credit Red Gaming Tech, so at least it wasn't WCCFTech that came up with this

[RejZoR]

Only thing I'm really interested in is if Ryzen 7 3700X will really be hitting 5GHz. That's all.

[mr moose]

Forget rumors, I need the Ryzen to be released now.  I don't want to wait another 6/7/8  months.

Well, you might eventually be interested in X570 as well, if what I'm thinking about might happen...

Sadly they probably don't integrate SAS...

[Trixanity]

I've yet to see AMD able to execute multiple brand new products at once so it seems dubious. I fully expect it to be a staggered release again.

if its true that they were planing to launch navi sooner, then most of the work might be done or near completion, so it should not be as complicated as if all products are still being prepared, 

[Doobeedoo]

I mean fitting or not, whatever. We know approximate timeframe anyway. Computex will come too. 

I just wonder how Navi is built be it sCaLaBlE and all, targeting mid-range first and it's architecture improvement over Vega so what is it's full chip supposed to be. Like later on release, last of GCN if they manage to pass it's limit with more CUs or something. 

[TVwazhere]

This is probably just a ME problem, but every time I keep seeing the new Ryzen chipset number I cant help but think we're talking about a case...

That would be awesome considering how much of a turd Turing is.
