Online retailers have revealed that AMD is going to bring out a special 50th anniversary edition Ryzen 7 2700X and a special 50th anniversary edition RX 590. Expected is that they will be available May 1st.

There is no information on specs at this point but one suspects that they will be higher binned 2700X's, since the name remains 2700X and not 2800X we can expect cache etc to stay the same.

 

Edit: Apparently there is an special 50th anniversary motherboard as well from Gigabyte. I don't immediately see something special about it though.

AMD's 50th Anniversary is fast approaching on May 1, and several new postings at online retailers have revealed that AMD is on the cusp of releasing a new 50th Anniversary Ryzen 7 2700X to celebrate.

Quote

Portuguese online retailer PCDIGA has listed the Sapphire AMD 50th Anniversary Edition Nitro+ Radeon RX 590 8GB graphics card for €299.90, or roughly $338.99, on the company's website.

*Gasp* yellow PC parts! Praise!

 

It's such a shame a 590 is not a huge upgrade to my 580, otherwise I would totally get it .

Sell RX 580, then buy RX 590 special edition? profit? ?

People actually ditched the i7 8700K to get an i7 8086K

 

AMD learned nothing with Intel? the same product with a different name and 'LIMITED EDITION" printed on the box and sell it for 80$ more for free profit... I'm disappointed AMD...

YELLOW PARTS!!!! WOOOOOO!!!! 

 

 

too bad i wont be getting any of them because i dont have the money :( 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

If I was into gold GPU's I'd have bought one or painted my FTW3 :P 

 

Sapphire make good looking backplates though.

Interesting stuff. Maybe they managed to bin the CPU better, also I thought they'd release Vega for it potentially. 

 

But what would be better is if they did the anniversary editions with new releases we'll see soon.

AMD has been dropping the prices on the 2000 series quite a bit lately, maybe they intend to launch the CPU at or just above the 2700X original launch price? Still the timing seems ever so bizarre considering Ryzen 3000.

Hopefully they do something extra than intel when it comes to the CPU. Intel only higher binned an excisting product and changed the label

the highest bins always went to threadripper, so i'm assuming they're reallotting a few of those over to the special edition 2700X towards the end of production?

 

still feels like it needs more though ._.

Make it yellow and combo it with a hefty cooler. Otherwise its just not interesting enough
