AMD Computex live stream

[Deus Voltage]

-Mostly X570 launch, no specs. (for keynote)

-Lineup announcement at E3 (frequencies, cache....) at June 10th

-July 1st for preorders of Ryzen 3000/X570

-July 7th for performance review embargo/launch

Let's just hope this keynote doesn't turn into another Ridge Racer. That would give me blue balls.

Actually going to be mad if the x570 launch meme is real. This is supposed to be a major keynote and everyone was expecting at least an announcement of sku's or something, then navi at E3.

Unfortunately that seems to be the case.... 

 

I guess they're counting on E3 to maximize mindshare, just a theory though....

I'm not taking Steve's word on this, it's basically a 1 source rumor right now

I am a bit skeptical too. He said he could be wrong, and I think he hopes he is. We'll see....

I'm not watching steve's video until after I watch AMD keynote first. Don't want to ruin the keynote with spoilers.

Nothing is being released this year and it's being pushed back until maybe 2020.. 

[Humbug]

The hype is real?

 

Leak purportedly shows even the cheapest and lowest clocked new R5 six core CPU is faster than a 2700x in both single and multithreaded loads.

And the scary thing is that it's likely nowhere near the final clocks since that chip only had a boost of 3.99ghz. And probably on like 2133mhz memory or something low too. It looks like the 8 core may end up eating the 9900k for breakfast (at least in multicore anyways)

it's the final clocks for this particular sku. I.e. a lower power 50 watt TDP part. It's just a $100 budget part. But quicker RAM will give a boost yes.

[Trixanity]

If they don't really have anything concrete on CPU or GPU then it'll be kinda embarrassing.

[TetraSky]

I'm honestly quite surprised that we haven't seen any actual leaks so close to the announcement.

[PlayStation 2]

I half want the rumors to come true and I half want the rumors to be unequivocally false. Just to rub it in people's faces.

Inb4 16c@5GHz is the only thing that's true.

Weather we'll get a 5gh 16c part is absolutely up in the air, but given GN's info on OC power draw for the 16c and what we allready know about the process node there's little question in my mind the chip can hit 5GHZ all core if AMD want to clock i that igh. Weather they will. Well we'll just have to see.

Raja & crew left, then AMD got really tight lipped.

GN mentioned they were going to talk about X570, so it's possible we could get a PBO2 and XFR3 with the new chipset. So "boost" is, say, 4.7 Ghz but the system will clock up like a GPU to a lot higher. A lot like Nvidia Base Clocks.  If something like this happens, all of the leaks would be both right & wrong at the same time, lol.

Also yeah potentially precision boost could be configured that way. if so would make life very interesting indeed.

PBO exists on X470, but it was kind of an afterthought as Zen+ didn't have enough headroom. If AMD sandbags the "stock" clocks a little to keep it within a thermal envelope for B350 boards, you end up with some happy motherboard manufacturers as they actually have some interesting stuff to sell. X570 would actually be faster than B550 boards because of the auto-OC features.

 

It ends up looking a lot like Nvidia's A and non-A GPUs, where the A parts boost higher. No clue if this is happening, but it would explain a lot of what's going on. It would also let AMD put some "+200 Mhz on X570" marking on things, or let the mobo makers advertise with that.

We are coming to a point where CPU's and GPU's are running near their peak capability out of the box. I mean, my GTX 1080Ti runs out of the box at 1950MHz and it's dead quiet. I can squeeze out extra 50MHz with manual overclock, but it's just not worth the effort. With CPU (5820K) I was lucky that it runs rock solid at 4.5GHz at stupid low voltage which is almost lower than stock, but I had to fiddle with it until I figured out I don't really need to crank up the voltage and that 4.5GHz is dead top limit. 4.6GHz is not stable no matter what settings I use. So, in a way it's gonna be nice that you just throw in CPU or GPU and it runs at its peak. Overclocking was fun, but it kinda lost its charm over the years for me...

pbo and xfr are not an afterthought, its certain it didn't help much, but if you look at zen 1 coverage, this things were meant to be released with it, my guess is that the firmware was not ready

To the community they were afterthoughts. To the developers, they obviously got them working well, but the silicon just didn't offer much. Zen1's launch was pushed up by probably 3 months and it always showed. Zen2 is somehow dragging on a lot longer.
