I hope so.

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. 
It matters that you don't just give up.”

Ian Cutress here. Technically the NDA for any unreleased product is still in effect. If I were to follow the NDA by the letter, I can't mention SKUs, even ones that have been supposedly reviewed by other sites, by name. So I can't confirm what anyone has said here. :D

 

Also, to those bashing AnandTech launch day reviews: I can't speak for the GPU side (our GPU editor is 5000 miles away from me), I've hit every CPU launch day for the last two years. I always aim to test more SKUs than anyone for day one, and test more degrees of freedom on day one than practically everyone. 95% of the time, I'm there. This includes:

- all four BDW-E (www.anandtech.com/show/10337/) 
- both SKL-K (http://www.anandtech.com/show/9483/) 
- both BDW w/eDRAM, (http://www.anandtech.com/show/9320)
- all Xeon BDW-S w/eDRAM (http://www.anandtech.com/show/9532/)
- Both FX-E chips, (http://www.anandtech.com/show/8864) (http://anandtech.com/show/8427/)
- All three HSW-E, (http://anandtech.com/show/8426/)
- both Devil's Canyon, (http://anandtech.com/show/8227/)
- Pentium-AE, (http://anandtech.com/show/8232/)
- Socketed Kabini (http://anandtech.com/show/8067),
- Kaveri, Kaveri Refresh etc. (http://www.anandtech.com/show/9307)

 

What can I say, it's fun stuff to talk about. :) 


For anyone thinking this isn't Ian from AT, this is my gaming tag name. I run @borandi and borandi.co.uk

Never thought I would see you here :o. Just outta curiousity, how did you find this thread?

 

Also, big fan Anandtech here! I use you guys as my primary tech news and reviews site :).

 

After this comment and one of your recent tweets I'm not sure if it is Ryzen that you're reviewing but maybe Kaby Lake or Skylake-E or something else. But whatever. Keep up the awesome work! :) 

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Well, if you do get the package back (if you already got it back, my bad, I haven't caught up on the rest of the thread), make sure to post a (link to a) review/collection of reviews in the tech news and reviews subforum ;)

Welcome to the forums btw :)
