AMD Moves Ryzen 7000 “Zen 4” CPU Launch Date To September 27th, Same Day As Intel’s 13th Gen Raptor Lake Announcement

It looks like AMD has rescheduled the launch of its CPU & AM5 Ryzen 7000 “Zen 4” platform originally scheduled for September 15th to the end of September.

We have just confirmed from our sources that AMD will start selling their next generation CPUs at the end of September.

AMD Ryzen 7000 “Zen 4” CPUs And AM5 Platform Delayed Until September 27, The Same Day As Intel’s 13th Gen Raptor Lake Announcement

Earlier this month, we reported that AMD will hold an event at the end of August to announce details such as specifications and prices for its next-generation CPU “Ryzen 7000 “Zen 4” and all AM5 platforms.

It was also due to go on sale two weeks later, on September 15th.

However, it seems that AMD has decided to stop selling for a while and set the real launch next to Intel’s 13th generation CPU “Raptor Lake” on September 27th.

Intel is set to hold an ‘Innovation’ event on September 27th to unveil its latest desktop processor called Raptor Lake.

However, as AMD’s Ryzen 7000 CPUs are gearing up for the mass consumer market, this CPU is not expected to launch until October.

This might sound like AMD’s confidence to launch its own chips at a time when its competitors are announcing their next-generation parts.

At the same time, online retailers have started listing several AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs with introductory prices.

  • Ryzen 9 7950X (16 cores / 32 threads)
  • Ryzen 9 7900X (12 cores / 24 threads)
  • Ryzen 7 7700X (8 cores / 16 threads)
  • Ryzen 5 7600X (6 cores / 12 threads)

AMD’s first wave of 600 series motherboards will focus on the high-end X670E and X670 designs, with the B650E and B650 variants expected to launch in the coming weeks (around October/November).

This new CPU adopts the all-new Zen 4 core architecture, up to 8% IPC, 15% more ST (single thread) performance, 35% more MT (multiple read) performance compared with Zen 3 core which is expected to improve.

Additionally, AMD boosts the clock speed of its next generation CPUs with a boost clock of up to 5.7GHz, TDP 170W and PPT 230W, which is amazing.

In addition, the platform itself will also include the latest technologies such as PCIe Gen 5.0 slots, Gen 5.0 M.2 support, DDR5 memory support (EXPO) and a new series of SAS (Smart Access Storage) firmware running on a framework DirectStorage API .in .

Expected Features of AMD Ryzen ‘Zen 4’ Desktop CPUs.

  • Up to 16 Zen 4 cores and 32 threads
  • Over 15% performance improvement for single threaded applications
  • All-new Zen 4 CPU core (IPC / architecture improvements)
  • All-new TSMC 5nm process node and 6nm IOD
  • 25% better performance per watt compared to Zen 3
  • Over 35% overall performance improvement over Zen 3
  • 8-10% Instructions Per Clock (IPC) improvement over Zen 3
  • Supported on AM5 platform with LGA1718 socket
  • New motherboards X670E, X670, B650E, B650
  • Dual channel DDR5 memory support
  • Up to DDR5-5600 (JEDEC) native speed.
  • 28 PCIe lanes (cPU only)
  • TDP 105-120W (capped at 170W)

Commentary:

Ryzen 7000 series release date from 9/15 to 9/27

This is the same as Raptorlake, so I wonder if there was some kind of change of mind.

This time, judging from the leaks so far, I believe Raptorlake has a higher performance.

I think Zen 4 has the same performance as Alderlake, or slightly better.

It is very likely that AMD will lose this generational battle.

So if you ask if AMD loses all the time…

It’s possible it wasn’t.

This is because Intel 4 has the same problem as Intel 7, “the problem that the clock cannot be raised” has come to light.

Intel 7 (then Intel 10nm) took four years to produce desktop products counting from CoffeeLake in 2017.

If Intel 4 is so stuck, it will be hard for Intel to keep producing arithmetic tiles in-house.

According to CEO Gelsinger, Intel 4 production was going very well, so it’s a little surprising that this kind of problem is coming out now.

There are rumors that if Intel 4 is no good, TSMC 5nm will be used, but future plans may be hindered depending on how far this issue is taken. drag.

Above all, ArrowLake uses Intel20A, so if Intel4 cannot be launched in 2023, Intel4 will be skipped.

Then, skip Intel 4 and ask if Intel 20A can have a stone that goes up to a high clock, isn’t it a bit difficult?

Looking at AlderLake and RaptorLake, I thought all the Fab problems were solved, but it doesn’t seem that easy.
