For those wondering, currently what displays when the timer runs out is:

MAKE SOME NOISE

I guess it'll be clear in a few days.

I'm on the APU train for 2H of 2017: 8c/16t Zen+ APU with Vega graphics, clocks above the 7700K on air, while providing 4k@60FPS vega graphics in a 15W power envelope for $100 (Zimbabwean).

Not that's what I call a hype train.

In the beginning, at 0:07 seconds, green sticker reading "POOR VOLTAGE", which has a #BETTERRED sticker covering "GE"...

They're hyping up Vega to be better than even Volta???

The best bit...

Somnum is latin for Sleep/sleepy.
Sleepy industries, green sticker saying Volta, unpredictable engine performance.



Another poster: "quaere et invenies libertatem sonum facere" translates from latin to "Seek and you will find the freedom to make sound"

I just hope the vega hype train will not crash and derail the zen hype train.

Well they better deliver with Vega if they starting these sort of videos again.

I think it means they've decided to get out of graphics cards and are launching a sound card.

I'm a bit of a Creative Soundblaster fanboy, so let the flamewars begin

make some noise = loud fans + coil whine

Just about had it with the coil wine on my 1080. Need a worthy replacement.

Seems AMD are very confident with this type of advertising, pretty much calling Nvidia out, that is a bold move no?

Interesting, wonder what the symbology of the drums are? just about making noise? odd video but very compelling and well made.

It isn't that unusual for AMD - Hawaii (290X) and Fiji (Fury X) had quite a lot of hype upto launch as well - much of it subsequently swept under the carpet :S

Couldn't customers claim it as false advertising if it's not as good as volta now .

To me the advertisement again shows them as the underdog, support the underdog, something they need to move away from. The little boy, not a wealthy looking boy, with his drum. And starting out the marketing by trying to damage the reputation of a competitors not yet launched product, and the "rebellion" theme. Rebel against Nvidia, buy our products.

Might be just the way I'm reading it

I hope they do come up with some decent goods soon tho and let the products do their own marketing
