AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

Intel Inside is rubbish. It means exactly nothing ;)

I know that. Hundreds of millions of peeps all over the world don't know it though.
When was the last time you saw an add on tv from the "Purple Shirts" that didn't start with the Intel jingle and logo Intel Inside.......................................never. When was the last time you saw an add from the "Purple Shirts" that even made a passing reference to AMD....................never.
The vast majority of peeps going in there for a tower rig or a laptop will walk out with an Intel inside it. They have been conditioned to do that by the retailers and Intel.........................that has to change.
 
Don't worry. In front of the new nanometres, all the companies are equal and so far AMD has shown a vastly better work on the transition to the lower nodes.
intel's woes with 10nm must be a sign (and just the beginning to even worse things coming) for intel to change and just accept that the things were in the past.
 
Anyone reckon that these chips will have no OC headroom past their regular turbo speeds?

If the clocks are correct though that puts them much on par with Intel speeds.. Was hoping something else would have leaked out by now.

I don't think they will OC past their Turbo, Intel's chips are the same tho.
 
Yeah I don't think they'll go much past their boost speeds, but you might be able to push the all-core boosts a little higher? Who knows though :D

They will be £300.



Everyone confirms one and the same - Wcffctech, AdoredTV, Videocardz, Techpowerup, Russian e-Tailer, numerous national editions.

The only black sheep seems to be hardware unboxed that says all of the above are wrong :D

That little skinny bearded pleb from HWUB is going to be left with egg on his face. He is so venomous against Adored TV that he basically came out and said Jim was lying.

Well, you tell me...do you prefer to believe that is a 1.21GHz base indication, or whether 08 and 12 might just be an indication if Core count on what have been described as 8+12c ESs...?
As I pointed out, the crap about 1.21x42 is just that; the code didn't even reference a base clock in the way that the 2nd gen ones did, let alone a boost clock, and that's before we consider the dubious math of it anyway.

It's just about applying reason when coming up with an analysis. Sure, my own interpretation of that part of the code may be wrong, but it at least has more merit than dubious math based on inconsistent and flawed assumptions.

No mention of Zen 3 at CES

Is it just me or does this read like a contradiction?

Just to be 100% crystal clear since some people still seem to be misunderstanding (mishearing?) what we are saying and have been saying. AMD will not be unveiling/announcing any new 3rd-generation Ryzen products or new Navi GPUs during their CES 2019 keynote. They will likely talk about 3rd-gen Ryzen and Navi, they might show some demos, release a few teasers, talk roadmaps, possible launch dates. But the product announcements themselves - SKUs, names, specs (etc) - will come at a later date

Okay...

Really????????
 
"Possible launch dates" means AMD will clarify whether the launch will be the 9th January, or 29th January. I doubt it matters so much for hu, but for the sake of the trolling, they will argue about anything...

It looks like weasel words backtracking to me.
 
I think the issue is with a channel like HU is that if they had any information at all they'd be under NDA. The fact is they have no information at all, so they are just as in the dark as anyone in the 'tech press' besides potential leaks there is a 0% chance of AMD not talking about the Ryzen 3000 chips at CES, will they announce specific SKU's? They could maybe no one at all know other than AMD themselves. Alternatively they could just do a coming soon to a CPU socket near you, and blow everyone away with a tech demo that will leave them drooling for a couple of months until the official announcement or launch date. It probably kills hardware news places to not know what is really happening, and other leakers/speculators getting all the likes/subs.

You also have to look at the opportunity for AMD to gain feedback from the wider enthusiast segment, if they show a product and give some form of indicative clock speeds you can bet they'll be monitoring the reaction and all of the positive and negative news stories so they can ensure that at the product launch they have the right product for maximum penetration at launch and beyond.
