If they had used Intel Foundry Services, they would have been just fine.
Isn't quality control when you make confusing statements about your faulty product(s)?If they had used Intel Foundry Services, they would have been just fine.
7200 is super premium mem to the Galah dude
Yeah, but they're also not doing that. They're simply recalling and replacing the chips. However, the very fact that they're able to do that pretty much narrows the issue down to some sort of manufacturing defect that's been identified at the last minute. It's also clearly already been corrected if they're in a position to replace the affected chips so quickly. Two weeks is nothing. Had there been a problem with the silicon found at the last minute, after chips had already been shipped, fixing it would have taken a hell of a lot longer. Most likely it's something to do with the package itself. Maybe the IHS or the soldering process or something. Speculation of course, but it has to be something in that ballpark severity-wise or they wouldn't be getting away with such a short delay. You don't re-spin and ship new silicon in a couple of weeks.

date given is the 15th of August now
Why would AMD want to cast doubt over it own products just before a big launch and take away the spotlight away from Intels issues just to gain a couple of percent in benchmarks, also Intel haven’t confirmed a date that they are pushing the fix so it may not be pushed till after AMD launches anyway.

Interesting. This might mean that I could wait for X870 now. Was planning X670E-I with usb4, but if we are now talking mid August, by the time I have read every review I can find, watched all the vids and planned my component list it would be Sept in any case.
Then if at the end of Sept there isn't an X870 ITX option I like, I could revert back to my original plan which would hopefully be on sale as X870 would now be out
You can get that now (at least in mini ITX) as I was considering the ROG Strix X670E-I as I think the only difference between X670 and X870 is the faster memory speeds as that board has USB4. For mini ITX, that board is the only option if you want USB4 and it isn't cheap.
