It's the new 2020 system that Nvidia started. Pre-orders start on paper-release day.

Haven't seen any news stating otherwise. Maybe they just want to be away from the phone when it's ringing off the hook because payments are stalling and peoples confirmation emails haven't gone through.

Wait, so there's still a thread up titled "RYZEN 5000 SERIES NOW ONLINE - 5950X, 5900X, 5800X & 5600X COMING NOVEMBER 5TH AT 5PM!!!" yet they're telling people on the phone it's 2PM.
Why am I not surprised?
Look at the Sabrent Rocket or ADATA SX8200 Pro for your M.2 drive.
It was until they started to use inferior internals a month or so back.
Agreed if it was out when I had purchased my Gen4 Sabrent Rockets, I would've gone for ADATA.
If you're spending that sort of cash, get a Gen 4 m.2 NVME drive
Ditch that RAM and get 3600 speed RAM. Ryzen loves fast RAM- DDR4 3600 stuff
Yeah, 3600MHz ram is pretty much required. I do disagree about the Gen4 drives though - the cost is huge compared to Gen3, there is zero difference in normal day-to-day use, you'll only see the crazy transfer speeds in sequential copy and even then only up to the size of the SLC cache. I was really considering it for a while but ended up buying a 1TB WD Black for my system drive, it was on a deal at £106, the same money would maybe get me a crappy 500GB Gen4 drive. Simply not worth it at the current prices.
if you read other peoples posts you would see that there is a lot of confusion as to when people can attempt to buy the cpu tomorrow, I was just stating that I was told today by a sales rep on the phone it is 2pm and not 5pm as others have said.
