AMD’s next-generation processors may be just around the corner.
A new “Meet the Experts” event scheduled for Thursday, August 4, 2022, has provided some pretty strong indication that the company’s Ryzen 7000 Series CPUs will surface next month. The beginning of the event summary reads “supporting the recent launch of AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors,” something that would suggest an early August rollout for these chips.
The summary portion in full:
Supporting the recent launch of AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors, the new AMD AM5 Chipset offers users high power performance across gaming, creating, and intensive computing tasks. Supporting DDR5 memory and PCIe 5.0 for the world’s fastest NVMe storage, the AM5 platform introduces more performance, power, and possibilities than ever before.
AMD goes on to confirm the various experts that will be present at the webinar, including a number of X670E motherboards that will be shown, such as the ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Extreme and MSI MEG X670E ACE. The flagship X670E (E for “Extreme”) chipset is designed for “extreme overclocking” and mandates PCIe 5.0 support for both storage and graphics.
In this webinar, join experts Mike Yang, Michiel Berkhout, Anny Hsu, Juan J. Guerrero, and Sofos Oikonomou. Learn about upcoming motherboards from partners such as ASRock, ASUS, BIOSTAR, GIGABYTE, and MSI on how their AM5 motherboards introduce cutting-edge features to the market and unlock the full power of AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors.
Viewers can expect the following topics to be covered:
- AM5 Ecosystem Solutions
- Socket AM5 X670 Extreme and X670
- Flagship AM5 Motherboards
- Socket AM5 motherboard lineup, specifications, and features from ASUS, GIGABYTE, ASRock, MSI, and BIOSTAR
- The Next Frontier of Ryzen Motherboards
