AMD Ryzen will hit the market on February 28 according to the reservation option appeared on Taobao

The date of the AMD Ryzen processors, which according to the leak, would be next February 28, days before GDC 2017, is leaked on a website for the sale of products over the internet in China.

The only big question, apparently, that remains to be resolved about the AMD Ryzen is the date of release on the market, because all the versions of the processors, their frequencies and the number of cores have already been filtered. Well, a Reddit user has posted that Zen-based AMD processors can now be reserved through the official account AMD Shanghai through the Taobao shopping portal.

The announcement does not specify which AMD Ryzen processor will hit the market for 1999 yuan, which is about $ 295 in exchange. It is expected that it is one of the entry-level models from AMD, although, according to the leak, none of the processors that AMD will launch are 4.2GHz, as indicated in the image, so we have no idea what can this processor be. What is clear is the manufacturing architecture, which is 14nm, which does match what the AMD Summit Ridge would be.

What is attracting everyone's attention is that none of the leaked models house in terms of frequencies, since the most powerful of all would be the ZD3601BAM88F4_40 / 36_Y, a version of an eight-core assembler and sixteen threads of processing that has a Boost frequency of 4GHz, while the most powerful commercial versions would be the sR7 that would work on 3.6GHz. It could be that AMD released something in the mid-range with a Boost working frequency of 4.2GHz, because $ 295 for the top of the range is impossible.

Leaving aside these data that can more or less square with the leaks, what seems certain is that they will be launched on the market on February 28. The deadline was the AMD conference at GDC 2017, which takes place in early March. Is it really the release date of these processors?

    If it becomes that in the 8-core and 16-wire series, I myself will go to China and the United States to give the presenter a hug and kiss

      The truth is, for the price they put on the RX I would not be surprised if it is true that they are going to be quite cheap.

    If for the price of an i5 7600k I get something more powerful on the AMD side, I'll consider that my months of waiting were worth it. 😀
