Lisa Su, the CEO of AMD has confirmed that the AMD Ryzen 3 processors will arrive in the first months of the second half of the year and that the AMD RX Vega are very close to reaching the market.

We are looking at data indicating that AMD Ryzen processors have been well received in the desktop market. First came the Ryzen 7, the top processors, then came the Ryzen 5, which we could call the mid-range, but there are still processors to come. The information says that the AMD Ryzen 3 will arrive during the second half of the year, specifically in the first part or what is the same, during the first two months (July / August), while Raven Ridge, the Ryzen processors with integrated graphics will arrive for laptops at the end of the year

Lisa Su, CEO of AMD, has commented on his launch planning just the same day that he has given the balance of the first quarter of the year. Su has also reported that desktop manufacturers will begin shipping the first 'clone' computers, with Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5 processors, later this quarter. The Ryzen 3 will clearly be discrete processors designed for entry-level gaming, combined with more or less simple graphics. Acer was the first desktop PC manufacturer to announce that it would mount Ryzen on the new Aspire GXs.

It will not be the only novelty from AMD, who plans to launch AMD RX Vega in the coming weeks, quite possibly, during Computex held at the end of this month or at least, present it then. These graphics are designed for gaming, workstations and data centers (we will surely see specific graphics for each of these segments). Lisa Su has also reported that Vega will have a higher price than Polaris, something that we had already imagined.

AMD Ryzen has been a significant boost for AMD, as it has taken ten years to develop a new architecture, which aims very high and has been very well received by the public, seeing how large numbers of processors have been sold, despite the Initial supply problems with the motherboards, which were not finished. AMD has managed to overshadow Intel and that users bet more on AMD solutions than Intel's and it is not surprising, since performance differences aside, the Kaby Lake are a rehash of the Skylake that has not finished perform in sales as planned, forcing Intel to advance the Basins Falls and Coffee Lake deadlines.
