AMD: Partner meeting on April 23 in preparation of Navi and Ryzen 3000 CPUs launch
On April 23, AMD will hold a meeting with the company's partners to discuss the next generation of Ryzen CPUs and the upcoming graphics architecture Navi. What exactly AMD will reveal on the presentation is unclear, but it is likely to address release dates and product details.
AMD will hold a partner meeting on April 23 to share information about the planned products in the 7nm process. Specifically, these are the upcoming Navi GPUs and the Ryzen 3000 processors with Zen 2 architecture ("Matisse"). Since this is a closed event, AMD has no specific information on the content discussed. It is also an event for North American partners. Meetings with partners from other regions will take place later. Wccftech suspects that the partners at the event will be given the planned release dates of this year's products.
AMD seems to be planning an announcement presentation of the products, or even a launch, at the Computex 2019, which will start May 28th and ends June 1st in Taipei. This is also supported by the fact that AMD opens this year's Computex with a keynote . Such an opening conference is quite a thing, it will be interesting to see what AMD will actually reveal, announce or introduce on the presentation.
"I am honored to host the opening keynote this year and to provide new details on AMD's Next Generation high performance platforms and products," said Su. In the press release, the Ryzen 3000 CPUs and Navi graphics cards are explicitly mentioned.

traditional wisdom (and products to date) has ARM chips doing poorly against x86...but don't tell that to Apple and Qualcomm.
and to be honest about an opinion, there may really be something to the 7nm product. not compared to an I-7/9, Ryzen 7/5 but compared to an I-5.
i'm not asking any enthusiast to drop performance, but consider what all day battery and "good enough" performance to run productivity software and some gaming means to the "average" consumer...and oh yeah those processors are half the cost.
but those people are not us.

yes...and right now they're a solid "buy" form most analysts despite the large increase in share price and iffy state of the overall computer industry.
the funny thing is (to an American) it's Europe that's largely to credit for the run up in AMD's valuation. between the E.U. carbon goals (affecting datacenters), and the AMD domination of the German market, the indicators are lighting up the eyes of the stock boys in New York. especially after similar numbers were being posting in most overseas markets.
to draw an analogy, AMD is in the position of Toyota after creating Lexus. the transition from a perceived "value" option (pre-Ryzen) to a "quality" (in the American sense) option (Ryzen, Epyc, Threadripper).

So, according to the schedule, the meeting was yesterday.
Any news from the meeting that reached the public already?

You misspelled Renault.
