AMD Ryzen Launches March 2nd

AMD Ryzen Launches March 2nd

Yes we managed a full day without a Ryzen news! But, a day has passed and some new information popped up. The AMD Ryzen launch date is firm and steady on March 2nd, likely 3PM CEST. Lock that date in your agenda.

The new information was posted earlier today at sweclockers and does confirm the signals we've been hearing for a while now. Obviously there's an AMD Capsaicin event February the 28th. We do expect to see full product announcements that day and then on the 2nd the review embargoes will be lifted, not just for Ryzen but also for the board partners that will be selling motherboards.

At the same day AMD will be launching the X370 and B350 chipsets based motherboards first. Processors wise you'll see three 8-core parts launched with availability on March the 2nd. Some webshops have however listed the 28th, so there remains to be a little confusion there. Motherboards wise a lot has surfaced online already, including details on the flagship Crosshair VI Hero and Prime X370 motherboards.

Processors then:

You will have noticed that the naming has been changed to Series 3 5 and 7 and no longer is it R3, R5 and R7. I do like that subtle simplified change. ALL models will be unlocked, AMD made that bold claim themselves in early January. The X models thus simply are better binned ones with less restrictions on likely voltage.

AMD Ryzen 7 1800X - 499 USD

AMD Ryzen R7 1800X is the flagship processor and it has has 8 cores with 16 threads and is assumed to get a Boost frequency of 4.00 GHz. The boost frequencies are not confirmed, but the indications we have seen the past few weeks would state a 4.0 GHz Turbo and 3.6 GHz base clock. No further data was revealed. Now keep in mind (if the perf is close) a similar 8-core Intel CPU would cost you about 1,200 euros, the cost for the flagship Ryzen R7 1800X processor would be 599.99 euros. These are unlocked (multiplier) processors. 

AMD Ryzen 7 1700X - 389 USD

The next AMD Ryzen in line is the R7 1700X, this one would again get 8 cores and 16 threads but this time at a Turbo frequency of 3.80 GHz, so yes this is pretty much the same processor, just with a lower base at 3.4 GHz and Turbo frequency.

AMD Ryzen 7 1700 - 319 USD

Then there is the AMD R7 Ryzen 1700, this would be a top-end CPU for gamers and yes, again you'll receive an 8 core and 16 threads processor. This time at a Turbo frequency of 3.70 GHz, the most notable being that it is the only model that indicates a TDP, which is set as 65W whereas the other two would be 95 Watt parts. The base clock frequency would be 3.0 GHz.

Other models have been spotted. I personally do not think the processors listed below aside from the three aforementioned ones will launch anytime soon. Again the above three processors (we think) will launch first. All these processors would fit Socket AM4 and thus you can use the same motherboard.

So what you're telling me is that because someone can run a motherboard without a CPU, we should not include the CPU?

...

Oh wait, it doesn't work that way

All of the CPUs bring the same thing to the table when it comes to USB, and as stated in my post, the possible configurations range from 13 USB to 18 USB, whereas Intels highest USB amount is 14, so again where is the small amount of USB?

And what do you mean by "current x99"? there is not "current" x99, there is only x99 with 3rd party controllers providing more on the system then what was initially given, just like how the AMD 990FX has PCI-Express 3.0, USB 3.1/3.0, etc. AMD 990FX does not provide those, 3rd party controllers do.

The only way i would be mistaken on this is if current intel CPUs are using x99 and that the CPUs themselves are providing USB 3.1, and if that is the case i apologize, however i don't believe that to be the case, i believe you looked at some x99 motherboards, saw USB 3.1/C, and figured that was provided by the chipset, which it's not.

Intel does not plan to provide USB 3.1 until possibly the next chipsets

https://www.extremetech.com/computing/239252-intel-may-add-wifi-usb-3-1-next-generation-chipsets



4 USB 3.0 are provided by the CPU, and is included on all the CPUs. Also, USB 3.1 (gen 2) does not have to be a type-C connection, so i'm not sure why you specifically stated "standard size".

As far as i understand it, there's no agreed upon color, you may find them red, teal or even the exact same color as USB 3.0, but they are there.








You have to ADD the CPU + Chipset, it's not JUST the chipset. Thankfully, when it comes to USB, every CPU adds the same thing.

"So what you're telling me is that because someone can run a motherboard without a CPU, we should not include the CPU?"

Not, I didn't say that. But, thanks for the effort. And based of my reasoning for getting using the X99 platform I know about chipset plus CPU. I assume the charts are a correction to the native USB ports and gen?

The image you posted is not refering to any of the words "Ports" or "Hubs"

But everyone knows that a CHIP doesn't have ports on it. But offers a certain amount of USB interfaces per version/generation (which are USB Host Controllers, which in the majority of PCB realizations are organized as Hubs).

EDIT: and by the way. With all the factors described, it doesn't matter if it is 10, 12, 14 or 16 ports... You won't run out even under circumstances that are considered heavy duty.
But someone still has to tell me how he assigns and uses 14 USB ports at the same time and then has the need to fully utilize their rate at the same time.
We're talking about owning 300 forks as a 8 people household and thinking we would need 400 .... kinda ridiculous.

I get what you are saying but to assume that those tables are talking of hubs is not a wise move. Until further clarification "I" will look at is as that is the max number of ports the chipset supports. Also after seeing the unboxing of the Crosshair VI Hero Angelo posted in another thread it dose appear to support my train of thought on the matter. AMD is talking of ports in their slides.

Now onto your note about usage of said ports. I keep my PC out of the way and swapping USB's can be a pain in the dick. I currently have 10 USB devices plugged in at one time on my Z77 which leaves me only one available to hit swap for a thumb drive. I have other USB devices that are not currently plugged in like my G27 or my phone data cable. Look I'm not using them all at one time causing a bottle neck but I don't want to use a hub. The X370 looks like it will have enough native USB's but I thought my Z77 would when I got it. Look I'm not trying to start or propetuate an argument here I'm just presenting my opinion. That all my original post was. That's why I used the word "apparent".
