AMD to launch Zen 4 and RDNA 3 both in Q4 2022
AMD is going to launch two of its future cpu and gpu architectures, Zen 4 and RDNA 3 respectively, roughly simultaneously.
AMD would be planning to simultaneously launch its new CPU architecture (Zen4) and its upcoming GPU architecture (RDNA3) late next year. Specifically, it is mentioned that the Ryzen 7000 and the Radeon RX 7000 would arrive during the Fourth Quarter of 2022 (Q4 2022). This late launch by AMD is due to nothing more than the current chip shortage. On the CPU side , we find Apple monopolizing almost all of the 5nm wafers produced by TSMC, the same process and the same manufacturer that the red team will go to for Zen4. The eye is on next year that the Cupertino giant will jump to 3nm and release a significant wafer allocation so that AMD can launch its next generation without problems.
The graphics card market is completely in a state of shock due to lack of stock and overpricing, generated in part by the aforementioned shortage of chips but added to the extremely high demand from the cryptocurrency industry, which uses cryptocurrencies. GPUs for mining. So it wouldn't make sense to launch a new generation of graphics cards at a time like this.

It would be interesting, but I don't think they are going to release 5000 series with 3d cache. I'd say they just slapped it on 5000 series for now for testing, development and demonstration purposes. It would make a lot more sense to keep it for brand new products.

Even though it's very far away, it is likely a wise decision. It would be pointless to release such new architectures in a market like this. By that time even if the crypto/scalper craze will not go away, at least production should be adapted to the new "standards" demand wise. Also, it wouldn't surprise me either if they're going to launch even later than that.

As a person who has never owned a single Apple device, all I can say is that "Apple monopolizing almost all of the 5nm wafers produced by TSMC" is disgusting. Understandable, of course, considering Apple's bottomless pockets and a customer base that doesn't have the word "expensive" in their vocabulary.

Good to hear as maybe by that time the hardware market would stabilize as current market prices in all kinds of hardware is out of whack at the moment. As it seems the new rx6900xtx-h stepping gpu arrived just in time to battle the rtx3080Ti and rtx3090 and has close the performance gap trading blows with rtx3090 in games. Either one will perform more or less equal in most games. As per the new cpus and socket it will give us more time , support and longevity with am4 as most of us are not ready to change socket and go for expensive ddr5 memory yet. In my opinion this is a good move from amd.
