"And yes, being at an AMD event, that Nvidia insertion does feel a tiny little weird."
Not weird at all. I think most of potential Ryzen buyers have NVidia graphics cards, because NVidia's market share is dominating the high-end segment. These enthusiasts would be exactly the people being interested in Ryzen, including me 🙂. It makes perfect sense that AMD wants to reassure that NVidia graphics work well (or even benefits from) with Ryzen and AM4.

Will the 16~32 core server parts be over-clockable?

nope

I agree with you, but for slightly different reasons...;) As the maker of x86-compatible CPUs and core logic, it wouldn't accomplish anything for AMD in the CPU marketplace to be any less compatible with nVidia GPUs than Intel products are compatible with nVidia GPUs (and AMD GPUs, too, of course.)
At the moment the GPU high end is certainly dominated by nVidia, but that is only because AMD hasn't had a high-end GPU product release in awhile...;) In the mid-range, GPU markets (480 territory) that sell in much higher numbers than the high end, AMD is doing well on the GPU front. But even if nVidia high-end GPUs weren't doing all that well it behooves nVidia to see that nVidia products run as well on AMD CPUs and core-logic as they do on Intel CPUs and core-logic, etc.--just as it behooves AMD to ensure that its GPUs run well on Intel CPUs and core-logic.

AMD vs Nvidia vs Intel, it doesn't matter. They all agree on one thing that will truly benefit computers in the long run..
MOAR RGB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Makes sense though, AMD wants to broaden their horizon as much as they can.

I wonder if some of the systems had a Vega inside as well.

Ordered me the R7 1700 ASUS Prime Pro and 16GB 3200MHz DDR4 Ram. Now i need to find a buyer for my i7 4790k MSI Z97 Gaming 3 and 16GB 2100MHz DDR3 to help ease the burden lol.

I agree with you, but for slightly different reasons. Nvidia would cooperate with AMD on the Ryzen compatible mobos as much as possible because obviously it means more market for Nvidia. Ryzen will increase AMD's share of the CPU cake, how much, remains to be seen, but it will. Nvidia naturally doesn't want to see a situation where the shift means less Nvidia cards sold, so it would do anything to make Ryzen owners buy Nvidia cards.

so basically they admit they dont have product as their rival ?
while its nothing wrong, but it is bad marketing way
the should rather, promote that with radeon you can get extra boost or something that make interesting to match with amd products
even it mostly marketing bs, its still much better to sell your product, rather than giving "free" promotion for rival (nvidia)

Yes, Nvidia has nothing to rival AMD or Intel's x86/64 architecture in CPUs. Nobody expects them to, so I'm not sure there's anything to admit in the first place.
This is a CPU marketing event. That CPU will work with both AMD and Nvidia video cards.

How is it bad marketing? They are selling Ryzen CPU's to Nvidia owners. I just bought a 1800x and I have a GTX1080.
Are you saying they shouldn't market their CPU's to me? Because that sounds like bad marketing.

And now the wait for HH review of all the new fancy toys, RYZEN and MOBOs (80+) of them, and of course the OC part, when Hilbert reviles how far RYZEN can actually go multiplier, voltage and watt 🤓
all indicates AMD is actually back :bash: boxing mach anyone
busy week for Hilbert, very long week of waiting for us 🤓

Steam survey January 2017: DIRECTX 12 SYSTEMS (WIN10 WITH DX 12 GPU)
Marketshare:
RX 470: 0,16%
RX 480: 0,49%
--> 0,65%
GTX 1060: 1,84%
Well, nvidia sold just 3x more in the well-going mid-range. Oh, and the gtx 1060 came out 1-2 months later!
Oh wait, they have the gtx 1070 and 1080 too, but thats high-end:
GTX 1070: 1,75%
GTX 1080: 1,35%
(R9 Fury series: 0,07%)

Last time I bought and AMD CPU, it had terrible minimum-fps with nearly all the games (every minute lagg cause of fps drop), and that time nearly all the game-tests went only for average fps. Now we have fcat, minimum fps values, so hopefully no unknown issue gonna happen later.

So... If you were AMD, a company who makes CPU and GPU, would you demonstrate your latest CPU alongside GPUs from your direct competitor? Doubt it.
eclap
They could sell the cpu (if it's good) to Nvidia users without having to use Nvidia hardware (you know, the company that spanks AMD across the board).
Using Nvidia hardware is stupid, there's not much else to it.

For the right price I might be interested 🙂

I bet anyone here 5 bucks that if AMD is going to have those LED thingys on the cooler, Intel's gonna do it too.
I'm calling it right here and now.

"And yes, being at an AMD event, that Nvidia insertion does feel a tiny little weird."
not at all:
-not so long ago AMD cpu worked way better on NVidia
-AMD's chipset is compatible with SLI... then they demonstrate how cool it is on AMD 🙂 (btw on 990 it worked better than on some Intel chipset)
-there is no competitor on high end segment and in some country AMD's GPU are more expensive than the NVidia's equivalent (and NO a RX480 is not the equivalent of the GTX1080 but for half the price 🙂 ) so having NVidia is a sale argument to sell AMD CPU/mobo combo.
and now let's see the review in 8 day 🙂

LED is cool it make your CPU last longer, protect your room against earthquake, and make you win in all game... 😛c1:
it's like neon in the '00 🙂
