AMD confirms the Ryzen 7000 event on August 29
We have been knowing for a long time that AMD would present its new generation of processors, the Ryzen 7000, sometime between the end of summer or, at the latest, the beginning of autumn. As the months have gone by, that period has been “refined” and finally, earlier this month, there was a leak pointing to August 29. Although it was not official information, it had many elements that gave it a lot of credibility, so since then it has practically been taken for granted that it would be so.
We lacked, however, the official confirmation from AMD, something that every day began to be more urgent, because today we are less than two weeks away from that date, a fairly reasonable period to end the uncertainty and confirm, or not, the date of the event. And the good news is that they have. As we can see in this messageposted on the official Ryzen Twitter account, the event will take place on Monday, August 29 at 19:00 ETthat is, at one in the morning on Tuesday the 30th in peninsular Spanish time, midnight between the 29th and the 30th in the Canary Islands.
Join us on Aug. 29 at 7 pm ET for “together we advance_PCs,” a livestream premiere to unveil the next generation AMD PC products.
