Rumor zen3+ cancelled

Post by fords8 »

Found this on a site and thought we could chat about it.
https://www.pcinvasion.com/amd-launch-r ... led-zen-3/
I will see if I can find more on the topic.

EDIT: Some YouTuber RedGamingTech got the info. from inside sources. Not sure what to think of it yet.
Zen 3+ was never a guarantee, and likely got cut to focus resources on more Zen 3 production and finishing Zen 4.

3-10% increase is not that huge in CPU specs I suppose, AMD has the lead right now to skip a generation and leapfrog to Zen 4 I guess. 7nm vs. 10nm for Intel..

Between my Asus X570 Mobo and the Ryzen 7 3700X (which I'm very happy with) I have plenty of room to upgrade to a 5000 series CPU in a year or so and get a nice boost.
