<cheers> less that two weeks and the "leaks" about this will end and some solid information will be released.
Just hope I can afford to buy a system built around one 🤔

Problems is two weeks after that the "leaks" for the 8000 series will start 🤓

Will this "show and tell" event mean that the new generation MB's will arrive and or launch around this time to compliment the 7000? Would be nice to see the Rycen 7000 tested on a newest model MB.

New boards will have to be ready to ship; otherwise, you'd have nothing to plug your shiny new Zen4 chip into. I'd think that the new boards are arriving now at the retailers in preparation for shipping in Sept.

I'm looking forward to tests, of course. I'm also looking forward to seeing more boards for smaller builds, like mini-ITX boards.

"Purported pricing" doesn't mean one inflated price from a Canadian retailer that is currently charging a 50% premium for its Zen 3 CPUs over Newegg or CanadaComputers and 40% over Amazon Canada.

Agreed. Hopefully this "purported pricing" is wrong and we see a good old-fashioned price war between AMD and Intel.

You can get the RAM now (I did). CPU and motherboard will have to wait till official launch.
I'll probably wait a bit longer as I want to get a 2-slot memory micro ATX OCing board. I think all the initial boards will be 4-slot memory boards.
