Question Ryzen 3000

[Neeraj_kr]

Hey just wanted to ask will the 3rd gen apus be launching on 7th July. And would it worth the extra cost(discounts on ryzen 5 2400g).
Thanks in advance.

Do you mean Zen 2 gen "Asus" boards? Do you mean the Ryzen 3000 CPUs?
This board is really opening some people's eyes - https://www.bit-tech.net/blogs/tech...shock-waves-through-the-motherboard-market/1/

No one really knows about availability though. New boards and CPUs may be in short supply so, while available for ordering, you may have to get your order in quick before they go to back-ordered.

2200g and 2400g are technically first gen Ryzen, practically 1200 and 1400 Ryzen with graphic thrown in.
2nd gen are 2600 - 2700(x).
3rd gen will be all starting with 3xxx.

Any idea when will they be launched

Any idea when will they be launched

Everything about how old Ryzen leaks turned into something completely different from what actually launched, ThreadRipper being missing from announcements and AMD announcing it is aiming for 45% gross profit on its new parts, I'm guessing Zen 2 APUs won't appear until AMD has milked early adopters for its higher margin EPYC2 rejects before worrying about lower-margin APUs and niche-market ThreadRipper. Probably won't get there before 2020. (There are 3000-series laptop APUs but those are based on Zen+.)

What about zen+ Desktop APUs (3400g and 3200g)?
And will there be any news about new cpu/Apu at e3(i dont think so but still)

The 3000 series APUs will only have marginal improvements over the 2000 series ones. Unless you're in absolutely no rush I'd just go ahead and get a 2000 series APU,

Their E3 press event is tomorrow. You could probably just wait until then to find out...

As was pointed out though, from I've heard, the 3000-series APUs will likely be 12nm processors based on Zen+ rather than 7nm processors based on Zen 2. They may clock a little higher than their predecessors, but don't expect a whole lot more out of them.

Depending on the build you are looking to do, if you are after gaming performance, it might be worth paying a bit more to get a better dedicated graphics card like Radeon RX 570, even if you have to pair it with a lower-end CPU, as that will likely get you a lot more performance in most games.
