AMD Ryzen 9000 Series Launch Delayed Due to Typo on CPUs

Incorrect labeling on heatspreaders forces AMD to postpone release of Zen 5 processors by up to two weeks.

  • AMD's Ryzen 7 9700X and Ryzen 5 9600X were mislabeled as Ryzen 9 models.
  • The typo necessitated a recall of initial shipments for re-screening and correction.
  • The Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5 models will now launch on August 8, with Ryzen 9 models following on August 15.
  • AMD assured that the issue does not impact the performance or reliability of the processors.
  • Intel faces its own challenges with high failure rates in its 13th and 14th-gen CPUs.
