AMD today announced that its CEO Dr. Lisa Su will host a virtual keynote at next year’s Consumer Electronics Show/CES event. The keynote will take place on January 12, 2021.
Due to the ongoing global Covid-19 pandemic, most of the public events and tech/gaming expos have been cancelled, so as a precautionary measure AMD will host the event on a digital platform.
Back in July, the Consumer Technology Association already announced that the CES 2021 event will be presented as an all-digital online only experience.
We expect AMD to make two major announcements at CES 2021. The first would be on AMD’s upcoming Ryzen 5000 mobility CPUs codenamed as Cezanne and Lucienne. These mobile processors will be based on the Zen 3 and Zen 2 refresh core architectures, respectively.
Secondly, we also expect AMD to unveil its next-generation RDNA 2-based Radeon RX 6700-series of Navi 22 GPUs. CES 2021 seems like a perfect opportunity for the announcement of both these products.
AMD might also talk about the upcoming HEDT Ryzen Threadripper 5000-series of processors for content creators, which are based on the Zen 3 architecture, but we are not fully sure about this.
But the company will surely confirm support for the Ryzen 5000 Zen 3 Desktop CPUs on the 400-series motherboard chipsets through a new and official AGESA BIOS firmware, which the red team will roll out to its respective board partners.
AMD is back on the virtual stage! Join AMD CEO @LisaSu for our #CES2021 keynote on Tuesday, January 12.

Hello, my name is NICK Richardson. I’m an avid PC and tech fan since the good old days of RIVA TNT2, and 3DFX interactive “Voodoo” gaming cards. I love playing mostly First-person shooters, and I’m a die-hard fan of this FPS genre, since the good ‘old Doom and Wolfenstein days.
MUSIC has always been my passion/roots, but I started gaming “casually” when I was young on Nvidia’s GeForce3 series of cards. I’m by no means an avid or a hardcore gamer though, but I just love stuff related to the PC, Games, and technology in general. I’ve been involved with many indie Metal bands worldwide, and have helped them promote their albums in record labels. I’m a very broad-minded down to earth guy. MUSIC is my inner expression, and soul.

Lisa Su has great stage presence for someone showcasing products that have no presence at all.
??????????
AMD is just going to say the RX 6700 series of cards is going to be a Paper Launch. Good luck buying one ! end of keynote. Thanks for watching.
What is with this “paper launch” buzzword everyone keeps incorrectly using.
The cards are out there, everyone is just buying them. The markup on ebay they’re going for tells you how much demand there is.
Even the paper drawings are selling well on Ebay. lol

my bad then…I thought most of the gamers have been unable to purchase these cards though. This is what I have been reading on Forums online though.
But wasn’t the Stock awful for these RX 6800 series of cards ? Many retailers didn’t even receive stock of some of the custom cards.
Most people don’t have them, and that’s normal. A new GPU never saturates the market, especially not in the first year. They always sell out instantly. This isn’t new. The only new thing is more people want them then ever and they’re all on this ” paper launch” train because the media made it popular. In reality, both companies are pushing out higher volume than ever.
Your point makes sense. I can agree.
It is a paper launch. There are no numbers to prove that they are selling hundreds of thousands at retailers over of the world. In fact some retailers only got like 10 or 20 in stock at launch.
My guess is that like Nvidia, AMD is selling half their lots to the mining market. The shill above doesn’t have any numbers to back up his claims.
I’m in white mode and the same thing is happening to me and pretty frequently. It’s something on the DSOG side that is causing this because it doesn’t happen to me on other sites that use Disqus..
Yup, that bottom button icon is kind of annoying, lol…Can we remove it though ?
I cant read clearly the text in dark mode. Can you use other color for text in dark mode, John?
Yo b*ch! Get your sweet a*s to work and make some GPUS
