AMD Ryzen Zen 2 3800X and AMD X570 Motherboard

AMD Lisa Su, announced the AMD Ryzen Zen 2 architecture lineup at Consumer Electronics Show (CES) back in January 2019. She will be giving the Computex Keynote on May 27, 2019 in Taiwan. It will be at 10am Taiwan time. If my calculations are correct that will be 7pm Pacific / 8pm Mountian / 9pm Central and 10pm Eastern Daylight Time May 26, 2019.

The speculation is that the AMD Ryzen Zen 2 architecture processors will be unveiled at the Computex Keynote. Remember it will be 7 nanometer (nm) processor size, a first for the industry. It will also support Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) 4. This is anticipated to power graphics cards using this slot with enough power to not require external power connectors 

I am planning on building an AMD Ryzen and Asus X570 custom built computer with Nvidia GeForce hopefully a PCIe 4.0 card. Hopefully either Ryzen 7 or 9. I really would want Ryzen 9 3850X for the ultimate performance for years to come. When I last built my AMD Phenom II X4 940 3Ghz Quad Core with an ASUS M4N82 Deluxe nForce 980 motherboard it was top of the line for its day back in 2009. I want to repeat that performance!

I will definitely be watching the livestream of Computex. I will be updating Racer Technology with any updates to the Computex 2019 date and time for United States time zones. Also when we find out the launch date for AMD Ryzen Zen 2 processors. You will be the first to know as soon as I find the information either through a tweet on Twitter or another blog website. I scan the search results daily. I apologize that it has been too long since I last wrote an article.
