The first CPU recall of 2024. Good to see AMD take the extra time to get things right, its too bad this pushes it even closer to Arrow Lakes launch.

 

[OverHeat]

Intel should have been first

 

[winjer]

AMD did what Intel should have done with 13th and 14th gen.
Better to solve any issue before launch, than waiting for things to blow up with thousands of degraded Intel CPUs.

When did it release? Recall?

When did it release? Recall?

Products can be recalled before launch, this is what is happening here, the CPUs are all being shipped back to AMD (outside of the handful that were already sold).

Sir, that's a what is called a product delay. You cannot recall a product that has not been in the market yet.

Its both a delay and a recall.

AMD is already recalling — and delaying — its Ryzen 9000 CPUs

Following a couple of weeks of silence, AMD has confirmed it's delaying its Ryzen 9000 CPUs and recalling the initial shipment.

AMD is in the process of recalling the CPUs it has already shipped, which isn't an easy feat. As we've seen from leaked reviews, some of these processors are already out in the wild.

Boxed processors are being recalled, but so are processors that have already been shipped to system providers.

Ah, the pedantry fallacy by taking the pedantic interpretation of what a recall is and then present it in a way as if it's a typical product recall to make it look worse than it actually is.

Well, if you want to play that game, then Intel is doing a really bad job. Over 2 years and they have yet to reach the notification and execution stage of the product recall process. At least AMD went through the entire process in a much smaller fraction of time than Intel.

You can recall a product from your suppliers before it has been released, but it doesn't fall the umbrella of what you would consider an actual Product Recall. That is a very specific term that applies to returning defective goods sold to consumers.

It's good they picked up a defect like this before it released. Considering they don't want to send a microcode update out it is likely some sort of manufacturing defect.

Who's "playing a game"? AMD literally shipped CPUs and then recalled them. And then your response is "oh yeah well Intel is even worse!!!" Come on, get out of here with that fanboy shit

It's been pushed back to August 15th. A manufacturing defect would likely be a far longer delay.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

is it because they had issues or because with Intel out of the picture, they had more time to make them better?

9600X and 9700X are pushed back to Aug 8, so only a week delay.

Bro's, I think we're at the end of the x86 road. PC gaming moving to arm is going to get some wild reactions from certain people, but I don't think we can avoid it.

 

[lmimmfn]

At least AMD are delaying/recalling products shipped to OEMs etc. Intel on the other hand........

that's the wet dreams of many but ain't gonna happen for the next 100 years

A week or two delay is nothing. Good on them on not relying on future bandaid solutions. Wonder how the stock will react

Wonder when we get pricing. The price announcements for Zen5 and Arrow Lake could be less than 2 months apart

I think Leonidas is a secret AMD fanboy , noone can be this tryhard to make everyone wanted to jump in to defend AMD and shit on Intel.
