AMD Ryzen 7000 launch reportedly delayed due to BIOS issues

Earlier this week, AMD announced that it will be holding its Ryzen 7000 launch event this month, matching what we've previously heard through rumours. It was also expected that Ryzen 7000 CPUs would be available by mid-September, but this has apparently shifted to late September. According to one reviewer, this change took place so AMD could fix up last-minute BIOS issues. 

The reviewer took to Chiphell (via VideoCardz) to claim that they had to re-sign an NDA due to the delay, and after asking about the push back, they were apparently told that the BIOS needs more work.

We can't verify this, and the source does not claim to know anything specific about the issues AMD apparently encountered. Still, everything should be in working order and ready to go once AM5 motherboards and Ryzen 7000 CPUs become available.

AMD will officially unveil the first Ryzen 7000 processors on the 29th of August. At that time, the company should also confirm when the processors will be available at retail, as well as suggested pricing.

KitGuru says: Between Ryzen 7000, Intel Raptor Lake and upcoming GPUs, PC builders are going to have a ton of options to choose from over the next few months.
