Just to be clear, it’s Ryzen that has 10 year anniversary. And it’s actually not until March 2027.
It is only 9 years and 2 months since the first Ryzen CPU was released.Ryzen R7 5800 X3D came out Apr 20, 2022. So that particular CPU is “only” 4 years old.
According to the article, the anniversary edition is identical to the original, so no improved production process or anything.
Still impressive that a 4 year old CPU is still relevant today. I run my games fine on a standard R7 5800X.
Oh god thank you. I saw the headline and honestly thought I had somehow lost time or something, was looking at my PC and was wondering how in the hell it was 10 years old
That was my first thought too, despite I know Ryzen was first presented November 2016, and we bought stock in AMD based on that presentation. And the first Ryzen CPU came out a couple of months after CES 2027.
It was very exciting times in the PC history, and for us personally, because the stock helped us save up for our house.
Unfortunately it was also a time where shortly after GPU prices began to increase to insane heights.
