Also, they shared about RX 7900 series stock.

Accoring to QSZ, early stock is extremely low. And we can see AIB model end of Q4.

The numbers of the 3D models don't seem right to me. From all the tests we saw since it launched, the 5800X3D was something like 15-20% faster than the regular model at 1080p, but here it's close to 30% faster (and yes, I know it's a bit downclocked to 4.4GHx, but still feels way too much). I wouldn't put give those numbers too much credibility.

As for the low stock of RDNA3 cards, it's disappointing. Not really surprising given AMD's past releases, but disappointing nonetheless.

Intel Core i5-13500 Raptor Lake CPU Benchmarks Leak: Over 50% Faster Than 12500

Pretty good uplift considering its a budget chip

Those are impressive results. Faster than the 7700X in multicore threads is a big blow to AMD.

PCIe Gen5 SSD Prices: 1 TB For $400, 2 TB For $800, 4 TB For $1600 at Japanese Retailer

Yeah... they may do good in servers and other business systems, but only the more fanatical will spend that much on those drives. The PCIe 4.0 drives were seen as expensive when they launched, and they were half the cost of these.
