In the Q3 2016 earnings call AMD CEO Lisa Su reconfirms that ZEN based processors are on track to be released in Q1 2017. She makes mention of the 8-core Summit Ridge processors.
Su mentions that the copmpany should see "higher than seasonal sales" in the first quarter of 2017. She also mentions to expect that the processors will be able to compete with Intel's Core i5 and Core i7 processors.Chris Hemmelgarn of Barclays :
?With Summit Ridge launching in Q1 of 2017, I guess how would you expect the channel to ramp that? Do you see it ramping pretty fully in the first couple of quarters of the year, or are you looking for more normal PC seasonality??
President & CEO Dr. Lisa Su :
?You know, I would expect that there will be a relatively good initial demand for Summit Ridge that may be you know, not quite at the seasonal patterns. From where we see, Summit Ridge is playing in a space in the high-end desktop that we currently aren?t offering a product. So we believe we?ll be competitive certainly with Core I5 as well as Core I7 and we will be launching in those areas.?
