Overclockers do a lot of valuable beta testing.
As a retired overclocker, I know this kind of seeding is one of the last steps that manufacturers take before a retail release. The idea is that overclockers will poke around in the BIOS and report back any bugs or performance issues they encounter, giving the engineers time to fine tune the BIOS in time for the retail release.
Manufacturers also like to give extreme overclockers time to push for world records. A good bit of PR is always handy! Extreme OC results can be interesting for enthusiasts, even if their real-world relevance is minimal. We can also expect information such as expectations for memory overclocking.
The Zen 4 release is very close. MSI let the cat out of the bag, publicly posting on Weibo that the launch is set for September 15. The AM5 platform is AMD's first new one in over five years, since before the release of the Ryzen 1000 series in 2017. Users will need a new motherboard and DDR5 memory to be able to run a Ryzen 7000 series CPU.
