Early attention may be dedicated to CPUs intended for gamers.
AMD has unwittingly dropped hints about what its Ryzen 7000 desktop CPUs will be like, but you don’t have to wait until the fall to find out. A list of early Ryzen 7000 processor models that AMD’s resource page once had has subsequently been removed, according to Videocardz and Gizmodo. Higher-end chips are the main focus, with two Ryzen 9 models (the 7900X and 7950X), one Ryzen 7 model (the 7700X), and a Ryzen 5 model (the 7600X). Despite the fact that AMD has historically prioritized enthusiast parts in the early phases of CPU rollouts, the absence of Ryzen 3 chips is not remarkable.
Technical information was not included in the list. However, AMD demonstrated a 16-core CPU with a 5.5GHz clock frequency at Computex. The Ryzen 9 7950X might be represented by it. The new Zen 4 architecture, which powers the whole 7000 series, features twice as much Level 2 cache per core, peak boost speeds above 5GHz, AI acceleration, and support for innovations like DDR5 memory and PCIe 5.0. To make the switch, you’ll need to have an AM5-compatible motherboard, although AMD guarantees a 15% or greater improvement in single-threaded performance.
The exact date and how much the Ryzen 7000 workstation line will cost are still unknown. If you’re expecting high-end laptop CPUs, you’ll also have to wait even longer because AMD won’t release the Dragon Range until 2023. However, the teaser gives you a hint as to what to anticipate when Zen 4 eventually hits shelves. You can schedule your PC update accordingly as AMD isn’t changing its product strategy.
