![]() ![]() Ryzen 7000 therefore has a lot of ground to make up, especially in the eyes of those who don’t just use their gaming PC for games. Alder Lake’s clever Performance/Efficient core hybrid design made it the first Intel CPU generation in years to wipe out Ryzen’s multithreading advantage, while beating it on single-core power for good measure. Obviously it will take some independent testing to see how typical this level of performance actually is. The top-tier Ryzen 9 7950X was also claimed to beat the Core i9-12900K by up to 23% in Dota 2 and 14% in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, though it tied in Borderlands 3 and was 1% slower in GTA V. Lisa Su also showed the AMD Ryzen 7600X beating the Intel Core i9-12900K in an F1 2022 benchmark by 11% - not bad for a mid-ranger going up against the second-most powerful CPU in Intel's lineup. During the latest reveal event on August 29th, AMD CEO Dr. That said, these CPUs are designed for use in gaming PCs that would have a separate graphics card anyway, so it’s a bit of a non-issue.Īll things told, AMD are promising gen-on-gen performance gains of between 5% (in CS:GO) and 40% (in Rainbow Six Siege) over Ryzen 5000 parts. In theory, this could help games performance as more data will be “on hand” in the cache (therefore saving the time and effort of grabbing that data from a storage drive).Īll four chips also include AMD Radeon integrated graphics, so it’s not clear why AMD’s own specs list states that a dedicated graphics card is required for all of them. However, you’ll definitely need to invest in some DDR5 RAM, as Ryzen 7000 doesn’t just make it an optional alternative to DDR4 – it’s the only kind of memory that will work.Īnother Zen 4 tuneup is applied to the L2 cache, which is being doubled in size compared to the previous Zen 3 design. Speaking of, Ryzen 7000 also introduces the new AM5 socket, replacing AM4 – this does mean you’ll need a brand new motherboard, but AMD have confirmed that any coolers which currently mount to AM4 should fit AM5 as well. These are still lower than the “maximum turbo power” ratings of their respective Alder Lake equivalents, but don’t be shocked if Ryzen 7000 makes greater demands of your cooler than Ryzen 5000. The catch appears to be higher TDP values, ranging from 105W on the Ryzen 5 7600X to a toasty 170W on the Ryzen 9 7950X. ![]() Between this and the IPC upgrade, Ryzen 7000 should not just complete clock cycles faster, but get more work done per cycle as well. In something of an Intel-esque move, clock speeds are also much higher across the board, with the Ryzen 9 7950X able to boost itself all the way up to 5.7GHz – that’s even higher than the blazing peak of Intel’s 5.5GHz flagship, the Core i9-12900KS. However, the 7000 series uses the all-new Zen 4 core, which is based on a more efficient 5nm manufacturing process and can apparently manage up to 13% higher IPC (instructions per cycle – essentially, how many tasks the CPU can execute in one clock cycle). It looks like AMD are sticking with their total core/thread count formula: for example, the Ryzen 5 7600X has six cores and 12 threads, just like the Ryzen 5 5600X. You can probably expect the same this time around. I wouldn’t worry too much a lack of lower-end hardware AMD’s Ryzen 5000 series launch only involved these chips’ direct predecessors, with cheaper Ryzen 5 models coming later. ![]() You can also watch the full Ryzen 7000 reveal event in the embed above, if you’ve got half an hour free.įirst up, here are all four confirmed CPUs so far, from the crowd-pleasing Ryzen 5 7600X to the premier Ryzen 9 7950X. There’s a lot of deets to sort through, so howzabout we split them up? Here’s everything you need to know about Ryzen 7000, from the new generation’s release plans to its claimed gaming performance and motherboard requirements. These will aim to leapfrog Intel’s 12th Gen Alder Lake processors, several of which are among the best CPUs for gaming we’ve yet tried, with the aid of a new Zen 4 core design, DDR5/PCIe 5.0 support and some ambitious clock speed boosts. There’s even a release date, September 27th, which will see AMD launch an initial salvo of four mid-to-high-end chips. AMD have, at long last, fully unveiled the Ryzen 7000 series of gaming CPUs – specs, pricing, the lot. ![]()
