Why the new AMD Ryzen 7000 processors for the AM5 socket are currently not a good deal
Posted by Stefan on 2022-10-11
At the end of September 2022, the time had come: AMD presented its latest desktop processors called AMD Ryzen 7000. Initially, 4 processors with 6 to 16 CPU cores were released.
The new socket AM5 (LGA 1718) is used for the first time, which is intended to replace the very durable socket AM4 introduced in 2017 as AMDs mainstream platform. This includes (depending on the chipset) PCIe 5.0 support as well as the exclusive use of DDR5 memory on all AM5 mainboards.
Officially, DDR5-5200 is the maximum, but with AMDs EXPO Technology which is similar to Intel's XMP 3.0, AMD now also has a solution for easy overclocking of the main memory. AMD itself names DDR5-6000 as the sweet spot for the new AMD Ryzen 7000 processors.

The evolution of AMD Ryzen processors
Posted by Stefan on 2022-09-06
The AMD Ryzen processors are designed for the mid to high-end range and are grouped into the Ryzen 3, Ryzen 5, Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 9 classes. AMD follows the market leader Intel, which groups its Core i series (Intel Core i3, Core i5, Core i7 and Core i9) identically.
The AMD Ryzen processors were first introduced by AMD in Q1 2017. They are the successor to the not particularly successful AMD Bulldozer processors. The latter were manufactured using an outdated manufacturing process and could not keep up with the competing products from Intel. AMD lost a large portion of its desktop processor market share during this period.

AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and AMD Ryzen 7 7800X are coming in September
Posted by Stefan on 2022-06-20
After we published a performance assessment of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X last week, the well-known AMD leaker Greymon55 has now posted more informations via Twitter.
He predicts the first four models of the new Zen 4 desktop generation, which AMD would like to present at the end of 2022. There is also an alleged release date of September 15, 2022.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X - Cinebench R23 Benchmark projection
Posted by Stefan on 2022-06-10
We give you a preview of AMD's new Zen 4 desktop processors and calculate the performance of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X top model for the new AM5 socket. The performance data and other technical details come directly from the press kit that AMD released as part of its Financial Analyst Day on June 9, 2022.
Up to 15 percent more single-core performance and 35 percent more multi-core performance of the 16-core model are realistic !

Comparison of the two processors
With the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X and the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, two very similar processors are compared here. The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X introduced in the fourth quarter comes from the fourth and the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X introduced in the third quarter of 2019 from the third generation of the Ryzen 7 series. Both are manufactured using the 7 nanometer process, but the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X is already based on the Zen 3 architecture, whereas the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X is still based on the Zen 2 architecture.Both processors are models that each have 8 physical cores. However, the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X has a higher clock frequency than the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X both in single-core mode and in multi-core mode. The maximum clock frequency of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X is 4.70 gigahertz (single-core) or 4.40 gigahertz (multi-core), whereas the maximum clock frequency of the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X is 4.40 gigahertz (single-core). Core) or 4.00 gigahertz (multi-core) is slightly lower.
Both processors support hyperthreading technology and can also be overclocked without any problems, as long as you use the appropriate hardware for overclocking.
Both processors also do without an internal graphics unit, which means that the CPUs can only be operated with a dedicated graphics card.
A crucial difference between the two processors is that the TDP of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X with 105 watts is significantly higher than that of the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, which is specified with a TDP of 65 watts.
However, both processors agree on the RAM, the L3 cache and the PCI Express lines in version 4.0. Both have 2 memory channels for DDR4-3200 RAM, the L3 cache is 32 MB and 20 PCIe lines are available.
