AMD Ryzen 7000 “Zen 4” CPUs Listed Online

Ryzen 7000 Desktop CPUs based on AMD’s Zen 4 core architecture have started appearing at online retailers. All four CPUs are listed at Canadian retailer PC-Canada with their initial price list.

AMD Ryzen 7000 ‘Zen 4’ CPUs See Initial Price List – Flagship Ryzen 9 7950X Sold for $892

Observed by prices momomo_US and AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, Ryzen 9 7900X, Ryzen 7 7700X, and Ryzen 5 7600X in both Tray and Non-Cooling SKUs. Here are the chips with their initial prices by retailer:

These prices are definitely on the high side because we’re looking at early listings, but that’s to be expected previous the rumor mill noted that while the 8- and 6-core models could cost less than their predecessors, the higher-core variants in the Ryzen 9 series could be more expensive.

AMD Ryzen 7000 “Zen 4” Desktop CPU Ranking by PC-Canada:

If we compare prices with existing processors from the same vendor, we can note that the Ryzen 9 7950X is CAD 158 higher than the Ryzen 9 5950X. The Ryzen 9 7900X is CAD 13 less than the Ryzen 9 5900X, the Ryzen 7 7700X is CAD 216 less than the Ryzen 7 5700X, and the Ryzen 5 7600X is CAD 15 less than the R560X. However, we’ll definitely have to wait for the final prices, which only AMD knows at this point, but we can expect them to be finalized for a full reveal on August 29th.

So, before we get into the main specs, we should mention that the AMD Zen 4 architecture brings with it an 8-10% IPC increase, but most of the performance benefit comes from the higher clock speeds and added higher TDP. each chip compared to the previous generation. AMD highlighted a >15% Single Threaded, >35% Multi Threaded and >25% Perf/Watt increase when comparing Zen 4 vs Zen 3 cores.

CPUs with double L2 cache (1 MB vs. 512 KB), shared L3 cache like previous generation, DDR5 memory support with EXPO (AMD’s Extended Profiles for Memory Overclocking), PCIe Gen 5.0 with optimized cache rebuild will come. graphics card and M.2 SSD support. So, with all that said, let’s move on to the specifications.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 16 Core “Zen 4” Desktop CPU

Starting with the flagship, they all have the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, which retains a healthy 16 cores and 32 thread count from the previous two generations. The CPU will have an impressive base frequency of 4.5 GHz and a boost speed of up to 5.7 GHz, making it 200 MHz faster than the Intel Alder Lake Core i9-12900KS with a single-core boost frequency of 5.5 GHz. It looks like AMD is squeezing every ounce of Hertz out of this 170W TDP (230W PPT) for its Ryzen 9 chips. As for the cache memory, the CPU comes with 80 MB including 64 MB from L3 (32 MB per CCD) and 16 MB from L2 (1 MB per core).

We don’t know the price or performance of the Ryzen 9 7950X yet, but based on clocks alone, it should be a worthy successor to the Ryzen 9 5950X and should easily topple Intel’s current Core i9-12900K CPU.

AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12-core “Zen 4” Desktop CPU

Next up is another AMD Ryzen 9 chip, the 7900X, which, as the name suggests, will feature 12 cores and 24 threads. The CPU comes with a higher base clock of 4.7 GHz and a boost clock that can be adjusted to 5.6 GHz on a single core. The CPU maintains a TDP of 170W and gets 76 MB cache (64 MB L3 + 12 MB L2). The CPU will be placed on the same playing field as the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, but with performance that will shake the ground below the Core i7-12700K.

AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-core “Zen 4” Desktop CPU

Moving on to the Ryzen 7 family, here’s the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X, with 8 cores and 16 threads. AMD defines this as the sweet spot for gamers, and therefore the CPU will be equipped with a 4.5 GHz base clock and a 5.4 GHz boost clock, but with a lower 105W TDP (142W PPT). The CPU will get a 40MB cache pool consisting of 32MB L3 from the single CCD and 8MB L2 from the Zen 4 cores.

Now, one interesting thing to note is that the Ryzen 7 7800X chip has not received any updates from AMD till date. It’s likely that AMD wants to replace that part with the successor to the Zen 4-core (3D V-Cache) Ryzen 7 5800X3D. If that were the case, then we can expect an update to the CPU lineup later this year V-Cache parts are confirmed for the end of the fourth quarter of 2022 Run by AMD themselves. Also, based on segmentation alone, the Ryzen 7 7700X looks like it will fare really well in the mainstream segment.

AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 6 Core “Zen 4” Desktop CPU

Finally, we have the most budget-level chip (if you can call it that, but the prices won’t reflect that), the Ryzen 5 7600X. It will be a 6-core and 12-thread part with a high base clock of 4.7GHz and a single-core boost frequency of 5.3GHz. The CPU will also run at 105W TDP (142W PPT), which is significantly higher than its 65W predecessor, although that’s a sacrifice you have to pay to achieve faster clock speeds. The CPU will carry 38 MB of cache memory coming from 32 MB L3 and 6 MB L2.
