PC gamers can look forward to more powerful processors, after AMD unveiled its Ryzen 7000 series of consumer desktop processors.
In a livestream, AMD Chair and CEO Dr Lisa Su broke down the company’s goals for its latest processor – including making it the fastest CPU for gamers and the most compute for creators.
The Ryzen 7000 series of CPUs unveiled were the 7950X, the 7900X, the 7700X and the 7600X.
The flagship in the series is the 16-core Ryzen 9 7950X, which AMD claims to be the fastest CPU in the world.
According to the American semiconductor company, the new chips will have improved performance over the earlier generation of Ryzen 5000 models – boasting of almost 30% faster gaming and over 40% better performance in apps.
AMD also claimed the 7950X is faster than Intel’s fastest chip, the 12900K.
In fact, AMD said even its entry-level offering – the Ryzen 5 7600X – beats the 12900K in terms of performance and frame rates.
The Ryzen 7000 processors will retail starting from 27 September, starting from US$299.
AMD’s earlier generation of its Ryzen processors boasted of a battery life that can deliver up to 30 hours of unplugged fun – so the Ryzen 7 should scale with this.
Pair its Ryzen processors with its Radeon GPUs and you’ll likely have a PC that really can’t be beat.
Like its Radeon 600M Series graphics, one of the world’s most powerful PC processor graphics.
AMD’s Radeon 600M graphics boasts of all-new RDNA 2 graphics technology combined with fast DDR5 memory to deliver up to 2x faster game performance than last gen.
Which means better frame rates and improved visuals.
It’s Radeon RX 600M Series boasts vivid visuals and 1440p performance – which is a cool four times as many pixels as 1080p.
In fact, it’s considered to be one of the best graphics cards out there.
