This fall, AMD’s Ryzen 7000 (Raphael) processors with Zen 4 cores will be available to challenge the top CPUs now available. However, the probable specifications for the upcoming chips have been leaked to us by hardware leaker Enthusiastic Citizen. Then unexpectedly, ASRock denied that the information originated from the company via their Weibo account, indicating that the specifications are definitely accurate.
Ryzen 7000 will have a maximum of 16 cores and 32 threads, similar to Ryzen 5000 (Vermeer). Some people might find this upsetting because very early speculations suggested AMD might include up to 24 cores in its consumer CPUs. However, AMD has minimal justification to increase the number of cores in its desktop Ryzen processors.
If Intel’s hybrid antics with the Performance cores (P-Cores) and Efficiency cores are excluded, the chipmaker already has the most cores on a consumer chip (E-Cores). The Ryzen 7000’s rival, Raptor Lake, boasts up to 24 cores, including eight P-cores and sixteen E-cores.
The newest and greatest AMD Zen 4 cores will be found in the 5nm CPUs, which the chipmaker estimates will provide over 15% faster single-threaded performance and 35% higher multi-threaded performance than Zen 3.
Additionally, Ryzen 7000 has a doubled L2 cache and boosts clock speeds of 5.5 GHz. Sadly, the L3 cache is unaffected because all the preceding advances had a price. Additionally, Ryzen 7000 will increase the TDP ceiling by 62% over Ryzen 5000, to 170W (230W peak power).
It will hand over control to the Ryzen 9 7950X in place of the Ryzen 9 5950X. The 4.9 GHz boost clock on the former was already quite high. The Ryzen 9 7950X, however, could reach a peak speed of 5.7 GHz, crushing the previous flagship by a 16 percent differential in boost clock rates. The processor would reach higher clock rates depending on the workload; the boost clock is AMD’s rated standard.
In place of the Ryzen 9 5900X and Ryzen 7 5700X, respectively, will be the Ryzen 9 7900X and Ryzen 7 7700X. We should expect the new Zen 4 processors to have boost clock speeds that are 17 percent higher as a result. It’s odd that the Ryzen 7 7800X was not mentioned in the leak, which virtually suggests that the Ryzen 7 5800X may receive a successor or that the replacement may arrive later than expected.
AMD originally announced the Ryzen 7 5800X for Zen 3, and then nearly a year later, the Ryzen 7 5700X. When the Ryzen 7 5700X hit the retail market, it was already too late because faster and less expensive Alder Lake CPUs from Intel were available.
For gamers, the Ryzen 5 7600X is probably the most alluring SKU. It is a significantly improved version of the Ryzen 5 5600X, a gaming CPU that was previously very strong. The Ryzen 5 7600X, which uses the more recent Zen 4 cores, may launch with a 15 percent faster boost clock.
