Final specifications and pricing for AMD’s forthcoming Ryzen 7000 Non-X CPU lineup for the AM5 platform have been revealed. The AMD Ryzen 7000 Non-X CPU range is no secret, we have seen specifications and prices of these processors leak out in earlier leaks but the latest slide deck that comes from Videocardz not only confirms those but also the chips these Zen 4 parts will be competing against. As always, the trio of CPUs will be employing the 5nm Zen 4 core architecture and will be a modest tweak of the existing Zen 4 SKUs.

AMD Ryzen 9 7900

The AMD Ryzen 9 7900 processor will have 12 cores, 24 threads, 76 MB of cache (64 MB L3 + 12 MB L3), and a maximum clock speed of 5.4 GHz. The CPU will price at $429 US which is a difference of $120 US versus the Ryzen 9 7900X. While the base clock remains to be seen, the boost clock sees a 200 MHz reduction but at the price point, this 12-core chip looks incredible & I can already imagine a lot of consumers moving to this sub-$500 US 12-Core Zen 4 chip. AMD will place the processor alongside the Intel Core i9-13900 and Core i9-12900 CPUs.

AMD Ryzen 7 7700

The Ryzen 7 7700 comes next, with 8 cores, 16 threads, 40 MB of cache (32 MB L3 + 8 MB L3), and a maximum clock speed of up to 5.3 GHz. The CPU will cost $329 USD, which is $70 USD less than the Ryzen 7 7700X, which costs $399 USD. The Ryzen 7 7700 looks to be clocked just 100 MHz lower than the Ryzen 7 7700X which is impressive given its 65W power budget. Given the 1.375x multiplier for the PPT, the total TDP should be approximately 90-100W. The Ryzen 7 7700 will be positioned against the Core i7-13700 and Core i7-12700.

AMD Ryzen 5 7600

Finally, the AMD Ryzen 5 7600 will include 6 cores, 12 threads, 38MB of cache (32MB L3 + 6MB L2), and a maximum clock speed of up to 5.1GHz. The CPU will cost $229 USD, which is $70 USD less than the Ryzen 5 7600X, which costs $299 USD. The boost clock is 200 MHz lower than the ‘X’ chip. The Ryzen 5 7600 will be positioned against the Core i5-13600 & Core i5-12600 CPUs.

AMD is advertising that these chips will come with either a Wraith Prism (Ryzen 9 7900 / Ryzen 7 7700) or a Wraith Stealth (Ryzen 5 7600) CPU cooler. Now Intel will also bundle its Non-K 13th Gen CPUs with its brand new Laminar series coolers based on the TDP spec so both chipmakers will have a small value added for mainstream users but we still suggest that users get aftermarket cooling options if they have the budget to get the most out of the CPU.

Overall, the chips appear to give the best performance per dollar value on the AM5 platform, and we may see cheaper A620 motherboards by the middle of 2023. AMD Ryzen 7000X3D 3D V-Cache CPUs will also be unveiled at CES 2023. The Non-X processors will be available in stores on January 10th.
