AMD has taken their game to the next level and has challenged Intel on all fronts and even winning in some areas. Everyone was expecting AMD to launch their highly anticipated processors at CES 2021 and they haven’t disappointed anyone.
AMD has announced reduced-TDP alternatives to the award-winning AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900X and AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800X desktop processors, coming to pre-built OEM systems only.
Powered by the new “Zen 3” core architecture and with a lower 65W TDP, the Ryzen 9 5900 desktop processor offers an average of 24% faster 1080p gaming across select titles compared to the prior generation.
Product specification:
Model | Cores/Threads | Boost5/Base6 Frequency (GHz) | Cache (MB) | TDP (Watts) |
AMD Ryzen 9 5900 | 12C/24T | Up to 4.7 / 3.0 GHz | 70 | 65 |
AMD Ryzen 7 5800 | 8C/16T | Up to 4.6 / 3.4 GHz | 36 | 65 |
It would have been great if AMD had made them available for all the people via retailers.
