AMD Ryzen 7000: 5 nm desktop CPUs coming September 27th

AMD reveals the new architecture with Zen4 desktop CPUs, codenamed “Raphael”.

On the 27th of September, the long awaited Ryzen 7000 will hit PC stores across the nation, and with it dozens of supporting motherboards.

What was confirmed yesterday was that this generation of processors are here to eat away additional market share from Intel, proposing clocks and cash memory equivalent or beyond what is expected out of Intel incoming Raptor Lake.

According to AMD, the flagship Zen4 desktop CPU with 16 cores and 32-threads will boost up to 5.7 GHz, and it will cost 699 USD. Meanwhile, Ryzen 9 7900X with 12 cores and 24 threads and boost up to 5.6 GHz will retail at 549 USD.
