AMD announced new Ryzen 7000 series processors (without the X) variant. The new update is not designed for extreme performance and comes with a much more reasonable thermal design power (TDP) of 65W. AMD introduces three distinct models: the Ryzen 9 7900, Ryzen 7 7700, and the Ryzen 5 7600 SKU. Read more
Only thing i'm interested for is TjMax on this CPUs. If it's same as x models, as a biggest AMD fanboy ever, i have to say i will pass this gen.....
If I may inquire: - Are you under NDA of sorts? When does it lift? - Did you get review samples? - Did you guys at the team have a good transition to the new year?
Now prices are finally where they should be. DDR5 price is dropped alot only issue are the motherboards. I may finally upgrade my 3800x.
If only boards are cheaper am5 adoption would be alot better. What happened with Bx50 series boards being 120-150$?
I hope You are right! I can't stand the thought that my CPU is running at 95 degrees celsius. I will only wait for some MBO prices to drop, and everything will be ready for the upgrade.
That was never gonna happen. First we'll get 7800/XT and probably will have to wait another quarter year after that for the 7700/XT. I'm waiting for the 7600/XT so it will be a long year...
Tj max is the max temp allowed. Intel has a max temp of 90-100 C depending on CPU model. You can always choice you own max temp in bios, if you do not like the 95 C. Look up ECO mode on the CPU, a non X looks to have the same TDP as the X version configured to ECO mode, so that will give you a very good idea of the temps. Short bursts could be higher temps, but a good aircooler should be good enough for most loads. This guy is using a tiny low profile ITX Noctua cooler on a 7950x and still gets 33.000 points in Cinebench, at game load the temps would be much lower.
