AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Processor Model Numbers Tumble Out

[btarunr]

An innocuous search through the media asset-bank on the AMD website revealed the processor model numbers of the four Ryzen 7000 series "Zen 4" chips the company plans to debut its next-generation lineup with. These include the Ryzen 9 7950X, the Ryzen 9 7900X, the Ryzen 7 7700X, and the Ryzen 5 7600X. Older reports theorized that AMD could stick to a slim launch cycle with just 4 SKUs to be launched initially, and the series expanding to cover various price-points, later in 2023. The company didn't provide any specifications of these processors. It is rumored that AMD could announce these processors as early as in August, with availability slated for mid-September, 2022.

7700X instead of a 7800X gives a tiny bit of hope for a decent launch price.

 

[Lew Zealand]

No 7600 non-X. I guess that's not a huge surprise.

...sez me with an R5 2600, lol!

Given current state of economy I have 0 hope for decent prices.

And better temps (i hope) than the mess they did with 5800x.

Right, who has some spare kidneys?

I wish you are right but honestly im expecting nothing short of 5800X MSRP if not worse , unless Intel decides to price RL agressively but given latest reports on RL performance i don't see that happening .

5800 OEM is a viable upgrade for less

I've got two of them, if you wanna trade for an arm and a leg.

still odd how AMD has both cpu and gpu name schemes so close together.

Radeon rx7900xt
Ryzen 7900x

You buy the best to be the best.
Not like nvidia, who buys rtx 3090 ti? The one who pairs it with 3900x - pathetic.

Jokes aside. Give us 7600...

I'm not sure if Im gonna get the new Ryzen. My 5800x is OK as it is and since I'm at the 4k res I really have no need for the 7800x. Maybe at some point in the future but for today I'm doing fine.

 

[spnidel]

new cpu, new mobo, and new ram? no thanks, see you in 2 generations when the latter 2 things mature
might get a cheapo 5800x3d to tide me over in the meantime... or not, considering most AAA games nowadays suck anyway

 

[Fierce Guppy]

All I'm interested in is the 7900X3D and I don't see it in the list.

Has it ever been necessary to upgrade a CPU so quickly anyway...?

 

[gffermari]

Does it mean that the 3D versions will come later or next year??

 

[ratirt]

It would depend on the CPU you have and what is your aim for the usage of the CPU. Time frame for which you have a CPU, in my case as you mentioned 'so quickly', is relative and not a factor for CPU change or not I think.

did i mis something? what happend to the 6000 series??

 

[Dirt Chip]

Somewhat like

6000 is a mobil series

Call me skeptical but I am pretty sure they are doing this because the 8 core zen 4 will not match the speed of the 5800X3D... hence 7700X

You need to be more specific by not matching the speed. You mean frequency or performance? If performance, in games or office use?
These are totally different things.
Also, there might be a distinction with the 7000 series with 3dcache and without. In my eyes there is no 7800x, since there's no point for it to be in the lineup. They might as well go with the 5700x not in the lineup but AMD decided 7700x will be the 8c part.

A few short years ago, there was no distinction. My how we've grown up!

There always was distinction but I guess less profound as it is now.

Mmhmm, let me fix what I said.
