Recently, AMD unveiled the Ryzen 7000 Series Desktop CPU powered by the brand-new ‘Zen 4’ architecture. The new AMD Socket AM5 platform combines with the first 5nm desktop PC CPUs to give a blazing performance for gamers and content creators requiring high-end devices.  

Due to its impressive recent growth, AMD is currently among the world's top component producers. Its Ryzen CPUs, which have significantly competed with Intel, have driven much of the increase. Stepping up from Ryzen’s previous series of CPUs, the 7000 series promises to bring a lot to the table, especially for gamers. The Zen 4 architectural chips have a greater IPC and a larger single-threaded boost than what was announced at Computex a few months ago, so the new CPUs are significantly quicker than expected. 

Speaking about the Ryzen 7000 Series, Saeid Moshkelani, senior vice president and general manager from the Client Business Unit of AMD, said, “The AMD Ryzen 7000 Series brings leadership gaming performance, extraordinary power for content creation, and advanced scalability with the new AMD Socket AM5.” 

AMD EXPO technology, which is brand-new for the Ryzen 7000 Series Desktop processors and designed for AMD Socket AM5 motherboards, will provide users advanced profile settings for DDR5 memory overclocking. The new CPUs will work with dual-channel DDR5 memory and PCIe Gen 5, which supports up to 24 lanes and allows for previously unheard-of system speeds. Since the instructions per clock (IPC) have increased up to 13%, it will directly increase frame rates, and the single-threaded metrics will get a performance improvement of up to 29%. 

According to the announcement, Ryzen 7000 Series Desktop processors are expected to be available globally from September 27, 2022. The specifications of the various series are mentioned below.
