Perhaps the biggest announcement with Zen 4 is PCIe 5.0. Yes, that means no more bend CPU pins during installation or if you happen to drop your processors. AMD has stated for a while now that it wanted to move away from its current AM4 socket with AM5, which will come with a 1718-pin LGA socket. Zen 3 will also introduce a new socket, AM5. Please show us some actual performance, AMD! ![]() For a fraction of the cost! Of course, we need to see actual benchmarks, and I wouldn’t put much into those slides. The single-thread performance caught my eye, as AMD is stating that even the Zen 4 Ryzen 5 7600x beats Intel’s 12th-gen i9 12900k. Of course, AMD also showed some slides showing Zen 4’s power. Thankfully, AMD has stated that current CPU coolers will work with Zen 3 when it is released. ![]() However, Zen 3’s TDP (Thermal Design Power) is also quite higher than what we’re used to. Ryzen 9 7950x – 16 Core/32 Thread, up to 5.7 GHz, 80MB Cache – $699Īs you can see, the price points are very attractive, especially when looking to upgrade from AMD’s ZEN 3, or possibly from Intel’s 11th or 12th generation of processors.
