As of September 27, new AMD processors 7000 series have been released, consisting of four models: Ryzen 5 7600X, Ryzen 7 7700X, Ryzen 9 7900X and Ryzen 9 7950X. Prices range from $299 to $699.
This new line includes the Zen 4 architecture, which for the first time is characterized by speeds of up to 5.7 GHz. integrated RDNA 2 graphicsUp to 13 percent IPC increase, 5nm process core complex, 6nm I/O chip and 32MB L3 cache.

In addition, AMD surpasses the ‘socket’ AM4 and gives way to AM5, with LGA format. In other words, the processors make installation easier by eliminating the physical pins entering the socket of the motherboard with a total of 1718.
This means that yes or yes for the user, to make the generational leap from Ryzen 5000 to 7000, he has to replace his motherboard. In this sense, the company offered four ‘chipsets’: X670E, X670, B650E and B650.

The ‘B’s are more affordable, giving up some features, while the ‘X’s maximize overclocking possibilities and offer the best in terms of connectivity. On the other hand, it should be said that cards ending in ‘E’ bid. PCIe 5.0 on storage and graphics.
However, the motherboard is not the only thing that the user who wants to jump between generations needs to change. You should also invest in memory modules. DDR5-RAM. However, it’s not all ‘bad news’, the cooling systems used in the AM4 are still compatible with the AM5.

At EL TIEMPO we got access to the components that let us know what the new 7000 series processors have to offer. The configuration used was an Asrock X670E Taichi motherboard from G. Skill, 32GB DDR5 RAM (two 16GB modules). 2TB Kingston FURY Renegade PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD, a Corsair iCUE H100i RGB Pro XT Liquid Cooler, a Cougar BCM850W PSU, and a graphics card Palit’s RTX 3050 is NVIDIA’s new ‘partner’.
The Asrock X670E Taichi board has a ‘premium’ feel right out of the box: black with gold accents and carrying handle. Internally, it is divided into two compartments, one for the board and the other for components, cables, and accessories.
This presentation comes with a WiFi antenna and a small fan that can be mounted on top of an M.2 SSD to cool it.
Roughly two USB 4 Type-C ports on board, five USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, seven USB 3.2 Gen1, WiFi 6e, lightning gaming ports, one front USB 3.2 port, two PCIe Gen5 x16 slots, 8 Sata3, three M 2 (PCIe Gen 4×4) and a PCIe Gen 5×4 ‘hyper’ socket and an HDMI 2.1 port for using the Ryzen 7000’s integrated RDNA 2 graphics. form factor EATX: 30.5 cm x 26.7 cm.

Kingston Fury Renegade PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 is a small and thin SSD ready for PlayStation 5. Read speeds up to 7,300 MB/s and write speeds up to 7,000 MB/s.
In addition, a aluminum and graphene heatsinkprevents it from overheating during heavy use.
While this SSD doesn’t take advantage of the PCIe 5.0 support on the motherboard, its response times are very short, meaning programs, games, and more boot up fast, almost instantaneously.

Graphics cards are one of the most important components when building a PC for those looking for video games, multimedia production and working with data. And while there are dozens of different generations of possibilities on the market, Nvidia’s RTX family offers the benefits of artificial intelligence that can save a few pesos if the investment isn’t the cheapest available.
The company recently announced the 40 series, but the 30 series is still very much alive and is now more accessible thanks to the arrival of its predecessors and a larger number of available units.
In this assembly, we used the base of the 3050 series from Palit, NVIDIA’s new ‘partner’. This version has two 90mm fans, which, while pushing the graphics card to the limit of its capabilities, guarantees good temperature management and stability.
We played long hours of games like ‘Marvel’s Spider-Man’, ‘Call of Duty: Warzone’, ‘Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Beta)’ and ‘Boneworks’ on a Samsung 4K 60Hz TV. hovered between 97 and 98 percent with graphics quality ranging from high to very high.
Generally speaking, this graphics card may struggle to match its output resolution with its quality settings, but the AI makes it possible. Enabling DLSSEvery game mentioned except ‘Spider-Man’ achieved a steady 60 FPS. Even ray tracing can be applied.
It is worth saying that, despite the enormous graphics load, this graphics card is cooled. remains silent and almost imperceptible.
Its specs include 8GB of memory, GDDR6 DRAM, 1552MHz graphics clock, 1822MHz boost clock and HDMI 2.1.
We tested two processors with this configuration: Ryzen 5 76000X and Ryzen 9 7950X. The first has 6 cores and 12 threads, speeds of 4.7 to 5.3 GHz, 38MB of cache, and a TDP of 105W. The most powerful processor in the family with 16 cores and 32 threads, 80MB cache, 4.5 to 5.7 GHZ speeds and 170W TDP.
The temperature of the processors did not exceed 50 degrees Celsius, despite the loads in rendering and the game. It must be said that AMD considers up to 95 degrees Celsius as a normal temperature.
In single core tests, using Cinebench R23 without overclocking, Ryzen 5 reached 1,952 points and Ryzen 9 reached 2,007 points. In multi-core tests, the 7600X scored 14,805; 7950X, 36,880 points.
As for ‘overclocking’, the best processor of the 7000 series, Ryzen 9 7950X breaks records From the hands of AMD experts.
Using the REAKTOR 2.1 LN2 power meter, ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero and 32GB of G.SKILL DDR5 memory, it scored 48,235 with all cores on the CBR23. It hit 6.45 GHz, which is 7,814 points (+16.2) more than the previous record with LN2 cooling.
The power meter, on the other hand, hit 18,605 with all cores (6.5 GHz) on the CBR20 using a Kingpin T-Rex LN2, an ASROCK X670E Taichi motherboard and 32GB of G.SKILL DDR5 memory. This result was 2,914 points (+15.8) higher than the previous LN2 record.
