AMD may be close to releasing the first Ryzen 7000 CPUs based on the Zen 4 architecture, Tom’s Hardware reports based on specs posted on MilyWay@Home. From this it can be concluded that the specs of a pre-production model appear online. The Ryzen 7000 series was previously expected to be released in the 3rd quarter of this year, which was underlined by the latest information.
The specifications belong to a variant of Stepping 1. There’s talk of a 1024 KB cache, probably double the L2 cache compared to the Ryzen 9 5950X. Other features are unclear. The most important news, then, is that AMD is in the final stages of Zen 4 development, and the upcoming Ryzen 7000 series isn’t far off. Meanwhile, the Zen+-based Ryzen Pro 6000 series refresh was also announced on April 19.
