AMD has specifically designed the new Ryzen 7 processors for PC gamers, creators, and enthusiasts with 8-cores, 16-threads, and the new AM4 desktop platform, with two of its new chips bagging ‘highest-performing octa-core processor’ and ‘world’s lowest power octa-core processor’ for its 1800X and 1700 models, respectively. The new line of chips also bears new 8-core silicon design that runs 4.8 billion transistors and features 200m of wiring.
The company has also touted its new flagship 1800X chip ‘outperforming a similarly configured 8-core, 16-thread Intel Core i7-6900K in Cinebench R15 multi-threaded and Handbrake-based video transcoding, as well as showing comparable 4K gaming performance.’
