Spanish website ElChapuzasInformatico has leaked the official slides for AMD’s 2nd generation Ryzen CPUs, revealing the specs, prices and first gaming benchmarks. As we can see below, AMD will be offering six new CPUs which are: Ryzen 3 2200G, Ryzen 5 2400G, Ryzen 5 2600, Ryzen 5 2600X, Ryzen 7 2700 and Ryzen 7 2700X.
AMD’s flagship CPU will be the Ryzen 7 2700X which will compete against Intel’s i7 8700K. The AMD Ryzen 7 2700X will feature 8 cores, will support 16 threads, will be clocked at 3.7 GHz, can be turbo boosted at 4.35 GHz and will cost around $369. On the other hand, the Ryzen 7 2700 will be clocked at 3.2Ghz and can be turbo boosted at 4.1Ghz and will cost around $299. Below you can find the prices and specs for the rest AMD Ryzen CPUs.
Surprisingly enough, AMD has shared the first gaming benchmarks at 1080p and admitted that its flagship CPU, the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, is not faster than its direct competitor, the Intel i7 8700K. According to the graphs, the new Ryzen 7 CPU is around 7.7% slower in a variety of games than the i7 8700K. As such, those interested solely in PC games should stick with Intel’s CPU.
Compared to Ryzen 7 1800X, the upcoming AMD Ryzen 7 2700X CPU is faster by 5% in a variety of games at 1080p. Yes, AMD is finally offering proper CPU benchmarks and not ones that are in ridiculously high 4K resolutions. What’s also interesting is that the red team actually used NVIDIA’s GTX1080 for these tests.
Last but not least, the first X470 motherboards will launch this April, meaning that these new CPUs may also launch in the very same month.

Not bad. Time to spend a few hundred…
Amd is making good strides! Let’s hope intel take them more seriously and revise their pricing and offering.
Intel’s won’t start a price war until AMD takes a big piece of their market share.
Yea you’re probably right.
Looks like a pretty decent improvement considering it’s just a minor die shrink and process refinement. Only thing I’m really disappointed about is that it looks like the IPC hasn’t improved, as clock for clock scores are nearly identical. But they’re certainly competitive with Intel. Now only if we could get reasonably priced GPU’s and DRAM.
That comes with Zen 2 which design has already been finished. We all knew this was coming. This is huge improvement compared to what Team Blue has been doing.
IPC is increased mostly due memory latency improvements.
Most Ryzen CPUs top out at 3.9 or 4.0 with a few golden samples at 4.1
If AMD manages to have Ryzen 2 overclock to 4.35 on all cores, it would be a tremendous improvement. We’re talking 350 MHz improvement across 8 cores and 16 threads. Nothing to scoff at.
Waiting for i7 9800k to replace i7 4790k
Just another close minded Intel-pony, nothing to see here people.
Someone simply prefers a brand you don’t like and suddenly he’s ‘close minded’? Check a mirror, dude.
I see almost no reason to prefer A or B all that matters is performance per dollar and a given budget i don’t care what brand it is.
The point is that anyone can prefer anything, for a wide variety or reasons. That doesn’t necessarily mean someone is ‘close minded’.
close minded “having or showing rigid opinions or a narrow outlook”
So yeah if you only buy things from company A then yes you are close minded
No, not necessarily. If you buy only A products over B products out of some sense of corporate loyalty, then sure, you’re closed-minded.
But if you buy only A products over B products for legitimately reasons like, for example, increased performance at lower TDP then what’s the problem?
Same thing goes for people who buy only B products because they are more affordable than A products. Nothing wrong with that, there’s no ‘closed-mindness’ about it.
Well in that case i agree with you
In some game i7 4790k bottleneck my gtx 1080ti and i have problem with motherboard some time it does not recognise any bootable win i need to unplug and plug everything
If a good cpu bottlenecking the Gpu then the game is sh*t . I would not change my system for it . but if you have a 1080 ti you have moeny. And if you have money then get a 8700k .
And a 4790k can run AC: origin on stable 60 fps . But if you have a +120 hz monitor then you are ritch enough to have what ever HW u want.
Lol my salary barely 1100$ but i know how to save some penny
What do you expect from a 9800K? I actually think a 8700K is a nice upgrade already and i owned a 4790K for 2 years or so before i swapped it for a 1700
More fps 🙂
But going from a 4790K to a 1700 is literally a downgrade.
Who is still playing Crysis 3?
Nobody. It’s a benchmark.
The rumour goes there might not even be a 2800x, tension rises.
I don’t think it’s a problem.
2700X aligns better with Intel’s x700K naming scheme.
The 2700X is cheaper at launch than the 1800X and it’s faster anyway, so win-win.
“rumor”
“Rumour”
I’m English, like the language I’m using is and the one you’re attempting to use. Not the half-assed Yankee version.
😀
Sry man i never heard that there is a difference between rumor and rumour
😀
I said that cuz i never belive any rumors . Like gtx 2080 is coming or gta 6 coming in 2022 . Or the world is round .
Then I apologise for my reaction, thought you were picking a fight 😀 ??
Nooo god no 😀 i am not that kind of guy 😀
No no, just the guy who corrects others’ grammar lol ;p
I do that sometimes too :O
Well at least i know how to spell rumour 😀 english is my 3rd language and all i know come from games 😀
3 languages wow. I’d like to learn Italian eventually, probably because the women are beautiful lol.
One game? How about the rest of the games?
Zen+ was never going to be an upgrade for current ryzen owners like us at least not ryzen 7 owners or threadripper.
Zen2 or even Zen 3 will be a more worthy upgrade this is more of an ivy-bridge type of product over sandy
I love amd. But this is the same + 5% preformance what indel did before ryzen come out
Keep in mind this is the 2700X vs the 1800X plus this is nothing more then a refresh
Ryzen come out a year ago . And its preform the same ( if this test is true ) why would they do this ? . . . .
If they hiding the big guns like the 2800x what i hope is gona more cores and higher clocks then i be happy .
AMD fanboys dumped on Intel for yearly 5% performance bumps. I can’t wait to see the spin they use to praise AMD for doing the same thing, lol.
To be honest no one wanted this . Ppl want ryzen 2. .
AMD used a 1080 in the slides because it knows the majority of the population has that one instead of the Vega 64 (which is unfortunate).
On the other hand, Nvidia’s GPU poor leverage of Ryzen CPUs vs Intel CPUs has been well documented at this point.
I’m sure the performance increase of using Vega 64 instead of 1080 and the 2700X would show even more performance increases.

Your name says it all.
That may be but what you spewed all over the above post certainly looks like kool-aid…

AMD making crappy processors for almost a decade helped Intel remain a monopoly. The lack of a real competitor is the reason Intel is in the dominant position their in.
And how much faster 2700x will be comparedt o my ryzen 1700 that i have not overclocked it since i bought it on March 2017?
Why do AMD fans say this when facts don’t meet their dreams?
iGPU isn’t a partisan term (anymore). Some BIOSes use that term for any integrated graphics. The i stands for integrated, not for Intel.
