Explainer: 2023 AMD Processors CPU Guide

what's up everyone the Silicon Battle of Intel versus AMD has been intriguing to see the least most especially in recent years with AME catching up and even surf passing the long-time popularity of Intel to a degree so if you're in the market 14 AMD whether it be for your next PC setup or maybe a DMD equipped laptop we'll be going over a simple guide to help you choose which AMD CPU to get it's Louisa fugatech let's get to it before we get into AMD specifically let's get acquainted with some common and important processor lingo core is a processing unit within a CPU a CPU with more cores can perform more tasks simultaneously which can lead to better performance in multi-threaded applications a thread on the other hand is a virtual Processing Unit within a CPU it's a sequence of instructions that can be run independently where processor or a CPU overall threads help to make computer programs run faster and Smoother by breaking up tasks into smaller pieces that can be executed independently clock speeds are measured in gigahertz this refers to the number of cycles of processor can perform per second higher clock speeds generally lead to better performance but this can vary depending on the specific processor architecture and other factors you will also see on each processor spec sheet L1 L2 and LC cache a cache is simply a small amount of memory within a CP that stores frequently used data for quick access more Cache can lead to better performance especially in applications that rely heavily on memory access L1 L2 and L3 are different levels of memory on a processor which helps reduce latency and increase speed of memory access when the processor needs to access data it checks the cache starting with the smallest and fastest type of cache which is L1 and progresses to the largest and slowest type L3 until the data is found you'll usually see L3 cache most notably listed among AMD processors with the base ryzen 5 having 32 megabytes and the highest and ryzen 9 up to 128 megabytes DDP or thermal design power refers to the maximum amount of power a CPU can consume and the amount of heat it can generate under normal usage this is important to consider When selecting a CPU and cooler for your build let's now start with our EMD names or processors since through their all-new 7000 series in 2023 they sort of switch things up with their namescape the first digit refers to the year or generation of the processor with 7 designated for 2023 you'll usually see it preferred as a ryzen 7000 series with the latest being the ryzen 70040 series in this generation then the next is the market segment this ranges from 1 to 9 and simply States what type of AMD processor it is one is athon silver two athon gold 3 and 4 Verizon 3 5 and 6 Verizon 5 7 Verizon 7 8 for both ryzen 7 and 9 and 9 Verizon 9. next is the chips architecture where one refers to Zen one two version two so on and so forth present four main game release latest architecture this is particularly important since AME tends to mix different architectures in the same Series so our processors General generation itself technically doesn't indicate how advanced or modern it is such as the ryzen 7000 mobile chips currently having both ryzen 7040 and 730 versions simply meaning one is built on Zen 4 and the other on Zen 3 architecture the fourth number before the letter lets consumers know different chips with different versions of the same architecture it's either a zero for a slower chip and 5 for a faster or upper model chip the last is a letter that indicates the chips PDP mobile processors ending in each X have a 55 watt PVP those ending each s are up to 35 Watts you are meant for ultra thin laptops or dvps ranging from 15 to 28 Watts C are for Chromebooks and E are the low powered 9 watt versions of few chips but in hindsight or fanless while in desktops you'll usually see X to mean a version of a processor with a high higher Club speed with the latest being those that end in x3d that feature emds 3D V cache technology to boost gaming performance now with that out of the way let's get to the actual processors themselves the rising line of processors are designed for desktops and laptops they come in different tiers ranging from the entry level ryzen 3 to the highest end ryzen 9. nowadays they're commonly built on the Zen 4 architecture which offers improved performance and efficiency over previous generations the ryzen 5 series is designed for mainstream desktop and laptop users who need a balance of performance and value and they're generally the best option for most people especially with the 7000 series and the zenfor architecture they've become a pretty good chip for gaming content creation and productivity tasks ryzen 5 desktop processors include both the ryzen 7 7600 and 7600x these processors typically have 6 cores and 12 threads and offer strong single threaded and multi-threaded performance for most users the ryzen 7 series of processors are designed for users we need more performance than the ryzen 5 series can offer currently there were three Verizon 7 700 the 7700x and the 7800 X 3D these processors typically have 8 cores and 16 threads and offer even stronger single threaded and multi-threaded performance they're a good choice for users who need to run demanding applications to content creation or even high-end gaming there is a 9 series is designed for high-end desktop and workstation users who need the best performing ryzen chip now there's a handful of them with the ryzen 7900 7900 X and 7900 X 3D having 12 cores and 24 threats meanwhile the highest and ryzen 9 7950x and 7950x3d have 16 cores and 32 threads they're a good choice for users who need to run the most Landing applications such as 3D rendering scientific simulations or those who just want one of the fastest chips out there for gaming now you may be wondering where is the more budget-friendly ryzen 3 when in 2023 there aren't any new 7000 series ryzen 3 processors with the last mid widely available being the ryzen 3 3000 Series watched way back in 2020 which were some of the last zen2 architecture ryzen chips we saw then we have the Athlon series which is designed for Budget gorgeous users who still need solid performance these processors typically have four cores and four threads and offer good value for basic operating tasks such as web browsing email and office productivity nowadays you can see 7000 series athon processors on budget laptops however if you're looking to get an Atom Processor for your low budget desktop build you're kind of stuck with the Athlon 3000g which was released back in 2019 the threadripper series as the name implies can hypothetically rip through threads since they're designed for high-end desktop and workstation users who need Extreme Performance to show you how overpowered amd's threadripper series is one of their fastest chips the AMD ryzen 97950x has a mass DDP of 170 Watts 16 cores and 32 threads you know that's pretty impressive if you ask me and the threadripper light up can get a Max the ADB of up to 200 AP Watts which is insane on top of that they typically have up to 64 cores in up to 128 threads offering unmatched single threaded and multi-threaded performance they're a good choice for users who need to run the most demanding applications such as 8K video editing 3D rendering and large scale simulation you might also have heard of emd's pro lineup of processors like ryzen Pro iPhone Pro and even threadripper Pro although you can find these chips on retail these are usually made for Enterprise or companies and are more focused on security and that wraps it up on the processors but here are some other things to know both ryzen and threadripper processors use amd's Zen architecture which is designed to deliver high performance and efficiency the latest Zen 3 architecture offers improvements in both single threaded and multi-in threaded performance over previous generations the ryzen and threadripper processors use different sockets so it's important to make sure your motherboard is compatible with the processor you choose ryzen processors use the am5 or in older models the am4 socket while thread Vapor processors use a trx4 or strx4 socket AMD processors are known for their ability to be overclocked which can improve performance even further this is simply the process of increasing the clock speed of a CPU Beyond its Factory specifications however overclocking can also increase power consumption and heat output so it's important to make sure your cooling system is up to the task then there's a topic of apus Apu stands for Accelerated Processing Unit it's a type of computer processor that combines a CPU and a GPU on the same chip the majority of ryzen processors come with their integrated Radeon graphics which can be a good option for basic graphic tasks in budget systems for laptops where authenticated graphics card isn't necessary however if you plan to use your system for more demanding applications like gaming or professional video editing and dedicated GPU is recommended AMD processors are generally priced competitively compared to their Intel counterparts making them a good choice for Budget purchase users however high-end threadripper processors can be quite expensive so it's important to choose the right processor that fits your needs and budget so that wraps it up for this guide to AMD processors in 2020c which do you prefer Intel or AMD we'd love to hear why you prefer
