AMD Ryzen 5 7600X specs announced, bad news for Intel

Among the new members of the Zen 4 architecture family, the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X processor is the model with the lowest features for now. Although it is behind the other members of the series, it would be wrong to call it “the model with the lowest features” for such a processor. Because if we look at the performance and game data shared by AMD, the new processor is strong enough to compete with the powerful models of its rival, Intel.

The processor comes from the 5 nm FinFet production technology and has six cores. There are 12 threads in the thread section. The base clock speed of the processor, which is more modest in terms of the number of cores, is determined as 4.7 GHz. We see the lowest value among the four models regarding maximum clock speed. It has a top clock speed of 5.3 GHz.

The cache amount of the model is 38 MB in total. 32 MB is the L3 cache, and 6 MB is the L2 cache. With all these features, the TDP value no longer decreases, and it appears as 105W TDP, as in the 7700X model.

AMD has shared more performance data for this model. The brand made a game compared with the old generation. In addition, a game comparison was made with the Intel i9-12900K model. Compared with the Ryzen 5 5600X model, the Ryzen 5 7600X showed 5% to 40% better gaming performance.

In the tests made with the Intel i9-12900K model, it was determined that the Ryzen 5 7600X model showed 5% better gaming performance. Of course, this information is again shared by AMD.
