What does the affordable AMD Ryzen 5 7400F Zen 4 processor offer?
The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F actually offers an excellent price-performance ratio compared to models like the Ryzen 5 7600 and 7600X. The 7600 and 7600X are priced higher at $229 and $299 respectively. Here are the specifications of the new processor:
Ryzen 5 7400F specs
- Cores and threads: 6 cores and 12 threads.
- Boost frequency: 4.7 GHz (slightly lower compared to the Ryzen 5 7500F’s 5.0 GHz).
- Base frequency: Same as Ryzen 5 7500F.
- iGPU deficiency: It lacks an internal graphics processing unit (iGPU), so it requires an external graphics card.
- Performance: Expected to perform very close to the Ryzen 5 7500F, but with a slight difference in benchmark scores due to the lower boost frequency.
In fact, this model of AMD is mainly designed for OEMs and system integrators. However, retailers are also expected to offer this processor for individual sale. The Ryzen 5 7400F is also planned for the global market, but its price is not expected to exceed $150 in the international market.
