One of the first pieces of information about the Ryzen 7000 desktops that leaked from the official leak materials was the 125W and 170W TDP information. The person who expanded these numbers apparently had access to the right values - but misinterpreted them.
The current offer of processors for the AM4 socket mainly includes 65W and 105W processors. This value in the AMD submission means TDP, ie the consumption in real load at which the processor reaches the specifications (especially clock speeds, even at temperatures just below the limit). If the processor is equipped with a heat sink that can dissipate more heat, the processor boost can reach higher values up to 88 watts for 65W models and up to 144 watts for 105W models. The limit deviation from the TDP value is therefore around 36%.
| TDP | 65W | 105W | 125W |
|---|---|---|---|
| power limit | 88W | 144W | 170W |
This will be no different for the Ryzen 7000. Some models will have a 125W TDP, while the power limit will be 170 watts (ie the usual ~ 1.36 × above the TDP).
AMD further clarified through Robert Hallock that the game demo, in which the indicator in the corner of the screen indicated a frequency of up to 5520 MHz, ran on a 16-core processor, the cores of which reached 5.2-5.5 GHz, most of which were around 5.5 GHz. The processor carried a water cooler.
Other clarifications mentioned overclocking support on B650 chipsets (because AMD did not explicitly mention it on Computex, there were opinions that it would be dropped), and then that the RDNA 2 integrated GPU would support video compression / decompression (let’s say at least decompression was certain, otherwise one of the main reasons for the presence of this graphics would fall – the ability to turn off separate graphics in notebooks outside the game load).
