America's online shopShopBLTI carelessly displayed Ryzen's lineup & price. There are 3 kinds of Ryzen initially released, each of which is 8 cores / 16 threads "Ryzen R7" series.

According to this information, the high-end model "Ryzen R 7 1800 X(YD 180 X BC AE WOF) "is TDP 95 W and the price in North America is 490.29 dollars (about 56,000 yen). Since the end of the part number is "WOF", according to the AMD convention, it can be predicted that there is no CPU cooler. Similarly CPU cooler "Ryzen R 7 1700 X(YD170XBCAEWOF) "is TDP 95 W with $ 381.72 (about 43,000 yen). And it should be noticed that the 8 core R7 series includes TDDP 65W "Ryzen R 7 1700(YD 1700 BBAE BOX) "is prepared. North American price is 316.59 dollars (about 36,000 yen).


At the Ryzen recital at the end of 2016 there was an explanation that "Performance equivalent to Intel Core i7 6900 K (8 cores / 16 threads) with 95 W" was explained, but if the high end model "R 7 1800 X" is 490 dollars, Half a price of 999 dollars (about 110,000 yen) Intel Core i7 6900 K, there is a possibility that it may have the same or higher performance. At the time of article creation, ShopBLT'sRyzen pageIs still available for viewing.


However, the leak price reported in Europe at almost the same time differs greatly from North America. According to information obtained from the parties concerned on condition that El Chapuzas Informático is anonymous, the R7 1800X is 599.99 euros (about 72,000 yen) at the value added tax, 469.99 euros (about 57,000 yen) at R 7 1700 X, R 7 The 1700 will be 389.95 euros (about 47,000 yen). Either way, the high-end model R7 1800X seems to be able to compete well with the high-end model made by Intel.

The specifications of El Chapuzas Informático are also specs, 4 GHz / 8 cores / 16 threads for R 7 1800 X, 3.8 GHz / 8 cores / 16 threads for R 7 1700 X, 3.7 GHz / 8 cores / 16 threads for R 7 1700 It seems to be.

If the price leaked via ShopBLT is correct, AMD Ryzen will be a CPU with a cost performance to overwhelm Intel, and from the Socket A generation to the Socket 939 generation costly performance over Intel "AMD Golden Age" that surpassed Intel It is likely to come again. By the way, Intel is reported to urgently release Core i 7 - 7740 K and Core i 5 - 7640 K new models to counter Ryzen.

With regard to Core i 5 - 7640 K, it is anticipated that hyperthreading correspondence will be madeThere is also, and if this is the fact, I can see Intel's panic. Whether the cause of "Intrustrating" is in the performance or price of AMD Ryzen or not will be clarified by the official announcement of AMD rumored as February 28, 2017 and the release expected to be in early March That's right.
