In addition to the highly anticipated 3D V-Cache version, AMD launched a non-X version of the Ryzen 7000 processor at the same time at CES 2023, including Ryzen 9 7900 / Ryzen 7 7700 / Ryzen 5 7600. The power consumption is set at 65W, and the target mainstream user groups.

It can be seen from the specifications that the Ryzen 7000 non-X series processors have 3 different core configurations, and the scale echoes the X series products of the same digital model, but the storage capacity remains the same, the clock frequency is lower, and the standard power consumption varies from 175W to 175W. Reduced to 65W, PPT (Package Power Tracking) dropped from 230W to 88W.
Compared to the X-series, non-X-series box products will come with a heatsink, the Ryzen 9 7900 and Ryzen 7 7700 have a Wraith Prism heatsink with a copper bottom heat pipe and RGB lighting effects, and the Ryzen 5 7600 has an aluminum extruded Wraith Stealth heatsink radiator for the module.
rendering operation
From the Cinebench R20 / R23 data, it can be seen that the multi-core performance of Ryzen 9 7900 is about 80% ~ 90% of that of Ryzen 9 7900X due to the effect of lower clock speed, which can tie or win slightly with Core i5-13600K. The Ryzen 7 7700 and Ryzen 5 7600 fell back more with core count and performance.
In terms of the single core performance, the difference is only about 10%.
Video editing / encoding / decoding
For audio and video editing, we use PugetBench launched by Puget Systems to encode clips for Adobe Premiere Pro, and use the Blackmagic RAW Speed Test to test the decoding of RAW files. The score distribution is similar to the multi-core rendering calculation, but the gap is slightly reduced. Only the Ryzen 5 7600 has the least number of cores, and the data is slightly behind her
Overall effectiveness
Geekbench’s single-core and multi-core score distributions are roughly similar to the rendering operations mentioned above. In the test of CrossMark business application software, Core i5-13600K achieved a better overall score due to its productivity and better response speed.
3DMark
In the Time Spy test that simulates DirectX 12 games, Intel processors are relatively easy to achieve higher CPU scores, but the effect on GPU scores is not significant. CPU Profile results are similar to multi-core rendering.
game performance
Among the 22 AAA games we tested, the Core i5-13600K is basically still ahead, and there are few that beat the Ryzen 9 7900X. The CPU AMD 3″ (Hitman 3) Only in “FINAL FANTASY XIV: Endwalker” and “Assassin Mission” More advantages.
Roughly, the score distribution is Core i5-13600K > Ryzen 9 7900X > Ryzen 9 7900 > Ryzen 7 7700 > Ryzen 5 7600, but Ryzen 7 7700 and Ryzen 5 7600 will lead Ryzen in some games that require latency between -lower core and 790X 9 Ryzen 9 7900.
For competitive first-person games, AMD CPU has an advantage in Full HD 1080p and WQHD 1440p resolutions, but when it comes to 4K UHD 2160p resolution, Core i5-13600K surpasses all opponents, which is amazing.
Power Consumption vs. Temperature
The power consumption performance is the highlight of this non-X version of the Ryzen 7000 processor. All three models, Ryzen 9 7900, Ryzen 7 7700, and Ryzen 5 7600, regardless of the number of cores, have a maximum power consumption of approx. 90W.
The temperature may be due to different quality characteristics of wafers and corresponding burning clocks, Ryzen 9 7900 is the lowest temperature, and Ryzen 7 7700 and Ryzen 5 7600 go higher and higher in order. Of course, the power consumption and temperature are much lower than the Ryzen 9 7900X and Core i5-13600K.
Summarize
Although due to the operating clock adjustment, the performance of the non-X series Ryzen 7000 processors will of course be slightly inferior to the X series. However, the full load power consumption of the 12-core / 24-thread Ryzen 9 7900 is less than 40% of the usage of the Ryzen 9 7900X, but it can achieve 85% of the multi-core performance of the Ryzen 9 7900X ■ Small form factor enclosure users control the energy consumption.
In terms of power consumption, if the PCIe 5.0 or other expansion functions of high-end motherboards are not used, these non-X Ryzen 7000 series 3 processors can play full performance when paired with mid-level to entry-level B650 motherboards. the price is also more affordable.
Of course, users who want better gaming performance can look forward to the upcoming X3D Ryzen 7000 series processors that will be launched in February.
