Price of AMD Ryzen 7000 processors
According to the leak shared by RedGamingTech a while ago, processor prices for the Ryzen 7000 series have emerged. While confirming the release date of the processors, the leak source states that their prices will be as follows:
- Ryzen 5 7600: $229

AMD Radeon RX 7000 graphics cards by the end of the year
AMD has also confirmed that high-end RDNA 3-based graphics cards will be released later this year. It seems to follow a similar path to the Zen 3 and RDNA 2 launches, which were released at short intervals. In the statement made, the critical point is the upper level statement. In other words, mid and entry-level graphics cards will probably be released in 2023. So we’ll probably see the introduction of RDNA 3-based Radeon RX 7000 cards in October or November, with a clear date likely to be given at the launch of Ryzen processors.
Demand for AMD EPYC 9000 processors is already high
Finally, AMD’s EPYC 9000 series processors codenamed Genoa, developed for servers and data centers, will be released towards the end of the year. Lisa Su also states that there is already a great demand for these processors. In addition, Bergamo EPYC processors optimized for invention will be released early next year.
As a result, in just a few months, we will see all of AMD’s next-generation solutions. Nvidia and Intel will also come up with their own solutions in this time period. Frankly, we can say that intense competition awaits us.
