AMD, what’s the focus? 65-watt Ryzen 7000s are almost identical in performance to their older brothers
The 65-watt AMD Ryzen 7900/7700/7600 processors debuted the other day, and now thematic resources have published their reviews of CPU data.
The Ryzen 5 7600 costs $230, the Ryzen 7 7700X costs $330, and the Ryzen 9 7900 costs $430. True, the usual Ryzen 7000 at some point significantly fell in price, and the difference with the new products is minimal.
The Ryzen 5 7600 is only 5% slower in applications than the Ryzen 5 7600X, and when compared to the Intel CPU, it is the level of the Core i5-12600K. The Ryzen 7 7700 is generally only 3% slower than its regular counterpart, and this is the level of the Core i7-12700K.
As for the Ryzen 9 7900, the difference with the regular version already reaches 12%, which is logical, given the significantly larger difference in TDP (65 and 170 W versus 65 and 105 W for the younger Ryzen). Because of this, the new product is between the Core i5-13600K and Core i7-13700K, but even the second one costs less.
At the same time, AMD’s new products are really significantly more economical than their more voracious counterparts, and even more so Intel processors. In particular, the difference between the Ryzen 9 7900 and the Core i5-13600K is more than double! True, we should not forget that Intel also has energy-efficient desktop CPUs, but we do not have their tests yet.
In general, we can say that the 65-watt Ryzen 7000 is almost always conditionally not inferior to its 105-watt and 170-watt relatives, while costing a little less. Perhaps AMD will lower prices for them in the near future, then they will become even more attractive. Regarding the comparison with Intel processors, we need to wait for the tests of the younger Raptor Lake to form a complete picture.

GeForce RTX 4090 can now fit into any case where there is at least one free slot. This makes the Alphacool ES water block possible.
The host of the Optimum Tech YouTube channel showed and talked about the new Alphacool product, which allows you to radically reduce the size of the GeForce RTX 4090. This is the Alphacool ES water block, which allows you to abandon the standard bulky cooling system.
The dimensions of the system are only 210 x 150 mm. In PC space, the GeForce RTX 4090 occupies only one slot with it – such a video card can be installed even in a very compact case designed for a Mini-ITX motherboard.
In tests, the water block performed well: the video card, being connected to a 280 mm radiator, heated up to 57 degrees Celsius in the Furmark stress test, heating in games was 53-54 degrees. True, this is in the conditions of an open stand, in a closed case the temperatures will obviously be higher.
The Alphacool ES for the GeForce RTX 4090 is available now for $166 and comes with a heat spreader plate. True, there is one caveat: the device is only compatible with the reference GeForce RTX 4090, as well as four versions of Inno3D production – X3 OC, iCHILL X3, iCHILL Frostbite and iCHILL Black.
