AMD Keynote: Ryzen 7040 Series Unveiled

AMD did not let its fans, enthusiasts, and critics hanging for long, as it immediately started with revealing the Ryzen 7040 series computer processors to the world, coming this March. According to Dr. Lisa Su, "Semiconductors are absolutely essential in everything we do," claiming that chips are "critical enablers" of modern life.

First off, the AMD 7040 Series processors feature the 4nm process technology, with transistors almost twice as many as the Ryzen 6000 series. Dr. Su claims that it is faster than x86 competitors and Apple, as demonstrated in a blender rendering application, 30 percent faster than Apple's top chip.

Moreover, this new chip extends battery life for devices, for up to 30 hours of video playback. Additionally, it features a new Ryzen AI feature under 7040, real-time gaming performance, and better security.

The Ryzen 7040 coming on March 2023, on ultrathin gaming notebooks, for more than 250 gaming laptops with the latest chip.

The CEO also shared the new processor for PCs and desktops with the AMD Ryzen 7 7000 series. All processors will feature a 5nm build, and use the AMD 3D V-Cache technology, a tech it introduced with 2022's AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

• AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D with AMD 3D V-Cache technology, 5nm processor, 8 cores with 16 threads, 5Ghz frequency boost, 104 MB of on-board cache
• AMD Ryzen 7 7900X3D with AMD 3D V-Cache technology, 5nm processor, 12 cores with 24 threads, 5.6Ghz frequency boost, 140 MB cache.
• AMD Ryzen 7 7950X3D with AMD 3D V-Cache technology, 5nm processor, 16 cores with 32 threads, 5.7Ghz frequency boost, 144 MB cache.

AMD reveals EA's "Star Wars Jedi: Survivor" actual game footage on the AMD Ryzen 7 7000 series, bundling the game with the CPU later in January. The Ryzen 7 7000 series will be available in February says Dr. Su.

Additionally, previous releases from AMD will also include 3D V-Cache moving forward, coming to the Ryzen 6000 and 7000 series.

AMD Ryzen 7045HX Series

In its quest to provide mobile devices and notebooks with AMD's top processors, Dr. Su unveiled the Ryzen 7045HX series CPUs that feature 16 Zen 4 cores, 80MB on-chip memory, 5.4GHz boost, RDNA2 Graphics, coming soon this February.

Partner companies like Lenovo announced the Legion Pro series, as well as HP laptops powered by the AMD Ryzen 7045HX.

The AMD CEO also took this time to unveil the Radeon 7600M XT GPUs coming also on February.
