Over the past 12 months, AMD has launched over 20 Ryzen CPUs and APUs, spanning almost the entire PC market, from premium to budget, into nearly all parts of the premium PC market, from gaming to professional, and mobile to desktop.
March 2017 – Ryzen 7
This is where it all began, with AMD releasing three 8-core/16-thread Ryzen chips - the 3.6 GHz Ryzen 7 1800X, 3.4 GHz Ryzen 7 1700X, and the 3.0 GHz Ryzen 7 1700. These chips, which were priced between $499 and $349, gave Intel chips priced at twice the price a run for their money in benchmark tests and real-world application.
These chips were later followed up by the 6-core/12-thread 3.6GHz Ryzen 7 1600X and the 4-core/8-thread 3.5GHz Ryzen 7 1500X.
