AMD Ryzen 7 5700X: Great at Gaming and Productivity at just 65W

Following the popular 8 core, 16 thread Ryzen 7 3700X, we are happy to bring back this 65W power efficiency “monster” into our line-up. A great option for those who use their system for productivity as well as streaming or recording their gaming sessions, typically running multiple applications in the background. The Ryzen 7 5700X can handle it all. Also a great option for those who consider upgrading using an SFF (Small Form Factor) system, the Ryzen 7 5700X only has a TDP of 65W, meaning it will run cool & quiet during long gaming sessions and requires less extreme cooling and a lower power supply. The performance speaks for itself!

Why Upgrade Now? Higher Framerates = Better Gaming on More Games!

With all these new Ryzen 5000 Series desktop processors and the experiences they enable, we hope you’re as excited as we are. So, why should you consider making a change to your system? One of our goals was to have the AMD Socket AM4 platform supported for as long as possible. With the great architecture that is “Zen”, each generation of Ryzen products allows us to innovate, bringing new, unprecedented levels of performance, while being able to use the same AM4 platform, for over 5 years now.
