AMD’s new processors based on Zen 4 architecture have been anticipated for a long time. While AMD might not launch the products until September, the official announcement of AMD about being present at the Gamescom 2022 hints at an imminent Ryzen 7000 announcement.
AMD’s official Twitter account in a Tweet has confirmed that it will attend Gamescom 2022. While it’s not AMD’s way to introduce new products at a gaming-oriented event, their direct competitor Nvidia also launched the Geforce RTX 2000 series at Gamescom.
Hey folks! @AMD is attending @gamescomand so am I!
Finally, to be able to visit this enormous event in person after a 2-year break feels refreshing. I can’t wait to see you all there! pic.twitter.com/wl4p1MFfkO

It should be noted that AMD is expected to unveil the Ryzen 7000 series on August 29the day following the conclusion of Gamescom.
Also, this year’s Gamescom, unlike the other events, will be an in-person event. AMD, however, hasn’t had an official announcement about their plans for the event, but it is expected that the event will lead to the announcement of the Ryzen 7000 series.
AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Specifications
In the new AMD Ryzen 7000, we will see a new process node, TSMC’s 5nm technology. Also, according to rumours, all Zen 4 processors will feature a base clock speed of 5+ GHz single core. Even the maximum TDP of the chips is expected to reach a whopping 170 Watts.
Furthermore, rumors state that Ryzen 7000 series processors will have 20%+ IPC upliftment. If this is true, then Intel 13th gen Raptor Lake won’t be much of a challenge for AMD. The Ryzen 7000 series will feature Ryzen 5 7600X, Ryzen 7 7700X, Ryzen 7 7800X, Ryzen 9 7900X, and Ryzen 9 7950X.
Here is a list of all the processors with their specifications and expected prices:
Model | Cores / Threads | Freq. Max | Cache | TDP | Price |
Ryzen 9 7950X | 16/32 | 5.50GHz | 80MB (64+16) | 105-170W | $699 |
Ryzen 9 7900X | 12/24 | 5.40GHz | 76MB (64+12) | 105-170W | $599 |
