AMD plans to release another processor for its Ryzen 7000 computer chip family. The company will add the Ryzen 5 7400 model that includes built-in graphics capabilities. This processor serves as a companion to the Ryzen 5 7400F that AMD launched earlier this year without graphics features. Technology watchers discovered shipping records that reveal the new chip's development. The graphics addition helps computer users diagnose system problems more easily.
The Ryzen 5 7400 carries the same power requirements as its graphics-free counterpart at 65 watts. AMD designed the processor with six computing cores and twelve processing threads for multitasking. The chip runs at 3.7 gigahertz during normal use and speeds up to 4.7 gigahertz when needed. Engineers built the processor using Zen 4 technology that works with AM5 motherboard connections. The chip also contains 32 megabytes of cache memory for faster data access.
Computer buyers should expect to pay more for the graphics-equipped version than the basic model. AMD sold the Ryzen 5 7400F for about $115 in Chinese markets earlier this year. Industry experts predict the new processor will cost between $125 and $135 in North American and European stores. This pricing makes the chip one of the most affordable options for people wanting AMD's newest platform technology. The company has not announced when stores will start selling the processor.
