AMD plans to release the Ryzen 7 9700F processor with eight cores and no built-in graphics. The company targets mainstream computer builders who want powerful processing without paying for graphics they might not use. Motherboard makers already updated their software to support the new chip. The processor uses Zen 5 architecture and runs at 65 watts of power consumption. AMD expects to price the chip around 250 to 300 dollars.
The Ryzen 7 9700F matches the regular 9700X processor but removes the integrated graphics unit. Computer users who already have dedicated graphics cards can save money with this version. The chip features 16 threads across eight cores with 32 megabytes of cache memory. AMD allows users to overclock the processor for higher performance when needed. The company positions this model against Intel processors at similar price points.
