AMD is reportedly preparing new Ryzen 7000 desktop processors

In the past, AMD has released both ‘X' and non-X versions of its Ryzen CPUs. AMD has yet to announce non-X Ryzen 7000 series processors, but it seems they are on the way. 

Leaker @momomo_us posted a simple tweet about the rumoured Ryzen 7 7700 CPU. As per the vague message, the upcoming processor will pack eight cores. However, there was no mention of the chip featuring SMT, meaning it could have eight or sixteen threads. Moreover, the message suggests it will come in a 65W TDP, which makes sense considering what we've seen in previous non-X chips.

Although the leaker didn't mention any other Ryzen 7000 non-X chip, AMD is likely planning more SKUs. Our guess is that we'll see a Ryzen 5 7500 and a Ryzen 5 7600.

Besides the non-X chips, AMD is also expected to launch other Ryzen 7000 processors for desktops. We're talking about the Ryzen 7000X3D, rumoured to be announced during CES 2023 (January 5-8th). If we get lucky, AMD may introduce the non-X CPUs alongside the X3D ones.

KitGuru says: With Intel 13th Gen Core chips now available, AMD has to respond in some way. One way is to reduce the price of the platform, making motherboards and processors cheaper. The other is launching more processors to close pricing gaps and offer worthy alternatives to Intel chips at their price point.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
