AMD’s Ryzen CPUs reviews are rumoured to go live on February 28th
This date coincides with the start of GDC, which is a great platform for which AMD can launch their new CPU archtecture. It is also rumoured that AMD Ryzen and AM4 motherboards will go on sale starting on March 2nd, though some have suggested that some higher-end SKUs will be available before then.Â
| AMD Ryzen CPU | Core Count | Thread Count | Base Freq | Boost Clock Speed | TDP |
| R7 1800X | 8 | 16 | 3.6GHz | 4.0GHz | 95+W |
| R7 1800 | 8 | 16 | – | Â – | 95W |
| R7 1700X | 8 | 16 | 3.4GHz | 3.8GHz | 95+W |
| R7 1700 | 8 | 16 | 3.0GHz | 3.7GHz | 65W |
| R5 1600X | 6 | 12 | 3.3GHz | 3.7GHz | 95+W |
| R5 1500 | 6 | 12 | 3.2GHz | 3.4GHz | 65W |
| R5 1400X | 4 | 8 | 3.5GHz | 3.9GHz | 65W |
| R5 1300 | 4 | 8 | 3.3GHz | 3.6GHz | 65W |
| R3 1200X | 4 | 4 | 3.4GHz | 3.8GHz | 65W |
| R3 1100 | 4 | 4 | 3.2GHz | 3.5GHz | 65W |

One thing that also must be remembered is that all of AMD’s Ryzen SKUs are overclockable, giving enthusiasts a great opportunity to achieve great performance/$ out of their Ryzen CPUs, especially when using lower-end CPUs.Â
If Ryzen’s rumoured pricing is true, Intel will likely be forced to reconsider the pricing of their Kaby Lake CPU lineup, as it seems like AMD will greatly upset the status-Quo when it comes to price/performance.  Â

You can join the discussion on AMD’s Ryzen CPU launch on the OC3D Forums. Â
