AMD Announces Ryzen 2600(X), 2700(X), X470 Preorder (+Unboxing Preview)

While anything and everything regarding the Zen+ update, aka Ryzen 2000 hasn’t exactly been a secret, today the new processors will become available for pre-order, as well as the new X470 motherboards. In this news item, we present the procs, including confirmed specifications.

It’s been a long wait, but starting next week, April 19th, you’ll be able to receive your new Ryzen processor, the new X470 chipset based motherboards will go live as well. Starting today however you may already pre-order the new gear.

2nd Generation Ryzen (Zen+) in a short overview:

AMD is announcing four processors in this initial release. With some pretty terrific prices, I must add.

  • Ryzen 7 2700X (8c/16t) will get a base clock of 3.7 GHz and may Turbo to 4.3 GHz, priced 329 USD
  • Ryzen 7 2700 (8c/16t) will get a base clock of 3.2 GHz and may Turbo to 4.1 GHz, priced 299 USD
  • Ryzen 5 2600X (6c/12t) will get a base clock of 3.6 GHz and may Turbo to 4.2 GHz, priced 229  USD
  • Ryzen 5 2600 (6c/12t) will get a base clock of 3.4 GHz and may Turbo to 3.9 GHz, priced 199 USD

You are going to notice that the X models have become much cheaper compared to the original Ryzen launch. The difference between a 2700 and 2700X for example, is 30 bucks. For that extra dough, you receive a better-binned processor that can run much higher frequencies in its default configuration. The 2700 series will be paired with a Wraith Prism (RGB LED) cooler, which is really funky actually. The 2600 series will get a regular Wraith Spire cooler.

Especially the new X models have exceptional prices.

 

 

X470 Chipset

Staring today pre-order for X470 chipset based motherboards also will go live. While the processors will run just fine on X370 after a mandatory BIOS update, X470 motherboards are optimized for the new processors, offering improved and more refined and higher turbos, tweaking as well as offering improved DDR4 memory ranges. The new X470 platform will also offer AMD StoreMI Technology. A caching feature that can speed up your HDD/SSD experience, free of charge with the new motherboards.

Pre-orders started worldwide today on April 13th at 15:00 CET, ahead of the April 19 launch.

We've been testing the new platform for a while now. Please find below some extra photos of what we have in store, our in-depth performance reviews will go live next week April 19th as well. Below some of the X470 motherboards we have in the house, and in the thumbnails, you can find more of a photo presentation of the kit and gear we are testing with and are readying for review.
