Intel has been the king of processors for a very long time. No direct competitor came close to their level. But, one day, AMD came along and released their lineup of Ryzen processors that not only were widely popularized in the community, but introduced newer things in specifications with models like Ryzen 7 1800 and Ryzen 5 1600X.<\/p>\n
And now AMD has brought its second generation of these processors to the table. Codename “Pinnacle Ridge”, these processors are based on Zen+ architecture and a 12nm form. Four new processors have been introduced namely Ryzen 7 2700X, Ryzen 7 2700 (both 8 core) and Ryzen 5 2600X, Ryzen 5 2600 (both 6 core). With lesser price than first generation, one wonders if the new lineup really is better than the first generation. Well, let’s look at what we have on this.<\/p>\n
Despite being lower in price, these new processors from AMD provide higher clock rates, lesser power consumption and promising performance with gaming and multi threaded tasks. You can look at the detailed specifications of Ryzen 2 here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
