AMD explains that the Ryzen 9000X only has 65W TDP because Zen 5 is more efficient

amd has presented during this COMPUTEX 2024 the new processors Ryzen 9000 seriesprocessors that arrive with new Zen 5 cores. These processors have been presented with lower TDP from the previous series, 65W of the new 9000 versus the 105W of the 7000, a difference that AMD has explained in an interview with Tom’s Hardware. The reason is very simple, the Zen 5 cores need less energy to operate, also achieving significant energy savings.

Thanks to this it has been achieved reduce this TDP from 105 W to 65 W of this new series, in the references that have 8 and 6 cores. This TDP had previously been used for processors AMD that did not end in Xbut now this lower consumption can also be applied to the without having to increase the heat or energy consumed by the CPU. Even these Ryzen 9000 Series with 8 and 6 cores have a highest clock frequency than equivalent models in the 7000 series.

Even the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X, which has a consumption of 120 W, has reduced your TDP Compared to the equivalent of the previous generation, the Ryzen 9 7900X has a TDP of 170 W. We will wait for first performance testswhich we assume will be carried out prior to the launch of these CPUs in the month of July, to know How do they perform despite this reduction in consumption?.
