The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X poses for the cameras with the new socket AM5



It has appeared in anandtech forums which seems to be first photo of an AMD Ryzen 7 7700X.

In the image you can clearly see an AMD Ryzen 7 7700X processor placed in its AM5 socket. The design of the IHS is striking, which instead of covering the entire upper part of the PCB, leaves several holes on the edge, 8 in total, and would be soldered directly to the chip through its central part, confirming the information that had already transpired. .

It also changes the anchoring system with respect to the socket AM4, We must not forget that the AMD Ryzen 7000 processors will arrive with a new LGA format with 1718 pins, so instead of having the pins in the processor itself as was traditional in past generations of AMD CPUs, now the pins will go in the socket, hence the anchoring system is similar to that of Intel sockets.
