AMD Just Launched Ryzen 5 2500X & Ryzen 3 2300X In OEM Systems

AMD made an announcement that it is releasing the new Ryzen 5 2500X and the Ryzen 3 2300X processors, but for now only on OEM systems. The Ryzen 5 2500X is available now in the Acer Nitro N50-100 desktop PC at $900.

AMD also included the unannounced Ryzen 7 2700E and Ryzen 5 2600E in its press release, but did not provide more information. These models are obviously the low power versions of the Ryzen 7 2700X and Ryzen 5 2600X. Ryzen chips come bearing the Zen+ optimizations that include 12nm manufacturing, improved memory and cache latency, higher clock rates, and enhanced multi-core Precision Boost frequencies. AMD also improved boost clock frequencies by 300 MHz for both models, but the Ryzen 3 2300X has the same base frequency while the Ryzen 5 2500X receives a 100MHz bump. Both processors feature the same 65W TDP and support DDR4-2933, which is a step up from the previous-gen’s DDR4-2667 support. AMD also added support for Precision Boost 2 and XFR 2 boost algorithms, along with Precision Boost Overdrive, which is an automated overclocking feature that officially debuted with the second-gen Threadripper processors. However, this feature is widely available on newer X470 motherboards.
