 Come, know the cast and series of AMD Ryzen processors! 



In 2017 and before, the PC industry for the chip sector is less competitive. The reason for this is that at the time Intel arguably dominated the market. Almost all of Intel's processor lines are superior to its competitor, AMD. In fact, AMD processors at that time named Sempron, Turion, Athlon, and Phenom have a slightly lower market share than their competitors, Intel's brand of processors. Despite the fact that the price is cheap, many people still make the products of this California company as the second choice. The reason is nothing more than because AMD is considered a waste of energy, heats up quickly, and works slowly when high temperatures cannot be overcome. All these issues have finally been resolved since AMD released a new microarchitecture called Zen.

This microarchitecture is behind the appearance of the Ryzen processor line in 2017. From there, AMD can slowly steal the show and win over consumers. Computer magazine PC Mag has already included seven AMD manufacturers in the top ten categories in 2020. This is also a time of change for AMD, which has fallen in the high-end market with its FX line. Thanks to Ryzen, AMD has gained public recognition by gaining a 36.6% market share worldwide in the fourth quarter of 2020. Until 2023, AMD Ryzen has reached the seventh generation with the AMD Ryzen 7000 series.

For those of you who do not know exactly what the AMD Ryzen brand of processors are, this time Caris Signal will try to explain them one by one. However, before going there, it is good to understand the naming structure of AMD Ryzen processors.


Understanding AMD Ryzen Processor Naming 

The name added to the product must have a meaning, not just a script. The same thing with AMD's name given to Ryzen processors. Currently, AMD Ryzen has four models, including Ryzen 3, Ryzen 5, Ryzen 7, Ryzen 9, and Ryzen Threadripper. Before explaining the process to the class, Caris Signal invites you to reveal the four numbers plus the letter that usually follows the name of the AMD Ryzen processor. To make it easier, let's refer to the processor, for example the Ryzen 7 3750H. First, the number 3 means that the processor is the third generation of Ryzen and uses the Zen 2 microarchitecture (12 nm). If the number in front is 1, then the processor is the first generation with Zen microarchitecture (14 nm). Meanwhile, if the first number is 2, then the processor is the second generation with Zen + microarchitecture (12nm).

 

Still, the numbers on the front don't always mean the same thing as generations. Of course, AMD has also given number 4 to the third generation Ryzen processor. So the third generation of Ryzen uses the 3 prefix and some use the 4 prefix. The latest, the fourth generation, starts with the prefix 5. The fourth processor supports the Zen 3 (7nm) processor. Second, the number 7 on the 3750H indicates the level of performance in its class. The higher the number, the higher the performance. AMD generally uses numbers 7 and 8 for enthusiast levels, and 4, 5 and 6 for high performance levels.

 

Third, the 5 and 0 numbers of the 3750H are used to emphasize its position as a high-performance manufacturer. However, the third and fourth numbers can also be used to differentiate it from other species of the same species and generation. For example, to distinguish which cores/strings have 

 

Fourth, the cover letters H and 3750H indicate a high performance configuration for a laptop. Besides H, the letters AMD uses are X, G, GE, T, and U. The letter X is used for high-performance computers. G stands for desktop CPU which is the title of APU combined with GPU. GE stands for APU for Low-End Desktop Computers. Finally, U means that the processor is an APU for a standard laptop computer which is usually very powerful.
