5 years of Ryzen: PCGH congratulates AMD - Geek
Jim Keller has taken care of AMD for successes through the Zen architecture. He was the one who created this CPU architecture from scratch. The goal was then to finally have an answer to Intel's high-priced high-end processors. When the first eight-core named AMD Ryzen 7 1800x finally appeared, that was like a bang, because suddenly you could buy many cores for relatively little money. Although the first variants Zen (Ryzen 1000) and Zen + (Ryzen 2000) disappeared at a low single-core performance, which was eliminated with Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) in the summer of 2019 but at the latest. Since then, AMD processors have been part of the popular mainstream and at the latest Zen 3 (Ryzen 5000) plays at the top - Who would have thought that after the miserable bulldozer architecture?
One can also recognize the development of AMD at the stock price: For the launch of Zen in March 2017, the value of the stock was just under 15 US dollars and a first increase was achieved by AMD only a year later. However, the value of around 30 US dollars did not last long, first to the launch of Zen 2 in the summer of 2019, one reached 55 US dollars in order to finally explode with Zen 3. Currently, the value is around 130 US dollars - an increase of 780 percent in just five years! Of course, the Ryzen processors do not alone, but we can stick that AMD has made a very good job with Ryzen. We are waiting for the year number 6, because the end of the year is already zen 4 on the mat.
We celebrate with AMD 5 years of Ryzen and have re-tested Just four of the most popular eight-cucore. Based on architecture and its idiosy, we would like to show you the development of AMD Zen from 2017 to this day. A corresponding special with numerous benchmarks and analyzes can be found in the new PCGH 04/2022. In the video we go to some of the achievements, indulge in memories and give buying tips for current processors.
