Already the expected new generation of AMD processors is only a few weeks away, the Ryzen 7000, hit the market. It is expected to do so a few weeks before the debut of Intel’s Raptor Lake. As we’ve been expecting for a few months now, we’re heading for a very interesting fall for people thinking about building or upgrading their PC, because along with these new chips are expected the arrival of new generations of GPUs from AMD and NVIDIA, perhaps the expected global debut of Intel in this market and for those not looking for the latest, likely price drops on the previous generation component.
Thanks to both information provided by manufacturers and leaksWe already have enough information. about new chips to come. In the case of the Ryzen 7000, here’s what we know about the first four integrated devices:

So even in the absence of performance tests and feedback On the side of the early adopters who will get Ryzen 7000, we already have complete information about the chips. The key now, of course, is to see if ZEN 4 is able to deliver the performance promised by AMD.
Well, it’s actually one of two keys. The second is, of course, the prices at which the Ryzen 7000 will hit the market.. In this regard, there have been rumors for a long time that we can expect slightly lower prices than the previous generation for the eight- and six-core integrated ones, but that the prices for the Ryzen 9 7000 series could be higher. .
Popular leaker (and watcher in this case) Momomo_us posted on tweet prices, we can understand that the preliminaries, but that they put us on the track of what we can expect from the four Ryzen 7000 processors listed in the table. These prices are from Canadian retailer PC-Canada and are therefore in Canadian dollars:
- AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (100-100000514/WOF): 1,158 Canadian dollars (883.10 euros).
- AMD Ryzen 9 7900X (100-100000589/WOF): 798 Canadian dollars (603.98 euros).
- AMD Ryzen 7 7700X (100-100000591/WOF): 631 Canadian dollars (481.20 euros).
- AMD Ryzen 5 7600X (100-100000593/WOF): 435 Canadian dollars (331.73 euros).
When comparing prices with current-generation processors at the same retailer, we see that the Ryzen 9 7950X is C$158 more than the Ryzen 9 5950X. The Ryzen 9 7900X is priced C$13 less than the Ryzen 9 5900X, the Ryzen 7 7700X is priced C$216 more than the Ryzen 7 5700X, and the Ryzen 5 7600X is priced C$15 less than the Ryzen 7 5700X.
However, there are of course two important points that we must not forget. The first and most important is that, as I have already indicated, we must take into account that these are provisional prices, so we must not take them as a law written in stone. And the second one is the one we’re talking about market debut prices versus those of chips that have been on the market for two years and that they are also about to leave the category of the latest generation, an aspect that undoubtedly affects prices.
