AMD 'Zen' Ryzen Processor News & Update: Leaked Three Classes & Windows 7 Support

Check this out! AMD "Zen" or Ryzen is ready now to take down Intel from its top spot position. Accordingly, the processor shows great promise to be better than Intel's latest Kaby Lake goodies. Here are the latest updates to know about the facts why this highly-anticipated hardware could be better than the one's available in the market today.

According to Digital Trends, AMD "Zen" or Ryzen processors are heavily expected to come out this March. Taking note, everyone is expecting to see a series of different versions, thus a recent information leak detailed that it might really have three desktop classes after all.

The AMD Ryzen lineup will supposedly be a three part series of R7, R5, AND R3 models. Each of them still has other variants pertaining to its different performances.

With R7 models, it will have 5 with eight cores and 16 threads which some will work at 3.06GHz. The R5 models will be working on the middle level with six cores and 12 threads though they have higher GHz speed at 3.2/3.5. Nonetheless, R3 models are also something to look forward with its four cores and 4/8 threads that have nearly the same Ghz with R5s.

On the other hand, the same report also highlights the AMD "Zen" varieties with "X" and "Pro" names on them. They supposedly differ according to their target environments such as business, game, and others.

PC Mag also has something for the fans of AMD Ryzen! In its report, Windows 7 is given limelight because the upcoming processor will apparently power it as well. This operating system is already phased out and it's uncommon for new hardware to still support it.

Lastly, AMD "Zen" Ryzen support on the OS will surely be another feature people will rave about. It will definitely be a hit for many Windows 7 users still. In all, this processor really has it all for everyone!
