Zen 4 Raphael CPU PCs

AMD Zen 4 Raphael (6th Gen)

— AMD Ryzen 7000 processors based on the Zen 4 architecture. First introduced in Fall 2022.

The CPU dies are manufactured for the Raphael family by TSMC using an advanced 5nm process technology. The main architectural changes in Zen 4 are related to changing the behavior of the pipeline front, optimizing load / store blocks, and increasing the L2 cache. The architecture is tailored for DDR5 RAM and PCI-E 5.0 bus support. Raphael processors will need an AM5 socket motherboard with power consumption limit increased to 230W.
