AMD Preps New Ryzen 2000-Series CPUs: 45W Ryzen 7 2700E & Ryzen 5 2600E
 

AMD is gearing up to release four new Ryzen 2000-series processors based on a listing in ASRock’s CPU compatibility chart. The new Ryzen 5 2600E and Ryzen 7 2700E products feature a reduced TDP and are aimed at SFF and fanless systems, whereas the Ryzen 3 2300X, as well as the Ryzen 5 2500X parts, are designed for enthusiasts as well as overclockers on a budget.

The energy efficient Ryzen 5 2600E and the Ryzen 7 2700E will be AMD’s first Ryzen CPUs featuring a 45 W default TDP. Previously AMD has offered various Ryzen chips with configurable 45 – 65 W TDP that required system builders to activate the former profile for low power PCs, which in some cases could mean unpredictable performance. By contrast, the new products guarantee 2.8 – 3.1 GHz frequencies at 45 W, if ASRock’s CPU compatibility chart for the AB350M Pro4 motherboard is to be believed.
