Amd Ryzen could hit $ 720

The first results of the AMD Ryzen processors have been very encouraging with a performance very similar to their Intel equivalents, with this the users have been dreaming of a nice price war that will bring down the current price of CPUs in a very important way.

AMD Ryzen would be more expensive than expected by many

The Chinese portal Chiphell is usually one of the first to send rumors about the most important launches and with a significant percentage of hits. This portal says that the first Ryzen processors to arrive will be the 8-core and 16-thread models, something that was already to be expected. The thing that our readers will least like is that it talks about prices between 580 and 720 dollars, making a direct conversion from Chinese yuan to dollars. This means that in the European market the top of the range Ryzen could go above 800 euros once we add taxes such as VAT.

These first Ryzen chips would arrive at the end of February or early March, while the simpler models with fewer cores could take up to four more months to arrive, the quad-core models would cost $ 150-200.

Of course it's all rumors and for now AMD has said absolutely nothing about Ryzen's pricing and arrival date.
