The AMD Ryzen has taken the tech world by storm, and it is said to be likely put out Intel from the game. AMD Ryzen reportedly puts the most performance per dollar at a lower TDP than its rival Intel processors.

Currently, the $499 USD AMD Ryzen 1800X is the top-of-the-line model, and its benchmarking is short of the $1,000 USD i7 6900K. Because of this, there are talks that high-end manufacturers will use the AMD Ryzen on their devices instead of the Intel chipset. For instance, the Apple MacBook Pro 2017 was said to feature the Intel i7, but now there are talks that it would come with the AMD Ryzen.

The Ryzen is a 3.4 GHz+ chip with 8 cores, 4 MB of L2 and 16 MB of L3 cache. It aims to beat Intel's clock speed as it improves by 40 percent per clock cycle compared to AMD's Excavator core. The boost of performance is partly from its 14nm process that fits more transistors on a silicon piece.

The new "Simultaneous Multi-Threading" also helps in handling multiple tasks. New technology includes the Neural Net forecast which speeds processing by forecasting instructions and Smart Prefetch which forecasts the data's future location and store in the cache. AM4 Platform is found in Ryzen including DR4 RAM, PCIe Gen 3, USB 3.1 Gen 2, NVMe and SATA Express.

Intel is set to stop its rival with the launch of the high-end Kaby Lake-X and Skylake-X processors in four Core i7-7000 chips. These powerful CPUs will be released in August 2017 and all four will be powered by the HEDT X299 flagship platform.

AMD Ryzen is prepared to compete with the Intel Kaby Lake in some aspects, and it comes with remarkably impressive hardware. This is a clear threat to Intel's Core architecture legacy. Ryzen is specifically designed for PC gaming while Intel offers several advantages with the Kaby Lake including power efficiency and faster performance.
