| AMD R7 1700 | 8 | 16 | 3.0 - 3.6 GHz | Core i7 7700 |
| AMD R7 Pro 1700 | 8 | 16 | 3.0 - 3.6 GHz | |
| AMD R5 1600X | 6 | 12 | 3.2 - 3.5 GHz | Core i5 7600K |
| AMD R5 Pro 1600 | 6 | 12 | 3.2 - 3.5 GHz | Core i5 7600 |
| AMD R5 1500 | 6 | 12 | 3.2 - 3.5 GHz | Core i5 7500 |
| AMD R5 Pro 1500 | 6 | 12 | 3.2 - 3.5 GHz | |

| AMD R5 Pro 1400 | 4 | 8 | 3.2 - 3.5 GHz | |
| AMD R5 1300 | 4 | 8 | 3.2 - 3.5 GHz | |
| AMD R5 Pro 1300 | 4 | 8 | 3.2 - 3.5 GHz | |
| AMD R3 1200X | 4 | 4 | 3.1 - 3.4 GHz | |
| AMD R3 Pro 1200 | 4 | 4 | 3.1 - 3.4 GHz | |
| AMD R3 1100 | 4 | 4 | 3.1 - 3.4 GHz | |
| AMD R3 Pro 1100 | 4 | 4 | 3.1 - 3.4 GHz |
We don't know what the Pro versions will offer(probably will have boost clock and the regulars won't), but we do know for certain is that the X versions will feature fully unlocked multiplier for some serious overclocking!
I for one am very happy that the Performance branding is very similar to AMD's Radeon GPU lineup with
R3 = Entry-level
R5 = Mid-Range
R7 = High End
R8 = Enthusiast
A good thins is that there isn't a single Dual-Core in sight!
Could this really be the end of Dual-Core hyper-threaded CPUs?
I certainly hope so, as Intel has been offering i3 CPUs at ridiculous prices for ages
with performance not much above the Pentium class.

Also absent are any Octa(8) and Hexa(6) Core CPUs without Hyper-Threading!
All of the above are just CPUs, without any integrated graphics solutions, so keep in mind that you'll need a Graphics Card to boot the PC, as the Processor silicon does not contain a Graphics Unit!
As far as pricing is concerned, we did not get any information about the R3 and R5 lineup, but
R7 lineup will start at 350Euros/380USD/25000Rs!
R7 lineup will start at 350Euros/380USD/25000Rs!
Top of the line R7 1800X will cost HALF THE PRICE OF Intel i7 6900k
or 599EUR/ 650USD/ 43000Rs
AMD will launch its Ryzen Lineup on March 2, so hopefully Intel domination will come to an end in less than a month's time with gamers and 3D professionals rejoicing at a much needed cut of costs!
