AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12‑Core AM5 Retail (WOF)

Description

Overview

The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X is a Zen 4‑based AM5 desktop processor intended for enthusiasts, gamers and creators who need high single‑thread and multi‑thread performance. The retail boxed WOF (Processor‑in‑a‑Box without fan) variant contains the CPU only — no stock cooler is included — so a compatible cooling solution must be supplied separately to reach and sustain peak performance.

Key features

• 12 CPU cores and 24 threads for demanding multitasking and content workloads.
• 4.7GHz base clock with up to 5.6GHz boost clock.
• 64MB L3 cache and 12MB L2 cache.
• Default TDP 170W; liquid cooling or a high‑performance air cooler is recommended.
• Socket: AM5 (check motherboard BIOS compatibility before installation).
• Memory: DDR5 support (up to DDR5‑5200 depending on configuration) across two memory channels, up to 128GB.
• Integrated AMD Radeon™ Graphics (2 graphics cores, 2200MHz) for basic display output.
• 28 PCIe lanes (24 usable) for add‑in cards and NVMe storage (chipset dependent).
• Unlocked multiplier with support for AMD EXPO and Precision Boost technologies.

Because this is the boxed WOF SKU, the package does not include a thermal solution. Confirm BIOS support and cooling compatibility with your chosen AM5 motherboard and memory kit before purchasing or installing.
