In Europe, it’s a similar story but much more dramatic. The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X sells for twenty-four percent less than the launch. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X and Ryzen 5 7600X are slightly less reduced, with the former at twenty-two percent lower and the latter with a twenty percent difference in cost. The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X receives a minor reduction, but still entirely worth it, at a total of eighteen percent less than it was at launch. The cost is much higher than the American dollar on the four models. With Intel’s launch only half a month away, it is rumored that early pricing for the Raptor Lake line will continue its trend of offering low-cost options for consumers. For example, the Intel Gen Core i5-12400 was initially released around $200, and the F variation was twenty to thirty dollars less upon launch in the US. Anticipated pricing for the new i5-13400F processor will be near the same low pricing as its predecessor, especially when the i5-12600K is currently between $240 to $250. CES 2023 will begin on January 3, 2023, for media outlets and large presentations, while the entire event will be on January 5, 2023, with an expected 1,300 companies in attendance.
