AMD® Ryzen™ 7 9700F

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F is a desktop processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, built on the Zen 5 architecture (4 nm process). It launched in Sep 2025. Clocks run from 3.8 GHz base to 5.5 GHz boost. A 32-MB L3 cache backs the cores (5.1 MB per core). It addresses DDR5 memory up to 256 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the AM5 socket and exposes PCIe 5.0 (28 lanes). Rated TDP is 65 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, AVX-VNNI, AMD-V (Hardware Virtualization), AMD SEV.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F scores 4,703 in single-core performance and 37,024 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 13,196 for overall performance, 30,650 for productivity performance, 28,829 for creator performance, 37,950 for engineering performance and 23,365 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 4,628 per core, 2,314 per thread and 570 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,637. Its performance index is 164, so its overall performance is 64% above the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the AMD Ryzen 7 9700F scores 120,765 in integer math, 78,069 in floating-point math, 423,745 in compression, 21,535 in cryptography, 2,065 in physics simulation, 33,843 in vector SIMD, 180 in the prime sieve and 46,054 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 105% above in integer math, 70% above in floating-point math, 86% above in compression, 87% above in cryptography, 89% above in physics simulation, 118% above in vector SIMD, 169% above in the prime sieve and 103% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F has 8 physical cores and runs 16 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 3.80 GHz and boosts up to 5.50 GHz.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F is a desktop processor, belongs to the AMD Ryzen 7 family, uses the Zen 5 architecture, carries the codename Granite Ridge and is manufactured on a 4 nm process. It launched in Sep 2025.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F has 640 KB of L1 cache, 8 MB of L2 cache and 32 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 40.6 MB of cache, or 5.08 MB per core. Each core has 1 MB of private L2 cache.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 640 KB, L2 at 8 MB and L3 at 32 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 79% of the cache listed here.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F supports DDR5 memory, addresses up to 256 GB of memory and uses 2 memory channels. It does not support DDR4 and LPDDR memory.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F uses the AM5 socket, supports PCI Express 5.0 and provides up to 28 PCIe lanes.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F has a rated TDP of 65 W.
