We check out AMD's new non-X Ryzen 7 7700 series 8-core processor, and it impressed us far more than the original X model. The newer version's performance is superior, and its thermal design power (TDP) rating is significantly more reasonable at 65W. This implies lower temperatures while still reaping the benefits of the Ryzen 7000 architecture.
