Why Ryzen was amazing and the haters were all wrong
Citiraj:
The plan as we understood it back in 2017 when Ryzen first burst onto the scene was that those investing in a 300-series AM4 motherboard would be able to upgrade to a 2nd or 3rd generation Ryzen CPU, or any other chip released up until 2020. This remains a big deal and in our opinion platform longevity was part of Ryzen's competitive advantage and success story. We have faced a lot of criticism for recommending AMD, especially in the earlier days, though of course that goes both ways as recent recommendations for Intel Alder Lake CPUs have caught their own blow back, but, we're not here to discuss that today. Therefore it's fair to say at this point, if you bought into Ryzen back in 2017 you made the right choice and I have to admit early on I was a bit skeptical of Ryzen as it didn't exactly burst onto the scene issue free, but many of the bugs did get ironed out and today even using a Ryzen 5000 series processor on a 300-series motherboard is a great experience.

AMD Clarifies Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4" TDP and Power Limits: 170W TDP, 230W PPT
Citiraj:
The mention of "170 W" in one of the slides of AMD's Computex 2022 reveal of the upcoming Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4" desktop processors, caused quite some confusion as to what that figure meant. AMD issued a structured clarification on the matter, laying to rest the terminology associated with it. Apparently, there will be certain SKUs of Socket AM5 processors with TDP of 170W. This would be the same classical definition of TDP that AMD has been consistently using. The package-power tracking (PPT), a figure that translates as power limit for the socket, is 230W.

This does not necessarily mean that there will be a Ryzen 7000-series SKU with 170W TDP. AMD plans to give AM5 a similar life-cycle to AM4, which is now spanning five generations of Ryzen processors, and the 170W TDP and 230W PPT figures only denote design goals for the socket. AMD, in a statement, explained why it needed to make AM5 capable of delivering much higher power than AM4 could—to enable higher CPU core-counts in the future, more on-package hardware, and for new capabilities like power-hungry instruction-sets (think AVX-512). AMD has been calculating PPT as 1.35 times TDP, since the very first generation of Ryzen chips. For a 105W TDP processor, this means 140W PPT, and the same formula continues with Ryzen 7000 series (230W is 1.35x 170W).
