About AMD Ryzen 7 2700E

The AMD Ryzen 7 2700E chip is built on the 12 nm Zen+ architecture, officially part of the Pinnacle Ridge family. It utilizes the AM4 socket and carries the Ryzen 7 generation label, delivering eight cores and sixteen threads for solid multi‑tasking performance. With a base clock of 2.80 GHz and a boost up to 4.00 GHz, it balances power and efficiency, staying within a 65 W TDP envelope. The 16 MB of shared L3 cache helps reduce latency in demanding workloads. Released on September 19 2018, this processor targets users who want a low‑power yet capable desktop solution.

Benchmark results show the AMD Ryzen 7 2700E chip scoring 12,458 points in Cinebench R23 multi‑core, demonstrating respectable threading capability for its class. In the single‑core test, it reaches 1,758 points, indicating decent per‑core speed despite its modest base frequency. Older Cinebench suites still reflect strong performance, with 5,232 points in R20 multi‑core and 738 points in R20 single‑core. Even the legacy R15 multi‑core score of 1,255 points confirms its versatility across software generations. These numbers place the processor comfortably within the mid‑range performance tier.

Targeted at budget‑conscious builders and small‑form‑factor PCs, the Ryzen 7 2700E fits well in mainstream gaming rigs, home‑office workstations, and HTPCs. Pair it with a B450 or X470 motherboard to fully exploit the AM4 platform while keeping costs low. A 3200 MHz DDR4 kit complements the chip’s memory controller, and a modest air cooler is sufficient given the 65 W TDP. For graphics, a mid‑range GPU such as the RTX 3060 provides balanced performance without bottlenecking the CPU. This combination delivers a smooth experience for 1080p gaming, content creation, and everyday multitasking.
