Key features include Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT), Precision Boost, and XFR for dynamic performance scaling. With a range of series (Ryzen 3, 5, 7, and 9), they cater to different user needs and budgets. Each new generation brings improvements in efficiency, IPC, and support for faster memory and PCIe standards, making Ryzen a competitive and versatile choice.
