Will AMD ever release a Ryzen 7 2800X? Well, never say never, but don't hold your breath, either. AMD senior vice president Jim Anderson explained why AMD chose not to include a Ryzen 7 2800X in its second generation Ryzen launch, even though the first generation of Ryzen chips include a Ryzen 7 1800X.

"We felt like, with the 2700X and 2700 at the performance and price points, we had that space covered," Anderson said, according to DSOGaming. "We just felt that with those two SKUs we had it sufficiently covered where we wanted to position the product."
