Whatever AMD had been planning to say about its upcoming batch of AM4 processors just got a lot less interesting, as many of their key details, including specifications and pricing, have been leaked by a source with VideoCardz. According to Disclouzen, AMD will be launching seven new Ryzen chips in the coming weeks, including the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, an updated CPU with fancy 3D stacking tech that will cost $449 just like its standard sibling (on sale now for $349 at select retailers). It will launch on April 20.

- Furthermore, we learn more details about Ryzen 7 5700X, the ‘affordable’ 65W 8-core CPU supposedly launching at 299 USD. This CPU has a base clock of 3.4 GHz, which is 400 MHz lower than 5800X. However, the boost clock will be just 100 MHz lower.
- AMD is also launching 6-core Ryzen 5 CPUs: 5600 and 5500. Contrary to previous report, both SKUs supposedly have SMT enabled (so they have 12 threads). There is a small difference in clock speeds though: the 5600 has 3.5/4.4 GHz clocks whereas the 5500 comes with 3.6 and 4.2 GHz frequencies for base and boost respectively.
- AMD will be launching as many as three Ryzen 4000 SKUs: 4600G, 4500 and 4100, these are entry-level CPUs to be priced under 154 USD. The Ryzen 5 4500 is expected to cost 129 USD whereas the cheapest Ryzen 3 4100 is expected to cost 99 USD. Those are most likely the Renoir-X parts with the iGPU disabled.
