It appears that evidently AMD is making ready to launch some new budget-friendly CPUs which is able to come from the final technology of Ryzen processors – in different phrases, Ryzen 5000 (not the present Ryzen 7000 or Zen 4 vary).
These can be barely quicker ‘XT’ spins on present Ryzen 5000 fashions, and the existence of Ryzen 5000XT chips was highlighted by well-known leaker HXL on X (previously Twitter).

The picture within the above tweet comes from a presentation in China and clearly reveals AMD’s intent to ‘assault each worth level’ with Ryzen 5000XT fashions being a part of that technique. (Alongside Ryzen 8700F and 8400F silicon, too).
The XT spins on CPUs had been beforehand seen with the Ryzen 3000 vary, 4 years in the past now. For instance, AMD launched the Ryzen 3800XT to go alongside the Ryzen 3800X, bumping up the ability utilization to squeeze out an additional 200MHz of increase pace with the XT model.
Presumably the plan with Ryzen 5000 can be related, bumping up clocks and TDP to get barely quicker variants (100-200MHz) of fashionable present CPUs from the last-gen Zen 3 vary.
Evaluation: A laudable stage of help for AM4
Is there a catch right here? Effectively, maybe the suggestion from HXL that these may very well be processors for the Chinese language market solely. After all, we don’t know whether or not that’s the case, and whereas the presentation was in China, earlier Ryzen 3000XT fashions had been launched within the US and elsewhere globally – so we’d hope the identical state of affairs will apply right here.
In that case, these may very well be some compelling wallet-friendly chips providing barely higher efficiency than present fashions. It’s additionally commendable to see AMD nonetheless supporting its AM4 last-gen chipset with recent CPU fashions, and that bodes effectively for continued help of current-gen AM5 motherboards into the longer term. (One thing Crew Pink has already made optimistic noises about, in the event you recall).
We shouldn’t get too excited a couple of single leaked presentation slide, in fact, however there’s a great deal of promise right here for these mulling a price range PC construct – or improve – sooner or later, who can be trying to find a value-for-money engine to sit down in an AM4 motherboard.
