AMD rumoured to launch up to ten new Ryzen chips in April

It looks like we will get even more Ryzen processors in Q2 than we thought. At first, we were only expecting the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. Then, some reports claimed we would also get three other Ryzen 5000 CPUs and three Ryzen 4000 APUs. Now, the latest rumours point to three other chips: the Ryzen 7 5700, Ryzen 3 5100 and Ryzen 7 4700.

This information was first reported by Wccftech, which claims that the AMD Ryzen 5700X/5600/5500/4600G/4500/4100 will be the first to release on April 4th. Shortly after, on April 20th, AMD will reportedly launch the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. As for the three newly found SKUs, the report claims they will come during April.

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 will be a Zen3 Cezanne-based chip with 8x cores, 16x threads and 24MB of L2+L3 cache. Its TDP is likely set at 65W, and the lack of the “G” in the naming suggests it won't feature an iGPU. Price is still unknown, but considering the Ryzen 7 5700G (same specs but with an iGPU) pricing and the reported Ryzen 7 5700X MSRP, it should be between $250 and $290.

Moving on to the Zen3 Cezanne-based Ryzen 3 5100, specifications of this 4x core and 8x thread CPU are still scarce. Rumours claim it will come with 6MB of L2+L3 cache, but nothing else is known besides that. However, we expect also to feature a 65W TDP. Price should hover around the $120 mark.

Lastly, the Ryzen 7 4700 is an 8C/16T CPU based on Zen2 Renoir architecture, featuring 20MB of L2+L3 cache and a 65W TDP. The base clock is rumoured to be set at 3.6GHz, boosting up to 4.4GHz as needed. The MSRP should not exceed the $200 mark.

KitGuru says: If all of these SKUs are indeed on the way, then the Ryzen 5000 line-up is going to start looking very messy and confusing, as three different architectures will be in use across different SKUs.
