Rumor: AMD is working on Ryzen 9 5900 and Ryzen 7 5800 CPUs for OEMs

AMD appears to be working on Ryzen 9 5900 and Ryzen 7 5800 CPUs. Those chips will receive twelve and eight cores with simultaneous multithreading respectively and will probably only be available for OEMs. It is not yet known when the CPUs will be introduced.

Information about the two chips was previously published by Twitter user Patrick Schur. This leaker has shared correct information more often in the past. That’s how he named the correct specifications from various Ryzen Embedded V2000 chips. AMD officially announced these chips in November.

Schur previously did not know what the naming of the chips would be. At the time it was also not known whether the chips would be available separately for consumers. Meanwhile momomo_us states, another Twitter user who regularly posts accurate information that it is a Ryzen 9 5900 and Ryzen 7 5800, which will be available exclusively for OEMs for use in pre-built PCs. Schur seems to have this information to endorse.

According to momomo_us, the Ryzen 7 5800 and Ryzen 9 5900 will get eight and 12 cores with smt respectively. Both chips also get a tdp of 65W. Clock speeds are currently unknown, but will likely be lower than the 5800X and 5900X desktop processors. The amount of cache would also remain the same; the 5800 would get 32MB L3 cache. With the 5900, that amount would be 64MB.

AMD already introduced a Ryzen 9 3900 processor last year, which was also only available for OEMs. Those chips offered twelve cores with simultaneous multithreading and lower clock speeds than the Ryzen 9 3900X, although the amount of cache memory remained the same. The tdp was also lower, with 65W. At the same time, the company introduced a Ryzen 5 3500X with six cores without SMT, which was also only intended for OEMs.

Further says Patrick Schur a Ryzen 7 5700G and Ryzen 5 5600G. These are desktop APIs with integrated GPU. Those chips would succeed the current Ryzen 4000G APIs and use the Zen 3 architecture. Further details are not yet known, although it is likely that the chips will get eight and six cores respectively, both with smt. It is also not known whether the chips will be available separately. The Ryzen 4000G apus were only available for OEMs at release, although some web shops sold the Pro variants of those chips separately.
