AMD has finally priced its new Ryzen 9000 desktop CPUs, and they’re less expensive than Ryzen 7000 counterparts. AMD’s new CPUs arrive from August 8th onwards.
AMD has finally revealed the launch prices for its new range of Ryzen 9000 desktop CPUs, and it’s pricing them slightly lower than the Ryzen 7000 launch prices. The flagship Ryzen 9 9950X with 16 cores will be priced at $649, which is $50 less than the $699 Ryzen 9 7950X that launched nearly two years ago. The rest of the lineup are priced between $20 and $50 less than equivalent Ryzen 7000 CPUs.
AMD is promising around a 16 percent instructions per cycle uplift in performance over the previous-generation Ryzen CPUs, with big promises of performance gains in both productivity tasks and gaming. AMD is also launching new X870 and X870E motherboard chipsets for these new Ryzen 9000 series CPUs, but these motherboards won’t be available at launch. Fortunately, these new Ryzen 9000 CPUs work in any existing AM5 motherboards, a socket that AMD has committed to support until at least 2027.
