AMD hasn't indicated when the Ryzen 3 or GE-Series Cezanne chips will come to market.ĪMD Ryzen 5000 GE-Series 35W Cezanne APUs CPU It also has yet to release the GE-series chips listed in the table below. That's largely because AMD has decided not to include the 65W Ryzen 3 5300G, which it ships into the OEM market, in this round of chip releases. The 3600 isn't competitive with Intel's Rocket Lake Core i5-11600K or -11400, leaving Intel plenty of room to roam uncontested in the budget market (as you can see in our Core i5-11400 review).īased on suggested pricing, the 5600G contends with the Core i5-11600K and doesn't do much to address the current value budget champ, the Intel Core i5-11400.
AMD's Ryis the only real relevant contender in this price range, and it launched two years ago with the Zen 2 architecture. The 5600G slots in at $259 to plug the gap between the $299 Ryzen 5 5600X and, well, the remainder of AMD's sub-$299 product stack. The 65W six-core 12-thread Ryzen 5 5600G comes with a 3.9 GHz base, 4.4 GHz boost, and seven Radeon Vega CUs that operate at 1.9 GHz. That big gap left Intel's Core i7-11700K with plenty of room to operate, but AMD says the new 5700G will plug that gap with CPU performance that slots in perfectly between the other Ryzen 5000 parts, not to mention the strengths borne of the integrated Vega graphics engine. The Ryzen 7 5700G addresses the ~$350 price point to plug the sizeable gap between the $449 Ryzen 9 5800X and $299 Ryzen 5 5600X. That is if AMD can keep them in stock, of course. Given the ongoing graphics card shortages, these newly revamped APUs are a welcome sight for the gaming market and serve as AMD's "non-X" chips that traditionally offer more attractive price points at a given core count. Now AMD's retort comes as retail availability of a few of the Cezanne chips, though it's noteworthy the company is still holding back several of its lower-end models from the retail market. Unfortunately for AMD, Intel's Rocket Lake blasted in a few months ago and plugged those gaps. The company's first salvo of Ryzen 5000 processors delivered a stunning blow to Intel as it took the unequivocal lead in desktop PCs, but AMD's pivot to premium pricing left it exposed with two massive gaps in its product stack. The Cezanne APUs, which come with Zen 3 execution cores paired with the Radeon Vega graphics engine, feel like they're a bit late to retail. In fact, AMD actually brought the very chips it's announcing today to OEM systems a few months ago, meaning we already know most of the details about the silicon.

AMD did bring a refresh of those chips to market as the oft-maligned Ryzen Pro "Renoir" series, but in a disappointment to enthusiasts, those chips were destined for professional users and thus not available at retail. The new Cezanne chips mark the first new APUs for desktop PCs that you'll be able to buy at retail since AMD launched the Zen+ "Picasso" models back in 2019. The $359 Ryzen 7 5700G and $259 Ryzen 5 5600G APU, both of which come to market August 5, 2021, will plug two glaring gaps in the company's Ryzen 5000 product stack that currently leads our list of Best CPUs.
