- New Leaks Shows AMD Ryzen 5 3500X And Ryzen 5 3500 CPUs Specs 6 Cores & 6 Threads For Budget PCs
- AMD Ryzen 5 3500X And Ryzen 5 3500 CPUs Specs
We will be seeing more new AMD budget options in their Ryzen 3000 CPU series with the release of Ryzen 5 3500X and Ryzen 5 3500. Both processors have their specifications and expected prices revealed by Thai media outlet, Extreme IT and looks like Intel’s sub $150 US 9th Gen processors will be getting a new rival on its neck.
AMD Ryzen 5 3500X and Ryzen 5 3500 6 Core Budget CPUs Detailed Targeting The Sub-$150 US Market To Rule Out The Core i5-9400F
Obviously the Intel Core i5-9400F is a very well known processor for budget PCs with its stellar pricing of $139.99 US. The processor offers 6 cores and a boost clock of up to 4.1 GHz. However, AMD would soon have their own answer to the Core i5-9400F in the form of the Ryzen 3500 series processors.
AMD is gearing up two variants for the sub-$150 US market, the Ryzen 5 3500X & the Ryzen 5 3500. Both processors feature 6 cores and 6 threads which means that there won’t be multi-threading support on either chip, these would be the first Ryzen 3000 parts with no multi-threading support.

We are looking at a base clock of 3.6 GHz and a boost clock of 4.1 GHz on the AMD Ryzen 5 3500X. The processor features 32 MB of cache, a 65W TDP and a price close to $150 US. It is highly liked that AMD would choose a $149.99 US price for this specific chip. As posted by BullsLab, the chip comes with 24 PCIe Gen 4 lanes, support for 3200 MHz memory and we also get to take a look at some performance benchmarks where the chip is highly competitive versus the Core i5-9400F.
The 32 MB Game Cache is also said to deliver much better latencies in a wide variety of esports titles so that is something to consider for gamers on a budget when having to select between an AM4 and the LGA 1151 platforms.
The Ryzen 5 3500, on the other hand, has pretty much the same specifications and even the same clock speeds of 3.6 GHz base and 4.1 GHz boost. The difference is that it features 16 MB of cache versus 32 MB on the Ryzen 5 3600X.
