The architectural improvements are so significant that AMD truly believes it has the fastest gaming CPU in the world right now, although the numbers obviously fluctuate slightly depending on what games you’re playing and what resolutions. These claims have, of course, not been verified by a third party, although with the chip’s release on November 5th we will undoubtedly receive a flurry of reviews confirming one way or another.
What AMD released this morning is Australian pricing. AMDs not only confirmed that Australians and New Zealanders will receive the Ryzen 5950X, 5900X, 5800X and 5600X on the same day as the rest of the world, they also revealed the local markup.
AMD Ryzen 5950X, 5900X, 5800X, 5600X prices and release date
| MODEL | Cores / threads | TDP | BOOST / BASE FREQ. (GHz) | TOTAL CACHE | COOLER | PRICE | AUSTRALIAN APPROVAL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMD Ryzen 9 5950X | 16C / 32T | 105W | Up to 4.9 / 3.4 | 72 MB | N / A | $ 1249 | 5. November 2020 |
| AMD Ryzen 9 5900X | 12C / 24T | 105W | Up to 4.8 / 3.7 | 70 MB | N / A | $ 859 | 5. November 2020 |
| AMD Ryzen 7 5800X | 8C / 16T | 105W | Up to 4.7 / 3.8 | 36 MB | N / A | $ 699 | 5. November 2020 |
| AMD Ryzen 5 5600X | 6C / 12T | 65W | Up to 4.6 / 3.7 | 35 MB | Wraith Stealth | 469 $ | 5. November 2020 |
Prices assume the Ryzen 5900X will cost around $ 120 more than the Ryzen 9 3900XT and around $ 140 more than the Ryzen 9 3950X. If it’s the low-end CPUs you want, or you’re building a pure gaming rig, the 5800X costs $ 100 more than the 3800XT, while the 5600X costs about $ 80 more than the 3600XT he replaces.
Note that if you have an existing motherboard that supports the Ryzen 3000 series, you can use any of the Ryzen 5000 chips after applying a BIOS update. (These are expected to be available from launch and in the months ahead, depending on your motherboard and manufacturer.)
If you are in New Zealand, here are the prices. As usual, our kiwi friends have a much higher markup that we should always remember when complaining about the Australian tax.
- Ryzen 9 5950X: 1389 NZD
- Ryzen 9 5900X: 959 NZD
- Ryzen 7 5800X: $ 779 NZD
- Ryzen 5 5600X: $ 529 NZD
As a global launch, New Zealanders will receive the Ryzen 5000 series on the same day.
AMD just has to announce where the Radeon RX 6000 series fits into all of that – and when they will go on sale. A full briefing on the RX 6000 GPUs begins 2:00 a.m. AEST October 29th Local time with details on AMD website. I look forward to hearing how AMD approaches ray tracing on PC, how this will be implemented in the future, and how AMD cards work with the multitude of games that existing ray tracing games support.
