AMD’s Ryzen 9000 series, featuring the Zen 5 architecture, has added “F” models without integrated graphics. American retailer Shop BLT has released the Ryzen 5 9500F and Ryzen 7 9700F processors, along with their list prices.
AMD’s new processors are coming soon
The Ryzen 7 9700F is considered a lower-performance version of the Ryzen 7 9700X, with 8 cores and 16 threads. The processor’s base frequency is set at 3.8 GHz. Its overclock frequency hasn’t been officially announced, but it’s expected to be lower than the 9700X.
The processor, notable for its 65W TDP, prioritizes energy efficiency. Despite its listed price of $294, the market expects it to cost between $250 and $280.
The Ryzen 5 9500F, on the other hand, offers 6 cores and 12 threads. This processor, with a base frequency of 3.8 GHz, can reach up to 5.0 GHz. This value was previously confirmed in Geekbench tests. With 38 MB of cache and a TDP of 65W, it’s similar to the Ryzen 5 9600X.
However, its list price of $217 seems higher than the 9600X, which sells for under $200. Experts expect this model to launch in the $179-199 range. AMD is expected to announce the processors’ official release date and final technical details.
