Perhapsmore surprisingis that AMD also used its Computex event to announce a pair of new, old CPUs.

Here’s a top line overview of the new lineup.

AMD Ryzen 9000 announcement

The claimed performance over Intel’s latest Core i9 isn’t hard to believe.

Additionally, AMD has extended its commitment to AM5, pushing the date from 2025 to 2027.

Perhaps more surprising than Ryzen 9000 is the announcement of a pair ofbrand newRyzen 5000 CPUs.

No, that’s not a typo.

AMD Ryzen 9 9950X

The claimed performance over Intel’s latest Core i9 isn’t hard to believe.

The fact AMD is bothering to do this suggests there’s still a big market for it.

At least this way, AMD is keeping its existing fans happy without insisting they empty their wallets entirely.

I like that, good job, AMD.
