Let’s get started with AMD ! it looks like after announcing 6 new Zen 2 based CPU’s and releasing 5 of them, we might get a few extra ! And no I’m not talking about Threadripper! According to an EEC filing made by AMD a couple of days ago, Ryzen 3000 is about to get a few more CPU's in the lineup. A Ryzen 9 3900 non-X, a Ryzen 9 pro 3900, a Ryzen 7 3700 non-X, an Ryzen 7 pro 3700, and a Ryzen 5 pro 3600 and the most interesting in the listing is a Ryzen 5 3500. Now that last one seems to be a brand new CPU and we don't have any information on it besides a TDP of 65W. If AMD keeps the trend it has held since Ryzen first gen, the 500 denomination would indicate a quad-core 8 thread CPU since both the r5 1500x and r5 2500x were quad-cores too.
As for the other CPU’s in the listing, the r9 3900 non-X and the pro version is also surprising with a much lower TDP of 65W compared to the 105W of the 3900X. That’s 12 cores at 65 watts. I mean the six core r5 3600X has a TDP of 95W, that’s insane. Maybe AMD is taking a page off the community which has been consistently underclocking Ryzen CPU’s with great results in the power department. You might have also noticed that this lineup includes 3 pro CPU’s. In case you didn’t know AMD offers a pro line of both desktop and notebook chips and they have a few extra quirks. They offer extra protection like Secure virtualized encryption and memory encryption and other things like higher quality silicon and a 3-year warranty compared to one year for regular Ryzen products.
