AMD has confirmed official pricing for two newly introduced mainstream desktop processors, setting the AM5-based Ryzen 5 7500 at $189 and the AM4-based Ryzen 5 5500F at $99.

Built on Zen 4 architecture, the Ryzen 5 7500 (via Wccftech) features six cores and 12 threads. Base clock speeds are set at 3.7GHz, boosting up to 5.0GHz, paired with 6MB of L2 cache, 32MB of L3 cache, and a 65W TDP. Unlike the existing 7500F model, this standard version includes two integrated RDNA graphics cores running at 2.2GHz to assist with system diagnostics. AMD's $189 price tag lands slightly above current street prices for the “F” SKU, though retail adjustments are expected over time.

For budget-focused AM4 system builders, the $99 Ryzen 5 5500F brings a fresh alternative to the existing lineup. Based on Vermeer silicon rather than the Cezanne APU architecture used in the standard 5500, the chip omits integrated graphics while pushing higher clock speeds. Specifications include six Zen 3 cores, 12 threads, a 3.0GHz base clock, a 4.4GHz boost clock, 3MB of L2 cache, 16MB of L3 cache, and a 65W TDP.

Both releases aim to provide accessible entry and upgrade options for builders balancing overall build costs, which, considering the rising hardware prices, will be very welcome.

KitGuru says: Planning to build a new entry-level AMD PC soon? Will you consider either of these two?

AMD has confirmed the prices of its newly introduced Ryzen 5 7500 "Zen 4" and Ryzen 5 5500F "Zen 3" chips. AMD Continues Its AM5/AM4 Desktop Expansion With Ryzen 5 7500 & Ryzen 5 5500F CPUs A few days ago, AMD unveiled its latest Ryzen Desktop CPUs for the AM4 and AM5 platforms. These include the Ryzen 5 7500 and the Ryzen 5 5500F, both aimed at the mainstream & budget segments. At launch, the pricing information wasn't available, but we have confirmed the SEP (Suggested E-tailer Price) with AMD. As per the information, the Ryzen 5 7500 will cost […]

AMD keeps expanding its older processor families as it adds two new processors to its Zen 3 and Zen 4 lineups. AMD Debuts Ryzen 5 7500 Zen 4 Processor With Integrated Graphics; Introduces a New Zen 3-Based Ryzen 5 5500F Processor Simultaneously A few days ago, we reported that AMD might be preparing a new Zen 4 CPU in the Raphael series, aka Ryzen 7000 desktop CPUs. This is the AMD Ryzen 5 7500, which the company has quietly added to the Zen 4 lineup, as can be seen on the official website. The silent release has confirmed the leaked […]

It looks like AMD hasn't shelved the Ryzen 7000 series just yet. A new report suggests AMD is preparing to launch a standard Ryzen 5 7500 processor for the AM5 socket. The Zen 4 CPU will supposedly sit between the existing Ryzen 5 7500F and 7500X3D, bringing a 65W TDP, integrated graphics, and a bundled boxed cooler.

The leaked specifications shared by Roland Quandt (via VideoCardz) point to a 6‑core, 12‑thread CPU running at a 3.7GHz base clock with up to a 5.0GHz boost. Total cache measures 38MB, combining 32MB of L3 with 6MB of L2. These specifications closely mirror the 7500F, matching its peak clock speed, while the 7500X3D continues to run lower boost clocks due to 3D V‑Cache constraints.

The same report suggests a price of around €230. That would place the standard 7500 well above the tray‑only 7500F, which currently sells for £150/€120/$130, and close to the 7500X3D. The higher price is likely tied to two expected changes, integrated Radeon graphics and the inclusion of a retail boxed cooler instead of OEM‑only packaging.

AMD has not yet officially confirmed the chip or provided a release window.

KitGuru says: A standard Ryzen 5 7500 gives builders a proper boxed entry-level AM5 chip with integrated graphics, though its success will depend heavily on where retail pricing settles.

Team Red isn't done with the Zen 4 series and we might see another processor hitting the shelves soon. AMD is Reportedly Preparing Another 6-Core Budget Zen 4 CPU; Ryzen 5 7500 Expected to Launch With Up To 5.0 GHz Boost Clock It's usual for AMD to continue its older processor lineups by releasing newer SKUs. The company has kept alive its AM4 platform through the same strategy, but appears to be much more focused on AM5 lately due to its relevance in modern times. The company is now expected to release one more processor in the Zen 4 Raphael, […]
