Word is going around that AMD is planning the AMD Ryzen 5 2500X and Ryzen 3 2300X processors.

The Ryzen 5 2500X is a quad-core model with eight threads, it has a 3.6GHz base clock, 4.0GHz Turbo, 16MB L3 cache, and an expected price range of $150-$160. Leaked Geekbench scores reveal performance of 4782 points (single-core) and 17291 points (multi-core), putting it pretty close to Intel's Core i7-7700.

Next we have the Ryzen 3 2300X, this is a quad-core, quad-threaded chip with a 3.5Ghz base frequency, 4.0GHz Turbo, and an expected price level of $120 to $140. This one is close in performance to Intel's Core i5-7600K.

Availability is expected soon, but we don't know an exact date.
