Posted on Tuesday, August 27 2019 @ 9:18 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Twitter user TUM_APISAK discovered specifications about AMD's upcoming Ryzen 5 3500 processor. One of the surprising elements here appear to be the lack of simultaneous multithreading (SMT), this chip has six cores and is six threaded.

The part has a 3.6GHz base clock and 4.10GHz Boost. It will rival the Core i5-9400/9400F. No word about pricing but it could be in the $169 to $179 range.
