New AMD Ryzen 8000G price leak points to surprisingly expensive APUs

The AMD Ryzen 8000G sequence is predicted to launch someday subsequent 12 months, and we now have some thought of how a lot the APUs will value. Sadly, we might must pay just a little bit extra for these chips in comparison with their closest 7000 sequence kinfolk.

For these out of the loop, these AMD Ryzen 8000G APUs aren’t meant as a substitute for the corporate’s present best gaming CPU lineup. As an alternative, they function successors to the earlier 5000G chips that, unusually, didn’t get the sequel remedy with the primary run of AM5 processors, specifically the Ryzen 7000 sequence.

Traditionally, ‘G’ processors have commanded a considerably greater price ticket than their siblings and this seems to be the case with the 8000G sequence. Sadly, in line with alleged worth ranges acquired by momomo_us, the additional value for better iGPU efficiency could also be a lot greater this time round.

The Ryzen 5 8600G, for instance, is seemingly set to value $240-310, making it $10-$80 dearer than its closest relative, the Ryzen 5 7600. Different processors, just like the Ryzen 7 8700G, are rumored to set you again $340-$440, a whopping $11-111 greater than the Ryzen 7 7700.

We must always study extra in regards to the Ryzen 8000G sequence subsequent 12 months, presumably throughout CES 2024. Till then, given our Ryzen 7 7800X3D review a learn, to see how crew pink’s finest silicon performs in video games.
