AMD is currently prepping to release a pair of new Zen 5-powered Ryzen 9000 Series desktop CPU refreshes, according to new information from insider 'chi11eddog' on social media. The Ryzen 7 9750X and the Ryzen 5 9650X will reportedly increase both clock speeds and power draw (TDP) compared to their baseline models. And as these are non-X3D models, they'll utilize the standard 32 MB on-die L3 cache.
Looking at the Ryzen 7 9750X, an 8-core, 16-thread processor, it gets a Base Frequency increase from 3.8 GHz on the Ryzen 7 9700X to 4.2 GHz. Likewise, the Max. Boost Frequency is also increasing from 5.5 GHz on the Ryzen 7 9700X to 5.6 GHz on the new Ryzen 7 9750X. This overclocked Ryzen 7 9750X, so to speak, also raises the TDP to 120W, a notable increase over the Ryzen 7 9700X's 65W TDP.
