New AMD Ryzen 9000 Series Rumors and Expected US Pricing
Retailers across the United States have started listing the cost of the upcoming AMD Ryzen 9000 processors before the official launch. The information appears on shopping portals and has been reported by IXBT, lending weight to the rumors about pricing and release windows.
The Ryzen 9000 lineup is believed to arrive with a slight delay. The initial models are expected to hit shelves within days of the official announcement, with a small window between releases for the remaining variants. Although AMD has not confirmed any pricing, major retailers such as Best Buy and Newegg are already publishing what appear to be the final MSRPs for the American market.
Based on the credibility of these retailers and the alignment with early market chatter, it is reasonable to presume these are the finalized prices in the United States. The Ryzen 5 9600X is anticipated at around $280, the Ryzen 7 9700X near $360, the Ryzen 9 9900X at about $450, and the Ryzen 9 9950X listed close to $450. A variant priced at $600 is also mentioned, suggesting a top-end model in the lineup.
Several commentators note that these figures represent reductions compared with the pricing of the prior generation by roughly $20 to $100, depending on the model. This pattern aligns with expectations that older processors will see price adjustments once the newer family becomes widely available.
Industry calendars indicate a staged launch: the first two Ryzen 9000 models could become available on August 8, followed by the remaining pair a week later on August 15. This rollout mirrors common practice in the CPU market, where initial stock concentrates on enthusiast and early adopter channels before broad retail distribution expands.
