Of course, none of this is confirmed by AMD. So far, we just have a tip from a known leaker, so handle this rumor with some skepticism.

Gururu Wow, can't believe we are relaunching 4/5-year-old CPU/GPU tech probably for higher original MSRPs. Maybe they will add some cool anime graphic designs on the boxes. Reply

A lot of people want it, it's one of the final upgrades for AM4 (other than 5900X/5950X), and it's priced around the original MSRP on the used market. Reply
cknobman I am still running my AM4 rig with a vanilla 5600. If they release this at a fair price I will be buying. Really hoping the price is ~$300 (or less). Reply

The way I see it, at 199.99 it would be great for people looking for the top of the socket on AM4 for gaming and it will sell a decent amount. 249.99 would probably be the most I would tolerate, while still giving a decent opportunity for people to upgrade. AMD could probably sell such a chip for less than 200 though because of how cheap the process nodes are now. If that chip came out for 180 to 150, that would be a great deal even for new budget builds builds and would single handedly resurrect the sub 1k gaming PC. Reply
ezst036 10 years of a CPU socket. That is excellent customer service. Reply
