AMD Socket AM4 users are in for a treat, as the company plans two more processor models in the Ryzen 5000X3D series, according to chi11eddog, a reliable source with AMD leaks.

Is there really a market for this? The 5800X is already so damn cheap, I can’t see why anyone would opt for a lower clock version for what’s likely to be marginal discounts at MSRP.
5800X3D hasn’t budged from €/$320 in weeks.
That’s what happens when there’s a great demand for those chips
In Germany/Austria it dropped to 280€ in September, hovered in the 300€ range in October, currently at ~320€

5800X3D is only cheap by rich countries standards.
Pretty sure they specifically meant the 5800x without 3D, which is actually quite cheap for what it is, in Europe it goes for like half the price of the 5800x3D.
If their main use case is gaming then a 5700x3D will probably outperform a 5800x, while still costing less than a 5800x3D
