AMD will focus on Ryzen 7 5800X, Ryzen 5 5600X and Ryzen 5 3600 sales this quarter. Ryzen 9 5900X and 5950X will remain in short supply

AMD Ryzen 5000 processors with Zen 3 architecture have been in short supply since the announcement, so retail prices are far from the manufacturer’s recommended ones, and individual models simply cannot be found on sale. New reports from sources familiar with the situation suggest that AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, Ryzen 5 5600X, and Ryzen 5 3600 will be the easiest to find this quarter.

The corresponding forecast is published by the WCCFTech website, based on information from its own sources. We note right away that the actual availability of specific models of AMD processors in a particular location may differ greatly from the described priorities, so you need to be prepared for such discrepancies.

Older processors of the Vermeer family need more chiplets, so they naturally remain in short supply. The Ryzen 9 5950X and Ryzen 9 5900X models will continue to be difficult to buy this quarter. They will be accompanied by the more mature Ryzen 7 3800X, Ryzen 3 3300X, and Ryzen 3 3100. Apparently, when the volume of processors is limited, AMD is guided by the same logic as Intel: priority should be given to models with optimal added value, including the most available processors are not applicable.

The situation with the availability of Ryzen 9 3900X, Ryzen 7 3700X, Ryzen 3 3200G, Ryzen 5 3400G, and Ryzen 5 3600X processors will be slightly better. Hybrid models from this list are produced using 12nm technology, so it is quite natural that in conditions of high demand for 7nm products, they will become more widespread.

AMD will focus on supplying the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, Ryzen 5 5600X, and Ryzen 5 3600 processors, the source explains. The former has eight cores, settling for one chiplet instead of two, making it easier to ship when capacity is limited. The last two processors are in high demand, so AMD probably decided to meet customers halfway by increasing their production quotas. Recall that 7nm processors for the company are produced by Taiwanese TSMC.
