Gibbo over at Overclockers UK has alluded to the possible release of AMD’s R5 Ryzen CPU lineup in a couple of weeks. Those waiting for a cheaper Ryzen processor with less cores now have a rough estimate to go by. It will be interesting to see if less cores allow the Ryzen CPU to stretch their legs a bit. Personally I’m hoping for a return of the pencil trick unlocking method.



Hi there AMD have authorised OcUK to drop prices on all older generation CPU to make sure it is firmly below Ryzen 7 and also the upcoming Ryzen 5 which shall be available in next couple of weeks.
