https://wccftech.com/amd-ryzen-5-3500x-6-core-cpu-unboxing-benchmarks-leak/ > The first unboxing and benchmarks of the AMD Ryzen 5 3500X processor have been posted by the Chinese media. The processor which is AMD’s answer to the Core i5-9400F is expected to hit store shelves today, aiming the sub-$150 US market segment. > AMD is preparing two variants for the sub-$150 US market, the Ryzen 5 3500X & the Ryzen 5 3500. Both processors feature 6 cores and 6 threads which means that there won’t be multi-threading support on either chip, however, given their price point and the market they are aiming, a cut-down core configuration is expected. As such, these would be the first Ryzen 3000 parts with no multi-threading support.
