Update 27.05.2019: Today AMD announced the real Ryzen 3000 specs and they are nowhere close to what was claimed below. There are no additional cores for Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7, there is just a new Ryzen 9 3900X with 12 cores. Ryzen 5 and 7 just get a small clock improvement and a larger L3 cache. The 65W TDP of the Ryzen 7 3700X is interesting. Anandtech reports:
| Name | Cores | Base clock (GHz) | Turbo Clock (GHz) | TDP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ryzen 5 3600 | 6 | 3.6 | 4.2 | 65 |
| Ryzen 5 3600X | 6 | 3.8 | 4.4 | 95 |
| Ryzen 7 3700X | 8 | 3.6 | 4.4 | 65 |
| Ryzen 7 3800X | 8 | 3.9 | 4.5 | 105 |
| Ryzen 9 3900X | 12 | 3.8 | 4.6 | 105 |

If what is listed on these shop sites is true Ryzen 3000 will be an incredible release. But first the links:

This would result in these specifications:
| Name | Cores | Base clock (GHz) | Turbo Clock (GHz) | TDP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ryzen 3 3300 | 6 | 3.2 | 4.0 | ? |
| Ryzen 3 3300X | 6 | 3.5 | 4.3 | ? |
| Ryzen 5 3600 | 8 | 3.6 | 4.4 | ? |
| Ryzen 5 3600X | 8 | 4.0 | 4.8 | ? |
| Ryzen 7 3700 | 12 | 3.8 | 4.6 | ? |
| Ryzen 7 3700X | 12 | 4.2 | 5.0 | 105 |
| Ryzen 9 3800X | 16 | 3.9 | 4.7 | 125 |

| might be wrong |
If the data is correct this would be huge. Two reasons:
1) The core count is a jump up. So far, Ryzen 3 had 4 cores, Ryzen 5 had 6 and Ryzen 7 had 8. Now Ryzen 3 would have 6, Ryzen 5 would have 8, Ryzen 7 would even move to 12 and the Ryzen 9 3800X would move into Threadripper territory with 16 cores. It can be safely assumed that all these processors would feature double the threads. This means that if AMD manages to keep the prices close to the prices of the current generation, already because of the jump in core count these offers would be very attractive.
But 2), AMD also raised the core clock significantly. With new turbo clocks of up to 5GHz Intel’s i5-9600K, i7-9700K and i9-9900K would no longer be the only ideal option for high FPS gaming. And also many regular applications would profit a lot from the higher clocks.
I would not believe these numbers if it were a regular leak. But specs on shop sites tend to be correct, and it would be not the first time specifications of a new product get published like this by accident. Let’s hope it’s true.
