At Computex 2024 in early June, AMD unveiled four Ryzen 9000 series desktop processors based on the latest Zen 5 architecture, as well as two Ryzen 5000XT series models based on the older Zen 3 architecture. All of these new products were initially expected to go on sale on July 31. However, AMD has officially delayed the launch of Zen 5 models by up to two weeks.
