For all the official on the the AMD Ryzen 5 8600G release date, specs, and price, look no further than this very page. With the grand unveiling of the new Ryzen 8000 series chips in their pre-CES presentation on the 8th of Jan, Lisa Su and the crew confirmed the main info on these new processors, all that remains is to see how they perform (watch this space for our own third-party benchmarks).

AMD Ryzen 5 8600G release date: when will the Ryzen 5 8600G come out?

The Ryzen 5 8600G release date has been officially scheduled for the 31st of January 2024 – which is when you will be able to buy a physical copy of the new processor.

We don’t know whether Ryzen 5 8600G pre order options will go live, though they may be available on retailers like Amazon between the launch/reveal event and the released date proper, but we’ll have to wait and see.

AMD Ryzen 5 8600G specs

The entire Ryzen 8000G series is constructed with the same the Zen 4 architecture found in the previous gen, however the main improvements are with the integrated graphics and AI processing (pretty similar to Intel’s 14th gen series which they directly compete with). There is also an anticipation of enhanced power efficiency.

The 8700G will feature Radeon 760M integrated graphics, developed on RDNA 3 technology. It will also be one of the first desktop PC processors to incorporate NPUs, which will be particularly useful for AI-powered software and creative workloads, plus specific features such as AI noise-canceling.

AMD Ryzen 5 8600G price

AMD has stated that the official Ryzen 5 8600G price is slated to be $229. This may vary slightly depending on how the retailer chooses to price the item, however it’s usually fairly on the money (if you’ll excuse the pun).
