AMD reportedly launching two new Ryzen 5 5600 series CPUs

AMD is reportedly expanding its AM4 platform with two new Ryzen 5 5600 series CPUs, as seen by fresh listings on motherboard sites. Each manufacturer has a list of compatible CPUs for each motherboard and BIOS version, and these lists now include the Ryzen 5600T and 5600XT, both of which are 6C/12T processors.

As pointed out by @momomo_us, the 5600T has a 3.5GHz base clock, whereas the 5600XT has a 3.8GHz base frequency. There is currently no information on turbo clocks, although both are 65W TDP SKUs with 32MB of L3 cache.

As of now, AMD has yet to officially confirm availability of these CPUs but motherboard makers seem to know something about them. The company has a busy month ahead elsewhere in the CPU space, as the first Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs are launching in November.
