AMD's Ryzen 8000G lineup gets a price drop — high-end integrated graphics get cheaper ahead of 9000-series release

AMD Ryzen 5 8600G.

AMD has lowered prices on its Ryzen 8000G series of desktop APUs across all retailers. As spotted by VideoCardz, AMD's entire suite of current-gen processors with integrated graphics has taken price drops up to $30, indicating a planned change ahead of Ryzen 9000's release in July.

The Ryzen 8000G desktop series first released in January of this year after a long wait; the last time AMD released desktop APUs before the 8000G series was in 2021. The 8000G series is the only line of processors on the current-gen AM5 socket which offer integrated graphics or an NPU, thanks to the Phoenix iGPU cores borrowed from AMD's Hawk Point mobile APUs. Today, three models of the Phoenix chips are available for sale at the new prices: the Ryzen 7 8700G, Ryzen 5 8600G, and Ryzen 5 8500G (the Ryzen 3 8300G was also released with the line but has never been available for sale to consumers).
