AMD Rebrands Older Mobile Chips as Ryzen 10/100 as Budget 7500X3D Surfaces at UK Retailer

The moves complicate comparisons for shoppers because the relabeled laptops use years‑old designs.

Overview

  • AMD has posted product pages for new Ryzen 10 and Ryzen 100 mobile lines that map to 2022 Mendocino (Zen 2) and Rembrandt‑R (Zen 3+) parts with essentially identical specifications.
  • Coverage from Tom’s Hardware, PCWorld, PC Gamer, and Ars Technica notes the refreshed names risk confusing buyers by presenting rebadged chips as new.
  • A UK retailer listing spotted by leaker @momomo_us shows an unannounced Ryzen 5 7500X3D with a new OPN code, but AMD has not confirmed the processor.
  • Analysts expect the 7500X3D to be a six‑core Zen 4 X3D part with large L3 cache and lower clocks, potentially becoming the cheapest AM5 X3D gaming option if launched.
  • Separately, Wccftech reports via an unnamed source that AMD may unveil Zen 5 Ryzen 9000 X3D CPUs and 9000G APUs at CES 2026, a claim that remains unverified.
