A previously unannounced Ryzen processor has been unearthed within an official AMD document. Twitter tech spy @Komachi was first to share a link to the AMD Product Master list (PDF) dated September 2019, which contains references to a processor dubbed the Ryzen 7 3750X. The document has since been removed - but not before Plantet3DNow downloaded and took screenshots of it.
From the name of this processor one would assume it will fit between the existing AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and Ryzen 7 3800X processors in price/performance, if and when it becomes available. However, if you compare the Ryzen 7 3700X and Ryzen 7 3800X processors there isn't much of a gap available to make such a tweener product a worthwhile addition.

The only confirmed specs from the AMD Product Master list are the name of the processor, that it is a 105W part and that it is socket AM4 compatible. Checking the table above we can safely assume some things are the same as its nearest neighbours, I would say, with the only real questions being the base / turbo clocks and the price.
While the product only just squeezes between the Ryzen 7 3700X and Ryzen 7 3800X processors in spec terms there is a $70 gap to slot it into. Various commentators have put forward the idea that the new Ryzen 7 3750X could perhaps not be a CPU for public consumption - but rather be aimed at OEMs and system integrators, or specific world markets, like the recently announced Ryzen 9 3900 and Ryzen 5 3500X.
