Abstract: With the release of the AMD Ryzen 3 CPUs, the entire Ryzen CPU family is finally complete. Unlike the Ryzen 7s which will find home in high-end PCs and the Ryzen 5s which are a great bang-for-buck mainstream performance CPU, the new Ryzen 3s offer somethi...
The AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X and Threadripper 1920X are very impressive processors that did extremely well in content creation benchmarks that take advantage of having a 16-core, 32-thread processor in the system. The good news is a good number of app...

These Ryzen 3 CPUs with a 65 Watt TDP are much more power efficient than older Bulldozer CPUs at 125 Watts when in some tests offering similar performance, but not quite up to the performance-per-Watt Intel has with Kabylake (i3-7100 at 51 Watt TDP for re...

Abstract: The Ryzen 3 1300X, and its lower-clocked sibling the Ryzen 3 1200, are the first Summit Ridge-based processors in the Ryzen family to have SMT (simultaneous multithreading) disabled. Like the bottom of the Ryzen 5 stack, these two processors feature a 2+2...

The $129 Ryzen 3 is a fine fit for gamers, with four cores near the price of a dual-core Intel Core i3. For editing video or other CPU-intensive tasks, though, AMD's Ryzen 5 chips are tough to ignore, starting at just $30 more. Read More...
