AMD Introduces Ryzen 3 Desktop Processors and B550 Chipset
Today, AMD announced the Ryzen 3 3100 and Ryzen 3 3300X desktop processors, available beginning in May for $99 USD and $120 USD respectively.
The B550 chipset will be available in motherboards from leading ODM partners worldwide starting June 16.
AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) announced the newest additions to the 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen desktop processor family, the AMD Ryzen 3 3100 and AMD Ryzen™ 3 3300X processors and AMD B550 Chipset for Socket AM4 designed for 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen desktop processors with over 60 designs in development. Taking advantage of the AMD world-class portfolio of technologies, these new Ryzen 3 desktop processors bring the groundbreaking “Zen 2” core architecture to business users, gamers, and creators worldwide, leveraging Simultaneous Multi-Threading (SMT) technology for increased productivity. With double the threads, twice the bandwidth, and a wide selection of motherboards in development the AMD B550 chipset and Ryzen 3 desktop processors deliver the ideal processing solution from top to bottom.
“Games and applications are becoming more and more demanding, and with this, users are demanding more from their PCs,” said Saeid Moshkelani, senior vice president and general manager, client business unit. “AMD is committed to providing solutions that meet and exceed those demands for all levels of computing. With the addition of these new Ryzen 3 desktop processors we are continuing this commitment with our mainstream gaming customers. We’ve taken performance up a level, doubling the processing threads of our Ryzen 3 processors to propel gaming and multitasking experiences to new heights.”
AMD Ryzen 3 3100 and AMD Ryzen 3 3300X
Continuing to demonstrate its leadership in the consumer desktop space, the AMD Ryzen 3 3100 and AMD Ryzen 3 3300X represent the fastest ever AMD Ryzen 3 desktop processors, bringing world class desktop performance to mainstream gamers. They also stand for AMD’s commitment to improving CPU performance and technologies for consumers by enabling SMT on a Ryzen 3 desktop processor for the very first time.
The processors take advantage of 18MB Cache, delivering dramatic memory latency reduction, translating directly to smoother, faster gaming performance for high framerates in CPU-heavy games. Further, with four cores, eight threads, and AMD SMT technology, the new Ryzen 3 processors provide incredible multitasking performance and responsiveness that consumers need.
The AMD Ryzen 3 3100 offers:
- Up to 20% gaming performance than the competition
- Up to 75% creator performance than the competition

That's huge.
4C/4T was highly limited in gaming already with sttuters all over the place.
Seeing R3 series jumping into 4c/8t at 100$ seems like a huge deal for any entry level system.
I've still got a R5 3600 and hardly I would have gone to something lower than that, but not all the people have money.
Next year, probably we will see 4c/8t with Integrated RDNA GPUs, it will be entirelly overkill for any PC at home just doing regular stuff like web browsing and office work (I'm starting to believe, that people with this use cases should just remain in a "kind" of thin station work), ofc people with more demanding work makes sense to use regular desktop sizes.

so it is better to buy a 99 usd cpu for a simple machine without GPU? or to buy just a 3200g with just a little less performance on the cpu side but with an integrated gpu? if we are talking about cheap computers i still prefer to get an integrated gpu.
