Entry level processors, going quad-core. Yes AMD is at it again with their Ryzen 3 series processors, in this review we test their Ryzen 3 1200 and 1300X. That means you can gain a significant number in proc performance, yet remain in the lowest price bracket. And tweaked a bit, that even is mainstream performance for low-end prices!

No wonder the i5's are going to become 6cores after this... it just got crushed by a chip half the cost... cheap quad cores are now a thing, great for people wanting to get into gaming on the entry level stuff

Huge chunks of Intels i3 and i5 range are now redundant or soon will be when the APUs land as well.

Very nice entry level gaming CPUs. Now people can make a mean gaming PC without having to spend a lot.

Huge chunks of Intels i3 and i5 range are now redundant or soon will be when the APUs land as well.

You can say the same regarding Ryzen R5 and R7 seeing that the gaming performance difference is not as big as the number of cores suggest...

Intel is going to have to rearrange their pricing structure and lower their prices...
