Ryzen 3 3100 / Ryzen 3 3300 based Quad Core procs from AMD (updated)
There's no stopping AMD lately, the entire Ryzen 3000 line-up has been incredible successful. But wait Dave, there's more (as there always is). Of course in the lower end of the spectrum there is room left as really, the lowest core count for AMD is six cores currently in the 3000 series.
Well, AMD seems to be planning quad-core based Ryzen 3 series processors as well. It might be a proper value opportunity for a quick internet PC, and well even for gaming if with a fast enough clocked SKU.
The new quad-core processors would be ZEN2 and thus Matisse based, it will be interested to see how the chips are configured as each die still holds 8 cores divided into two 4-core clusters (CCX). Likely AMD will be disabling one of the two CCXs completely opposed to running a more complex 2+2 core configuration. It saves on latency as well. momomo_us spotted two entries, the Ryzen 3 3100 (MPN: 100-000000284) and the Ryzen 3 3300X (MPN: 100-000000159).
Both processors have hyperthreading / SMT enabled and that means 4 cores, 8-threads with a 65W TDP. The 3100 would boost towards 3.90 GHz, the 3300X towards 4.30 GHz. If priced right, these might be making excellent little value processors for a quick PC build based on a lower specced motherboard. Chatter is a June release for these procs.
Update: prices for the two four-core models have been mentioned on the web. The Ryzen 3 3100 is said to be sold for $ 104, the Ryzen 3 3300X for $ 120. According to the current exchange rate with taxes that would be around 114 euros and 130 euros. It is just as unclear whether the CPUs are going to retail or are only intended for system providers (Source: KOMACHI_ENSAKA (Twitter))

it depends for the use case, for my cheap mame machine, a quad core with integrated apu would be great. Office pc too.

No, no, think about how good the I7 6700 and 7700 still are, given Zen2 are quite similar in performance, so I think they will be great buy by themselves, I mean as all use processors. Remember also you have the 3400G, although it's zen1+.

I wonder how it will compare against the 1600 AF.
