Will I finally be able to build a decent mini powerhouse with a 60w external power supply?
Oh. Wait. No. No integrated video on E chips. Bummer.

can u imagine running 8 core CPU on passive cooller? LOL.
AMD is having fun on Intel's expense .

Put that 45W CPU on a mini-itx mobo and you got a solid home server. Looks like I'm upgrading my home server before my desktop

I'm not sure I really understand the point of the 2300X. Seems a little too niche (especially for the power consumption), and I'm sure AMD still has plenty of stock left over from 1st gen Ryzen 3s.

I want to see it in action before I decide if it's worth it. Right now i'd skip it. The 2300X that it. Unless it has some kinda ungodly overclock or priced really low, most others will skip it too.
I do expect it to reach 4.2 ghz boost with ease. With 4c/4t that is not really that great unless the price is right.
Heat will be the issue with it. Same reason the 2700e is clocked so low. Looks like the heat spreader may not be soldered. AMD took shortcuts with these chips. I hope the price reflects that.

They will also consume even more power than the 2300X once overclocked to match performance..... They already consume as much or more at their base frequency.

that 2200g is a good deal but not better then even the 1300x. for one all amd apu only clock at certain ghz when igpu is maxxed out it has less l3 cache, wont support as high ddr4 speeds, and it only has 8 pci-e lanes and i think b350 only adding 6 from chipset. nvme runs x4 your wifi card run x1 that leave x3 for gpu off the cpu and additional drives legacy hardware. the 2200g is gonna be more prone to higher latency; additionally nvme raids are gonna become main stream for us hobby developers & content creators. so if you got a rx460 1060 or 1050ti when they where like $70-$150 the 1300x & 2300x could see some sales and overall that caches, clocks, ddr4 speeds, pcie lanes, zen+ revisions are all gonna boost min fps for us budget gamers.
basically these apu for people who dont care about gaming, development, and content creation; although im rooting for it in laptop platform if amd doesnt cut it to garbage and oem give you single channel memory controller in 2018. also with 2200g at $99 there is absolutely no reason to buy old amd cpu like kalvari, fx unless you want to upgrade a exsisting fm2 am3 pc. kalvari has better single core then fx and they will bottleneck very easy more so on any unreal engine game with physx cpu api. either way neither of these cpu will reach ryzen architecture.
i would like the 2300x if it came with spire amd should drop stealth cooler altogether. this will be decent cpu when the sales come & motherboards compatibility is fixed an you dont need 1st gen lmao to upgrade 90% of bios on market.
