AMD Ryzen™ 3 Processor

Lab501, Romania leads with AMD’s new market innovation and states that “Ryzen's development began years ago, with a team of brilliant minds making considerable efforts in this respect. But for us, consumers, things have really changed over the last 5 months. In less than half a year, AMD has been able to launch three series of processors that address three market segments. The AMD offer is now complete with 9 processors with prices ranging from 499 to 2290 RON, from quad-core with 4 threads and up to 8 core 16-threads.” 

As ever, AMD is being compared to Intel in much of the media discussion, in a very positive vein confirmed by digital.bg, Bulgaria “The new generation [Ryzen 3] of AMD CPUs is probably the best product that the company has created to compete with Intel.” 

Key Media Quotes for Ryzen 3 

“Out of the two, the 1300X is a better processor and a smarter choice. As we have seen, it is not drastically behind the much more expensive Intel i5 7500 processor (that cannot be overclocked) in CPU tests” - PCekspert.com 

“The Ryzen 3 goes against Core i3, aiming to cause some inconvenience to the most popular solution of this market segment. Specifically, the 1300X goes against i3 7300, while the 1200 model will compete against i3 7100. The Ryzen models do have clear advantage in this segment considering they have dual four cores, and its competition only have two. This what makes this battle so predictable. Also, there’s the fact that AMD has lower list price.” - Prohardver.hu 

“On Thursday, AMD launched the first affordable models of AMD Ryzen processors. The two models are Ryzen 3 1200 for the price of $109, and Ryzen 3 1300X for $129. Both are Quad-Core and according to first benchmarks, on factory clocks they’re mostly similar or faster compared to their more expensive rivals - $117 Core i3 7100 and $138 Core i3 7300. Additionally, they’re completely unlocked for overclocking, unlike the competition.” - origo.hu 

“AMD launched two models Ryzen 3 desktop CPUs for the mainstream users, building on the momentum from Zen architecture, which analysts define as “best new technology.” - technews.bg 

“The Ryzen 3 series has a lot to offer, as the CPUs have 4 physical /logical cores - so the number of physical cores is twice the number of cores with its direct competitor.” - ioncomputers.bg. 

“The new generation [Ryzen 3] of AMD CPUs is probably the best product that the company has created to compete with Intel.” - digital.bg   

“The last decade has not been very easy for AMD, and the processor market looked pretty bleak one year ago, when Intel first launched a top end CPU at $1700, instead of $999. Of course, Ryzen's development began years ago, with a team of brilliant minds making considerable efforts in this respect. But for us, consumers, things have really changed over the last 5 months. In less than half a year, AMD has been able to launch three series of processors that address three market segments. The AMD offer is now complete with 9 processors with prices ranging from 499 to 2290 RON, from quad-core with 4 threads and up to 8 core 16-threads.” - Lab501 

“The conclusion is that I am pleased with the behavior of the system based on these two AMD Ryzen 3 1200 and 1300X processors, especially if we also take into account their prices (this motherboard and processor cost up to $240).” - Imidoresc.ro 

“And today Intel got another headshot from AMD with the launch of Ryzen 3 series, a direct competition for Core i3 family. Basically, AMD Ryzen 3 is better than Core i3-7350K both in performance and in price.” - ReviewStudio
