AMD Ryzen 3 1200 & 1300X CPU Review

...why even consider a quad-core, 4-thread processor? Price is the first thought that comes to mind as AMD has set the MSRP for the Ryzen 3 1200 CPU at $109.00 USD, and the Ryzen 3 1300X CPU at $129.00. At those price points you will get a processor that is... on par with many 8-core processors.

AMD Ryzen 3 1200 3.1 GHz

AMD's Ryzen 3 1200 is aggressively priced at $110, which makes it the most affordable Ryzen available. With clock frequencies ranging from 3.1 GHz Base to 3.4 GHz Boost, it is clocked not much different than the Ryzen 5 1400, which also has four physical cores, but includes the SMT technology on top.

AMD Ryzen 3 1200 and 1300X Review

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!

AMD Ryzen 3 1200 and Ryzen 3 1300X Processor Review

AMD is continuing its quest to clay back market share from Intel today with the release of Ryzen 3 processors. AMD is only releasing two Ryzen 3 processors today, the Ryzen 3 1200 and the Ryzen 3 1300X. Both of these are quad-core processors that have just four threads. It would be nice if they had Simultaneous Multi-Threading (SMT) technology like the Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 processors, but these are low cost offerings that are competing with Intel Core i3 dual-core processors...

AMD Ryzen 3 1300X & 1200 (4C4T) CPU Review

AMD’s formula for Ryzen has been consistent across the product stack – offer more cores or threads than Intel’s competitors at a given price point. That formula has translated into a strong product stack that looks particularly competitive around the £150-£300 price points with Ryzen 5 and the Ryzen 7 1700. However, upwards of £150 is still a sizeable chunk of cash to invest in a CPU especially when Intel has solid lower-cost offerings in the Core i3 and Pentium product range.

AMD Ryzen 3 1300X & 1200 Performance Review

AMD's Ryzen processors are making their way into more affordable price brackets with the Ryzen 3 1300X and 1200. But can their performance live up to already-high expectations against the i3 7300 and i3 7100?

AMD Ryzen 3 1300X 3.4 GHz

The AMD Ryzen 3 1300X, which is priced at $129, comes with a 3.4 GHz base clock and 3.7 GHz Boost. It offers four real cores that manage to beat the dual-core Intel Core i3-7300 with HyperThreading, which is significantly more expensive at the same time.

AMD Ryzen 3 1300X And 1200 Processor Review: More Affordable Zen

AMD is officially launching its latest series of Ryzen processors today, the affordably priced Ryzen 3. As the branding suggests, Ryzen 3 will complement the previously launched Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5 series of desktop processors, but will target lower-cost, entry-level price points.

Ryzen 3 isn’t your typical, entry-level processor, however. Ryzen 3 actually features the same die as its higher-end siblings, but has fewer active cores and symmetrical multi-threading (SMT) has been disabled. Ryzen 3 processors feature quad-core configurations, however, they leverage the same socket and packaging, have the same features, and are fully unlocked for easy overclocking...

AMD Ryzen 3 1300X and Ryzen 3 1200 CPU Review

We have seen AMD's strong multi-core performance with Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5 processors, and now we will watch as they take aim at Intel's Core i3 series processors with the new Ryzen 3 lineup. Today we have the Ryzen 3 1200 and the Ryzen 3 1300X. Compared to Intel's dual-core based i3 lineup, AMD's Ryzen 3 offerings bring four real cores to the table while Intel relies on Hyper-Threading to achieve four threads on their i3 parts. The Ryzen 3 processors we are looking at today offer mid 3GHz base and boost clocks, a nice serving of cache, two CCX (CPU Core Complex), and a nice boxed cooler. Let's take a look at how the Ryzen 3 series CPUs stack up.

AMD Ryzen 3 1300X and Ryzen 3 1200 Review

Ryzen goodness distilled to the budget market. AMD is showing no signs of slowing up with respect to launching new products throughout 2017. The first half has been dominated by the consumer Ryzen CPUs, while the company's data-center aspirations have had a shot in the arm with Epyc. Both are based on the same underlying Zen architecture, built from the ground up to compete against the best that rival Intel has to offer.

Ryzen is also finding a home in the professional market soon, and a notable inclusion during the Pro release late last month was reference to the more cost-sensitive Ryzen 3 processors. Said processors today come to the consumer market through the release of two chips - the Ryzen 3 1300X and Ryzen 3 1200. Without further ado, let's see just how they fit into the Ryzen landscape.

AMD Ryzen 3 1300X Review

Fresh from a successful roll-out of mainstream Ryzen 7 and 5 CPUs, AMD's attack on Intel now extends down into the low-end with its Ryzen 3 1300X and 1200 processors, which the company is making available today.
Intel's Core i3s are a staple of the high-volume mainstream market. They make up the most popular brand for budget-oriented builds by far. AMD is looking to shake that up with true quad-core processors that sell for even less than two Hyper-Threaded cores. As if a resource advantage wasn't already compelling enough, Ryzen 3 also enables unlocked multipliers. Intel is ill-prepared to fend off such a combination.

Although there is an unlocked Core i3-7350K at the top of Intel's Core i3 family, it isn't particularly popular. The chip is relatively expensive, and it unfortunately requires a pricey Z270-based motherboard for overclocking support. In comparison, AMD lets you overclock Ryzen 3 on cheaper B350-based platforms.

AMD Ryzen R3 CPUs

The Ryzen 5 launch was a lot better for budget minded gamers but all eyes have been on the Ryzen 3 launch to see if AMD is going to pull off the hat trick. Plus AMD has traditionally been the perfect company to go with when doing gaming PCs on a small budget. While the Ryzen 5 CPUs are great, they don’t really help with those builds. Today is the official launch day for Ryzen 3 and I’ve spent the last few weeks testing and playing around with it. I’m excited to give a quick run down on the details then dive into the performance numbers to see how it performs.
