Abstract: For the past few years, processors made by Intel have been more powerful – and much more popular – than those made by rival AMD. However, AMD’s Ryzen processors have turned that around: they’re powerful CPUs at a tempting price, and an excellent alternati...
What we have with the Ryzen 3 1200 is a similar situation to the Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 series, specifically regarding the Ryzen 5 1600 and Ryzen 7 1700. They have the same basic specifications as their more expensive X-edition siblings but slower frequencie...

Competitive price versus performance, Significantly lowers AM4 and Ryzen platform entry cost, Good 1080P60, 1440P60, and slightly higher refresh rate gaming performance at stock and when overclocked, Unlocked overclocking multiplier, High-speed memory sup
Power consumption is significantly higher than Intel competitors, Intel's bargain Pentium G4560 remains a tough thorn in AMD's side, Lack of iGPU compared to Intel competitors may limit some possible applications or troubleshooting approaches
In Ryzen 3, AMD has delivered another strong addition to its current mainstream CPU line-up that reduces the cost of entry to the enticing AM4 platform. Giving budget-conscious buyers a true quad-core CPU with modern architecture and a strong upgrade path...

One of the most affordable quad-core CPUs on the market, Decent gaming performance, Extremely easy to overclock, Almost matched performance of 1300X once overclocked, Efficient and cool, Easy to keep cool,
None, “The cheapest Ryzen to date is an impressive bit of hardware. Delivering quad-core performance and easy overclocking that’s sure to please those building a system on a tighter budget”, AMD Ryzen 3 1200 Quad-Core CPU Review,
For those building a Ryzen AM4 system on a tighter budget, the Ryzen 3 is a no brainer. The R3 is the most affordable Ryzen chip ever, and it's about half the price of Intel's quad-core offerings, especially the ones that offer overclocking. It runs incre...
The introduction of a couple of Ryzen 3 processors provides PC enthusiasts with the opportunity of buying into the latest Zen architecture from as little as £100, with AMD targetting the £500-£750 base-unit market through a combination of these chips alli...
Low platform cost, Easy to overclock, Sense MI technologies, Very low thermal output, Great for gamers, Competitive mainstream performance, Neutral, - No RGB Wraith cooler (Why not make them more accessible AMD?), - Same power envelope as Ryzen 7
iGPU
In our testing, Ryzen 3 has thrown up some dramatically interesting results, and when you consider the updates and optimisations AMD has made since the release of the Ryzen family, it is understandable. Price to compete against the i3 7300 and the i3 7100...
AMD's two new Ryzen chips are cheaper than their Intel rivals while offering better multi-threaded performance, comparable power consumption and a little more speed in tough gaming scenarios. Intel's chip is better in single-threaded tasks, but I'd still...
While the numbers are impressive, gaming performance of Ryzen processors still leaves a lot to be desired. Not to mention that not all games have been optimized for the Ryzen processors and DX 12, which can lead to better utilization of multiple CPU cores...
Four physical cores, Efficient AMD Zen architecture, Cooler included
No integrated graphics
AMD has been most relevant in the budget market for the past several years. This is where it retreated to when it couldn't keep up with Intel's advances, and it actually did fairly well by cutting prices and repositioning its formerly-high-end products. A...
To be honest, I'm pretty disappointed with the overclocking potential with the setup we have here. Even overclocking the CPU alone, it can't match the performance of an Intel i5-6400 in stock clocks. Even when it's overclocked, it still trades blows with...
