Ryzen 3100 and 3300x || Is Intel in trouble?
Intel has been dominating the market the past few years in all sectors (mainstream pc, laptops, server) until 2017, when AMD had released their Ryzen lineup. It gave Intel a big blow in the face and quickly gained market share in the server and desktop PC market that requires multi-threaded performance. But it lagged behind intel in applications that greatly benefits from a single-threaded performance like gaming.
But with each generation of new products, AMD started to catch up with Intel in single-threaded performance, benefiting from their latest technology with IPC (instruction per clock) improvement and their new 7nm manufacturing process compared to Intel’s 14 nm. To beat Intel in the gaming and low budget PC segment, AMD recently announced Ryzen 3100 and 3100x processors to compete directly against Intel i3 (or even the i5) processors.
Today we are gonna go through the details and value of AMD Ryzen 3100 and 3100x CPUs to determine if they are worth buying for low budget casual gaming rigs.
