We talked about the Ryzen 9 3900 non X model for quite a while now, it is officially available but intended for OEM businesses and system integrators. ... AMD launches Ryzen 5 3500X and Ryzen 9 3900 for OEM In Asia
Priced and cooled appropriately, the 3500 and 3500x paired with one of those rx 5500's and the oem's could make a very attractive entry-level gaming or workstation. Would be very nice and could really clean up in the 1000 dollar and less desktop market.
So do I understand that the 3900 will be available in USA (albeit for OEMs only) and it's just the 3500 that will be restricted to Asia?
What is the new equivalent of old cheap and productive Ryzen 1200? I still cannot find something really near its price/perf ratio.
Ryzen 3 3200G It may be Zen+, but its base MSRP is cheaper then the 1200, provides graphics, and a has a base frequency of 3.6Ghz instead of 3.1Ghz, and a boost of 4.0Ghz instead of 3.4Ghz. Seems like quite the performance to price ratio, since it's $99 vs $119 as well. Ryzen 1200: $109, 4 core, 4 thread, 3.1Ghz base, 3.4Ghz boost, no iGPU Ryzen 3200G: $99, 4 core, 4 thread, 3.6Ghz base, 4.0Ghz Boost, iGPU included. Personally i wouldn't be surprised to not see a Zen2 $100ish CPU until next year when it's tied with an APU.
