AMD Athlon 3000G
The AMD Athlon 3000G is an entry-level Socket AM4 desktop processor with 2 cores, 4 threads and a fixed 3.5 GHz clock. It pairs 4 MB of L3 cache with Radeon Vega 3 graphics at 1100 MHz and, unlike most Athlons, has an unlocked multiplier for overclocking.
Pros
- Unlocked multiplier allows overclocking, which AMD lists as supported for this model
- Integrated Radeon Vega 3 graphics at 1100 MHz, so no discrete card is needed
- Low 35 W default TDP suits small, quiet builds
- Launched at a $49 list price
- Drops into existing Socket AM4 motherboards
Cons
- Only 2 cores and 4 threads, limiting multitasking and heavy workloads
- No boost clock, the 3.5 GHz speed is fixed
- Vega 3 graphics has just 3 compute units, enough for desktop and video but not demanding games
