AMD accidentally reveals Ryzen 3 1300 and 1200 details

 

Yesterday, AMD announced their new Ryzen Pro lineup of enterprise CPUs, inadvertently giving us some information on their upcoming Ryzen 3 series of consumer products.  

Looking at AMD’s Ryzen Pro announcement, one thing is clear, that the specifications are almost identical to their consumer counterparts, giving us a glimpse of Ryzen 3 through the guise of the Ryzen Pro 3. 

AMD’s Ryzen Pro 3 CPUs will feature 4 cores and 4 threads and come with pricing that is similar to Intel’s i3 (2-core, 4-thread) lineup, giving AMD an advantage in multi-threaded applications. This matches previous rumours for Ryzen 3, and given the Ryzen Pro series’ similarities to their standard desktop counterparts, there is no reason to believe that Consumer Ryzen 3 will perform any differently than Ryzen Pro 3.  

Below is a table that compares the specifications of Ryzen 7, Ryzen 5 and Ryzen Pro 3, suggesting sub-£150 pricing for Ryzen 3, which makes Ryzen 3 super competitive with Intel’s i3 lineup.   

 

Processor Name Cores Threads Base Clock Speeds Boost Clock Speeds XFR (MHz) L3 Cache TDP Price UK
Ryzen 7 1800X 8 16 3.6GHz 4.0GHz +100 16MB 95W+ £449
Ryzen 7 1700X 8 16 3.4GHz 3.8GHz +100 16MB 95W £369
Ryzen 7 1700 8 16 3.0GHz 3.7GHz +50 16MB 65W £299
Ryzen 5 1600X 6 12 3.6GHz 4.0GHz +100 16MB 95W £229
Ryzen 5 1600 6 12 3.2GHz 3.6GHz +100 16MB 65W £199
Ryzen 5 1500X 4 8 3.5GHz 3.7GHz +200 16MB 65W £174
Ryzen 5 1400 4 8 3.2GHz 3.4GHz +50 8MB 65W £159
Ryzen 3 1300? 4 4 3.5GHz 3.7GHz ? 8MB 65W ?
Ryzen 3 1200?
4 4 3.1GHz 3.4Ghz ? 8MB 65W ?

 

Right now, only a single Intel i3 is overclockable, the i3 7350K, which is now priced at £149.99. This means that Ryzen 3 will likely be priced similarly to Intel’s non-k series locked CPUs, while Ryzen 3 will be overclockable, giving AMD a huge advantage in the budget gaming market given their increase core count and overclockability.

Ryzen 3 will launch sometime in H2 of 2017, which will place the launch sometime between July and December. We expect this launch to come sooner, rather than later, with a launch in late July or August. 

 

You can join the discussion on AMD’s Ryzen 3 series of CPUs on the OC3D Forums.
