AMD Dual-Core Quad-Thread Athlon 200GE with Vega graphics appears on SiSoftware database
Now it looks like AMD has plans to tap into the low-cost consumer PC market, with a CPU called the Athlon 200GE appearing on the SiSoftware database, listed as a desktop product with two cores, four threads, a clock speed of 3.2GHz and an integrated Vega graphics component. This product listing is from an upcoming Lenovo system, with the Athlon 200GE likely releasing as a cut-down version of AMD’s Ryzen+Vega CPUs.Â
The Athlon branding suggests that AMD does not want this product to be associated with Ryzen on the desktop market, likely due to its low specifications, though its Vega graphics component does point towards the use of a Ryzen Mobile/Ryzen+Vega component. The G likely signifies the inclusion of integrated graphics, just like the Ryzen 3 2200G and the Ryzen 5 2400G, though specifications-wise this product looks like a desktop version of the Ryzen 3 2200U mobile CPU.   Â
Below is a brief comparison between the Athlon 200GE and some of AMD’s Ryzen+Vega products, where we have only included the specifications for the 200GE that are listed on the SiSoftware database, though we can assume that this is a 14nm product that can be used on an AM4 socket.Â

The Athlon 200GE could act as a competitor for Intel’s Pentium series products, offering more than enough performance for general desktop applications. This product could bring AMD into the sub-£90 CPU market, giving them the opportunity to rival Intel across their whole desktop lineup.Â
