In addition to the 16-core/32-thread monster that is the Ryzen 9 3950X, AMD has also unveiled two more new members of the Ryzen 3000 series in the form of Ryzen 3 3200G and Ryzen 5 3400G. However, these new chips which include integrated Radeon Vega graphics are not exactly part of the 3rd Gen Ryzen family though.
Instead, the CPU portion of these chips is still based on the 12nm Zen architecture. Additionally, they also don’t support PCIe 4.0 which is among the most touted feature of the Zen 2-based 3rd Gen Ryzen chips.
So, what do these chips bring to the table then? All in all, you are mainly looking at improved clock speed although the Ryzen 5400 does come with additional feature such as better cooler, metal-based TIM, and the support for Precision Boost Overdrive Automatic Overclocking functionality.
In terms of pricing, the Ryzen 3 3200G will be available for USD 99 (about RM 412) while the Ryzen 5 3400G can be obtained for USD 149 (about RM 620). Just like the rest of Ryzen 3000 series chips excluding the 16-core behemoth that is the Ryzen 9 3950X, both chips will also be released into the market on 7 July 2019.
