AMD Ryzen 3 3100 and Ryzen 3 3300X in test – office toy and toy pea against Intel’s Budget-Core

Normally in the fairy tale, the supposedly uglier sister is the shining match winner at the end and is allowed to ride with the snazzy prince radiantly with happiness on a white mold into the evening sun. But this doesn’t really work here, because the hierarchy that starts with the price and the specs also ends in very equivalent measurement results. Considering that according to the EIA, the two CPUs only separate 20 euros, then the Ryzen 3 3100 is certainly a decent offer for the well-placed office or a rather undemanding working PC, but nothing more. 109 Euros just don’t leave any more room for big jumps and you still have some CPUs below.

In contrast, the Ryzen 3 3300X can convince across the board, at least within its core capabilities. Four cores or 8 threads with over 4.3 GHz are a nice overall package for the announced 129 Euro and make you think almost with grunts of the Core i7-7700K, which by the way was not faster, only much thirstier. The fact that with such a Ryzen 3 3300X you will then not yet refurbishes a significantly more expensive Core i5-9400 is a reason to see red rather than blue in this price range. You can’t get past this little ryzen when it comes to entry-level gaming PCs.

Rejecting this offer now could be due to the not yet available substructure in the form of a B550 motherboard, because hardly anyone will want to spend more on the motherboard than on the CPU. However, the Radeon RX 5500XT lost a whopping 5 to 8% of performance due to the rather meager connection on the counter-test B450 board with PCIe 3.0. If AMD really wants to sell this card somehow, matching motherboards with PCIe for a small price are simply mandatory. I would have liked to have tested one, but there is simply (yet) nothing.

Despite all the circumstances with the motherboards, Corona back and forth, the Ryzen 3 3300X is exactly the piece of silicon that will surely delight the general public. Because the CPU is fast, efficient and easy to cool. So exactly what you usually don’t get in full at this price. Something else is always. Not here. And what you should also consider: why do you need the Ryzen 5 3600, whose two cores are more than a whopping 90 Euro street more expensive, if you do not want a single provider, who sells the CPU just 50 euros below the price of the usual price breaker shop with the mind at the beginning.

Intel will also have a hard time with The Generation 9.5, the small iteration game from 9 to 10. You bet the Core i3-10100, which is about the same price as the EIA, and now also offers 4 cores and 8 threads with a maximum all-core clock of 4.1 GHz. A free multiplier is not available, but the UHD Graphics 630. With 65 watts TDP, however, this CPU, similar to the Core i5-9400, is likely to snuggle much more tensely at the line and at the same time look at the drinking home at full load, since power comes from fuel and the node is comparatively rough-sleeping.

So it’s going to be exciting and the race for the budget PCs with high speeds is opened, at least that’s what AMD has already done with the Ryzen 3 3300X and Intel had to follow suit. Who’s happy? Of course we!
