AMD Ryzen 3 1200 Quad-Core CPU Review
Lack of IGP may hurt target market
IGPU
Unambitious clock speeds
Overclocking isn't rewarding
Power consumption is significantly higher than Intel competitors

To be honest, I'm pretty disappointed with the overclocking potential with the setup we have here. Even overclocking the CPU alone, it can't match the performance of an Intel i5-6400 in stock clocks. Even when it's overclocked, it still trades blows with...
