The editors didn't like
Doesn't overclock fantastically
Iterative improvements over last gen
No QuickSync type of tech

Lower performance in applications than alternatives
Small performance advantage over previous-gen
Demands high-speed DDR4 for improved graphics performance
Which can be costly
Slim overclocking potential and PBO proves of little benefit
Intel's UHD 630 iGPU looks to offer better media playback performance
Lower performance in applications than alternatives, Small performance advantage over previous-gen
The Ryzen 5 3400G is a great niche part for low-cost systems built around integrated graphics, like budget gaming rigs, HTPCs, and basic computers. But keep your eye out for deals on cheaper previous-gen competitors...

Abstract: AMD has been on a roll recently, with their 3rd gen Ryzen CPUs smashing the competition. So, when you hear they've got a “3rd gen” APU out too, you would understandably be pretty excited. Sadly I'm here to be the buzzkill, and tell you that while this APU...

AMD's intentions to make non-discrete GPU gaming a possibility for those on strict budgets were proven possible last year with the Raven Ridge Ryzen 5 2400G. That APU finally offered solid CPU performance thanks to the use of its Zen architecture. And the...

Landing in stores for less than its predecessor helps the 3400G impress its value upon the market, offering console-levels of gaming performance, where 720p and 1080p are still common despite their “4K capability”. That value is only bolstered by falling...
Abstract: AMD's APUs were, not too long ago, considered to be its most competitive products, with Intel lacking (and still lacking) when it comes to onboard graphics, with current desktop offerings from the blue team simple unable to provide reasonable frame rates...

Abstract: Trying to figure out the best CPU for your next PC upgrade or DIY build? With apologies to Robert Frost, it's the classic two roads that parted in the wood—if the wood were a shopping-results page at Newegg or Amazon, and the road kept dividing endlessly...

Abstract: These days, you're not suffering for choice if you're shopping for a new desktop CPU. Far from it! And that's true whether you're buying a new processor you'll use for PC gaming, one packed with cores for speedy content creation or media crunching, or a s...

Our complete PC build, cost us approximately USD $650, which is sounds about right. It's not the most high-end, but bare in mind with the X570 motherboard, you can upgrade your CPU to a more powerful Ryzen 7 or Ryzen 9 (3000-series) at any time, as well a...
