AMD is releasing two new low-tier CPUs at the end of May (the R3 3100 and R3 3300X). Due to their specifications and pricing, it’s very likely that one or both of them will be added to our main chart—but not immediately.
Greetings! Major Change: The recently-available-for-purchase TR 2950X easily and smoothly replaces the TR 1950X in our Extremist tier. The 1920X stays put till the 2920X get released (rumoured to be in October). If the 2950X has not been released in your country, then the 1950X will remain till it is available.
One of the more interesting announcements by AMD this year at CES was the confirmed upcoming release of Zen+, the successor to the Zen platform—and their accompanying new motherboard chipset, X470. Let’s take a look at these big announcements from AMD, and see what this means for first-generation Ryzen and Threadripper owners!
