AMD Ryzen 3 8300G Processor
The one Ryzen 3 model on this page is the AMD Ryzen 3 8300G, a Zen 4 desktop processor with 4 cores, 8 threads and a boost clock of up to 4.9 GHz. Its built-in Radeon 740M graphics drive a display without a separate graphics card, which suits office PCs, study machines and light gaming builds. It is rated at 65 W, comes with a cooler in the box, and AMD covers it with a 3 year warranty.
It uses the AM5 socket, so it needs an AM5 motherboard and DDR5 memory. Other Ryzen tiers are listed under AMD Processors.
