The entry level Matisse CPU, comes with 6 cores and 6 threads, 3.6GHz base clock and 4.1GHz boost clock, 16MB of L3 cache which makes this CPU slightly weaker than Ryzen 5 3500X and Ryzen 5 3600. At $150, this CPU offered excellent value for performance as well as new PCIe 4.0 (but unnecessary for budget users) for those who thrives in very high Sequential R/W but unfortunately aren't sold for consumer.
