AMD are great at selling junk. They pee in the well with fake comments, glorified cheerleaders on youtube and paid magazine reviews. My POS PC still crashes randomly. Everybody needs to call the rats out instead of letting them get away with it.

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.

OEM only unfortunately.
