That one, though, like the rest of the Ryzen desktop CPUs that don't end in "G," lacks built-in graphics processing and devotes the whole die to CPU affairs. The Ryzen 5 3400G is from AMD's latest third-generation Ryzen CPU family, but it's a bit different than most of the pack. The RX Vega 11 and even the RX Vega 8 outclass their Intel counterparts when it comes to playing 3D-heavy games. Works with inexpensive AM4 motherboards (that have a current BIOS). What are some good budget motherboards? 1. i9-9900K and ROG Maximus XI Hero Z390 Motherboard; 2.

Posted in Peripherals, By Intel generally includes a stock fan, too (except with its unlocked "K" processors and the high-end Core X-Series chips), and neither this chip nor its Intel Core i5 counterpart requires overly advanced cooling capabilities. AMD includes an able, attractive cooling fan in the retail box with its third-generation CPUs, including the Ryzen 5 3400G. Here's a cheat sheet of all the new-for-2019 desktop Ryzens... Multithreading can boost performance when running modern CPU-intensive applications like software that transcodes video or renders 3D imagery. Those that cost several hundred dollars have much larger caches; most of AMD's other third-gen Ryzen chips have combined cache sizes above 35MB.

It's set up a bit differently than AMD's offering, with a slightly higher list price ($182), a slightly larger cache (9MB), and more physical computing cores (six).

Started 1 hour ago The Ryzen 5 3400G's $50 premium over the $99 Ryzen 3 3200G also gets you slightly higher clock speeds. If you are building a high-end overclocking machine, you are good to go with this motherboard. Still, both of these results are better than the cheaper Ryzen 3 3200G's time, and vast improvements over the 40-plus minutes that the light-hitting Celeron G4920 took. Keep on reading to see which 2020 CPU-Motherboard combo will best fit your particular needs. The Ryzen 5 3400G was happy to run at my usual 3466MHz, but the Ryzen 5 2400G would only hit 3200MHz. The Ryzen 5 3400G is compatible with most AM4-socket motherboards, though earlier-gen models may require a BIOS update; make sure what board you're buying is ready for third-generation Ryzen out of the box. isn't the 2400G cheaper? Don't be misled by the "Vega" nomenclature, though, which is shared with AMD's previous generation of high-end discrete graphics cards (for example, the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64). I was originally planning on building a 2400g build but then the 3400g came out for about the same price, so I decided to buy that instead.

The Ryzen 5 3400G far outperformed the other CPUs on the 3DMark Night Raid game simulation. The same can be said of the Ryzen 3 3200G, but you're giving up a bit of performance across the board by choosing it in return for saving just $50.
