During the last few weeks we have talked a lot about the AMD Ryzen 3000XT processors. These new processors are the same as those launched a year ago, but with small frequency improvements. We are talking about a rehash of the company's already released processors, to complicate life for the Intel 10th Generation. A strange move, since the Ryzen 4000 should arrive in September-October.
The Ryzen 9 3900XT, Ryzen 7 3800XT and Ryzen 5 3600XT have been released, which differs from previous models in the frequencies. We are talking about an increase, in the best case, of 200MHz. As is logical, the performance improvement is minimal, so much so that we could question the meaning of these new processors.

These new AMD processors bring something interesting, and that is that the Ryzen 3000 come down in price. The only positive part is this, since for the rest, there is no noticeable improvement. Possibly TSMC has improved the 7nm lithographic process a bit and hence these new processors. The Ryzen 4000s would be based on Zen3 @ 7nm +, although the lithograph has yet to be confirmed.
Regarding the final data of the new Ryzen 3000XT:
| Ryzen 9 3900XT | Ryzen 7 3800XT | Ryzen 5 3600XT | |
| Architecture | Zen2@7nm | Zen2@7nm | Zen2@7nm |
| Cores / threads | 12/24 | 8/16 | 6/12 |
| Base frequency | 3.8GHz | 3.9GHz | 3.8GHz |
| Boost frequency | 4.7GHz | 4.7GHz | 4.5GHz |
| L3 cache | 64MB | 32MB | 32MB |
| TDP | 105W | 105W | 95W |
| Approximate price) | €550 | €440 | €270 |
We can see in the benchmark given by AMD, that the performance difference is minimal. Under Cinebench R20 Mononucleus the difference with respect to the Ryzen 3000X models is 4-5%. This in games can translate to 2-4FPS at best. The good part is that the Ryzen 3000 models come down quite a bit in price. The Ryzen 9 3900X goes on to cost € 480, the Ryzen 7 3800X goes on to cost € 325 and the Ryzen 5 3600X goes on to cost € 218.
