As we all know Intel has been the best manufacturer or has some people like to call it #1 in CPU wars. When asked users they said Intel is much better in many ways especially in gaming areas as well as multi-threading. Whereas AMD Ryzen has been in second place for many years especially in gaming areas. But this could change now with AMD introducing its new Ryzen 3000 series.

Ryzen 3000 series uses a Zen 2 architecture with a 7nm process technology. With this Ryzen might even beat Intel in this war of CPUs.

For those who don't know what is Zen 2. Zen is the first generation of AMD Ryzen processors which at first used a 14nm process technology and Zen 2 it is the 3rd generation of the Zen microarchitecture which uses 7nm process technology and it is attached to upcoming Ryzen 3000 series.

AMD has officially introduced 6 Gen 3 Ryzen processor along with 2 Ryzen 3000 desktop APU's

Ryzen 9 3950X—16 Core/32 Thread, 3.5GHz to 4.7GHz, 72MB cache, 105W TDP, $749

Ryzen 9 3900X—12 Core/24 Thread, 3.8GHz to 4.6GHz, 70MB cache, 105W TDP, $499

Ryzen 7 3800X—8 Core/16 Thread, 3.9GHz to 4.5GHz, 36MB cache, 105W TDP, $399

Ryzen 7 3700X—8 Core/16 Thread, 3.6GHz to 4.4GHz, 36MB cache, 65W TDP,

$329

Ryzen 5 3600X—6 Core/12 Thread, 3.8GHz to 4.4GHz, 35MB cache, 95W TDP,

$249

Ryzen 5 3600—6 Core/12 Thread, 3.6GHz to 4.2GHz, 35MB cache, 65W TDP,

$199

Ryzen 5 3400G—(Zen+) 4 Core/8 Thread, 3.7GHz to 4.2GHz, 6MB cache, Vega 11 Graphics at 1400MHz, 65W TDP,

$149

Ryzen 3 3200G—(Zen+) 4 Core/4 Thread, 3.6GHz to 4.0GHz, 6MB cache, Vega 8 Graphics at 1250MHz, 65W TDP,

$99

AMD is setting expectations quite high with Zen 2, claiming an average 15 percent IPC improvement relative to Zen+. That 15 percent improvement comes from all the above architectural updates, and combined with higher clock speeds and core counts, performance should be a significant step up from the Ryzen 2000 series. But it's not just about the hardware, as some software changes will also play a role.

Intel has made some bold statements about performance, going so far as to say

"Come beat us in gaming if you can."

However, it seems like AMD might beat Intel in the non-gaming matchup with 12-core going up against 8-core, 8-core/16-thread going up against 8-core/8-thread, and 6-core/12-thread squaring off against 6-core/6-thread.
