AMD releases new Processor SKUs every few months and entirely new CPU generations about every year and a half.<\/p>\n<p>Which AMD Processor is best for you <strong>depends on your typical workloads<\/strong>. If you're a professional doing active work like Photo Editing or 3D Modeling or running AAA Games, a <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/single-core-performance-cpu-list\/\">CPU with high single-core performance<\/a> is more important than a CPU with many\u00a0cores.<\/p>\n<p>If you're running workloads, though, that can easily be parallelized, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/best-cpu-for-rendering\/\">3D Rendering<\/a>, Video Editing, Batch Processing, and Machine Learning, to name a few, an <strong>AMD CPU with<\/strong> <strong>a higher number of cores<\/strong> is the right pick for you.<\/p>\n<p>Most workloads, though, can use both fast single-core performance <strong><em>and<\/em> <\/strong>high multi-core performance, at least to a certain degree, and that's why I've created this handy little <strong>list of AMD CPUs in order of Performance (single <em>AND<\/em> multi-core)<\/strong> that you can sort to your

Both the AMD Ryzen 3 3100 and 3300X lead the Performance \/ Dollar Chart, given their very reasonable pricing.<\/p>\n<p>This is not to say everyone should be buying a Ryzen 3. They are somewhat limited in overall performance and have fewer cores than might be required for your workloads, but they are a great pick for many low-level general productivity tasks.<\/p>\n<p>If your budget is limited but you still need more performance than a Ryzen 3 offers, the Ryzen 5 7600X and Ryzen 5 5600X are two of the best all-rounder CPUs for most workloads and games. If you're willing to spend some more, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amd.com\/en\/products\/cpu\/amd-ryzen-9-5900x\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5900X 12-Core CPU<\/a> and <a class=\"thirstylink\" title=\"AMD Ryzen&#x2122; 9 7900X 12-Core, 24-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor\" href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/recommends\/amd-ryzen-9-7900x-12-core-24-thread-unlocked-desktop-processor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noindex noopener noreferrer\">7900X<\/a> pack some serious performance if your workloads can make use of more cores.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the best AMD CPU for the money depends on your workloads, requirements, and, of course, your available budget.<\/p>\n<p>Let's take a look at the best CPU within certain price-ranges:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_AMD_Processor_under_500\"><\/span>Best AMD Processor under 500$<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After recent considerable price cuts, AMD's best-performing CPU under 500$ is the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (closely followed by the Ryzen 7 7700X). At just 450$, the 12-Core CPU is a powerhouse of a CPU that'll run any high-end workloads without any issues.<\/p>\n<p>With a base clock of 3.7GHz and a boost of up to 4.8GHz, the Ryzen 9 sports 24 Threads at a power draw (TDP) of 105W.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_AMD_CPU_under_400\"><\/span>Best AMD CPU under 400$<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X is the best CPU you can buy for under 400 dollars.<\/p>\n<p>The 8 Cores and 16 Threads clock at 4.5GHz base and 5.4GHz boost (We've written an article <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/cpu-base-clocks-vs-boost-clocks\/\">explaining base and boost clocks here<\/a>). The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X is manufactured on TSMC's 5NM node, making it extremely power efficient at 105W TDP.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_AMD_CPU_under_200\"><\/span>Best AMD CPU under 200$<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The AMD Ryzen 5 3600 and 3600X are AMD's best CPUs for under 200 dollars. If you can find it below 200$, the 5600X is the newer generation successor to these CPUs with considerably higher single-core performance and power-efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>All Ryzen 5's are 6-Core CPUs. The 5600X's 12 Threads clock at 3.7GHz base and up to 4.6GHz boost.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_AMD_CPU_has_the_most_Cores\"><\/span>Which AMD CPU has the most Cores?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Currently, the AMD Threadripper 3990X (<a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/amd-threadripper-3990x-review\/\">Review<\/a>) and PRO 3995WX both have 64 Cores \/ 128 Threads at their disposal.<\/p>\n<p>On the Server-side, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amd.com\/en\/shop\/de\/Server%20Processors?f%5B0%5D=core_count%3A64\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Epyc 7713P, 7H12, 7702P and 7742<\/a>, too have 64 Cores that are clocked at varying frequencies and are rated at different TDPs.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_fastest_AMD_CPU\"><\/span>What is the fastest AMD CPU?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This depends on the definition of &#8220;fast&#8221;. The highest multi-core performance is held by AMD's highest-clocking, highest core-count CPUs, such as the Threadripper 3990X.<\/p>\n<p>The highest single-core performance is held by the Ryzen 9 7950X.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Ryzen_7_better_than_Ryzen_5\"><\/span>Is Ryzen 7 better than Ryzen 5?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes.

You can only compare CPUs within the same generation and brand to each other by their frequency. Between generations and brands, you have to take IPC, Power Draw, Manufacturing Node and other factors into consideration to truly find the best CPU for your needs.<\/p>\n<p>It's best to rely on benchmarks and real-world tests.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Ryzen_better_than_Intel\"><\/span>Is Ryzen better than Intel?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It depends on your needs and at what time you're comparing the two. Both AMD and Intel have an excellent product line-up, but they release new SKUs every few months and every 1.5 years or so they release an entirely new generation of CPUs that usually takes back the crown from the competition for some time.<\/p>\n<p>Check out our regularly updated <a href=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/intel-core-vs-amd-ryzen\/\">AMD Ryzen vs Intel Core article here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Over_to_you\"><\/span>Over to you<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I hope this AMD CPU List in order of performance helped you get closer to picking the right CPU for your needs.
