Today we are getting our first look at gaming performance on AMD Ryzen Raven Ridge APUs with the 2400G and 2200G processors, featuring integrated Vega graphics.
The Ryzen 5 2400G launches at $169 with four CPU cores and SMT, effectively giving it eight threads of processing power. It also features Vega 11 graphics on the same package, giving the user 11 compute units. This is perfect for the casual gamer or someone looking to build a system right now while waiting for high graphics card prices to stabilize.
Also, we have the Ryzen 3 2200G which is also a quad core processor, but without hyperthreading. The Vega graphics here is slightly cut down with just 8 compute units, but at $99 it is extremely impressive as it can still rock out on many modern and eSports games at 1080p with smooth 60fps performance. It also wouldn't be half bad for an HTPC build.
Enjoy!
