Hardware virtualization is available on the Ryzen 3 4100, which greatly improves virtual machine performance.

The TDP of the AMD Ryzen 3 4100 is 65 watts, but the processor can also be operated in an energy-saving manner with lower TDPs down to 45 watts. Should you still have questions on choice between Ryzen 3 3100 and Ryzen 3 4100, ask them in Comments section, and we shall answer.Thanks to AMD Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) the core-count is effectively doubled, to 8 threads. Find out if AMD's Ryzen 5 7600 processor is good for gaming based on our evaluation and comparison in terms of core type, core count, frequencies, and cache capacity, along with its overclocking, PCIe, and DDR support.

Our chart of the max base frequency of the Ryzen 3 4100 CPU compared to other Intel and AMD CPU models. A CPU's base frequency refers to the clock speed at which its cores run under normal operating conditions. We evaluated AMD's Ryzen 3 4100 and compared it to others to determine which provides the best value as a gaming CPU.Remember that cache sizes often increase along with core counts, so if you want to increase your L3 cache, you may need to get a CPU with more cores. The new AMD chips came as part of the company's broader launch of seven new Ryzen 5000 models that aim to shore up its rankings in CPU benchmarks and retake its position on the Best CPUs for gaming list. We only publish benchmark results that have been created by us or that have been submitted by a visitor and then checked by a team member. This lower base frequency results in better performance than a CPU with a higher base frequency, which may not be able to sustain its boost frequency for long periods due to thermal throttling.

Games performance can improve as cache size increases, as it will reduce delays when retrieving commonly used game assets from memory. Check out my article, Choosing the Best CPU Cooler for AMD's Ryzen 3 4100 , for recommended coolers that can maintain these boost frequencies on the 4100. Similarly, we have experienced that professional tools depend on high single and multi-core boost frequencies to maximize their processing speed. Remember that cache sizes often increase with core counts, so if you want to increase your L3 cache, you may need to get a CPU with more cores. Your Gaming rig is secure with ASUS motherboard technology offering high levels of reliability, stability and compatibility.

The AMD Ryzen 3 4100 has 4 CPU cores of the same size which, thanks to the support of AMDs SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading) technology, can process 8 threads (two per CPU core) at the same time. A CPU with a lower base frequency may generate less heat under normal operating conditions, enabling it to boost some cores to higher frequencies while remaining within its thermal limits.
