AMD Will Win Everything With This In a recent YouTube video titled AMD Will Win Everything With This, the discussion centered around exciting developments for AMD enthusiasts and tech enthusiasts alike. The video highlights the potential introduction of a new budget-friendly CPU: the Ryzen 5 3600 AF. This processor reportedly carries the performance of the Ryzen 5 5600 but at a much lower price point.
Key Highlights from the Video
- Ryzen 5 3600 AF Launch:
- Evidence from a Romanian retailer indicates that the Ryzen 5 3600 AF could be hitting the market. This CPU is said to offer similar performance to the Ryzen 5 5600 but at approximately $126 compared to its original launch price of around $200, making it a substantial deal for budget-conscious consumers.
- AMD’s Budget Strategy:
- The Ryzen 5 3600 AF would effectively replace the Ryzen 5 1600 AF as the go-to budget CPU, which was known for delivering excellent value. The Ryzen 5 1600 AF had already shown how AMD can provide better specs under the same name.
- Response to Consumer Needs:
- There’s a noticeable shift as AMD seems to be addressing mid-tier market concerns which had been criticized in the past. With the 3100 and 3300X lacking proper launch support and the late entry of the 4100, the potential of the 3600 AF appears to signal AMD's renewed focus on competitive pricing and specs.
Additional Insights

- Upcoming Tech Developments: Other topics included newly unveiled hardware, like the Kindle Scribe, which combines an e-reader with note-taking capabilities, and a teaser for Intel's forthcoming 13th gen CPUs.
