About this deal
When X470 motherboards begin to roll out later this year, we’ll likely see even better power savings, not to mention performance.
Both models combine a quad-core "Zen" CPU with a "Vega" based integrated graphics core (iGPU), a dual-channel DDR4 integrated memory controller, and a platform I/O interface. Therefore, ECC and non-ECC memories are allowed, although the installed ECC memory will operate in non-ECC mode.That's a fine setup for Ryzen early adopters, but it's not very practical for budget desktops or all-in-one PCs that don't need a lot of graphics horsepower. The MSI B450-A Pro has a black circuit board with dark gray metallic heat sinks on the power supply and chipset. Tom's Hardware is part of Future US Inc, an international media group and leading digital publisher. While it doesn't change the CPU performance much, it causes about a 15-20 percent drop in gaming performance, and that should also be true of the 2200G when paired with budget RAM.
Like all Ryzen CPUs, you can overclock the Ryzen 3 2200G, and AMD makes it relatively easy to adjust many settings like clock speed, power, and memory clock speed using the Ryzen Master app (seen below).AMD's Ryzen APUs should also make for some potentially interesting light gaming laptops, though that's a whole different conversation. AMD Ryzen™ Processors with Radeon™ Vega Graphics are armed with some of the most advanced, powerful computing and graphics hardware available today, fused together in a single processor to deliver the high performance you need for demanding work and serious play, without compromise. You can hardly find any difference between the GTX 1650 and the GTX 1650 super when it comes to performance.
