[SOLVED] Athlon 200GE vs Athlon 3000G?

[mohan_kumar]

The PC is for office use. In my country (India) the Athlon 200GE is $50.21 and Athlon 3000G is $60.26. Is Athlon 3000G worth the extra $10? Or should I use those $10 in some other parts?

Depends what office is doing but 3000g is newer and should have a bit of edge.

If it's not for gaming, and $10 difference is a lot of money for your budget, get the 200G. The 3000G would make more sense if it was also for gaming as it's a bit faster depending on the game.

Both are slow compared to even the R3-2200...

I'd try hard to get the R3-3300X or R5-1600AF

But its for Accounting office works like Excel, Word, Browsing, TALLY (Accounting Software), etc.

3000G have unlocked CPU, IGP dan DRAM Ratio, but 200GE not. With B350 Board, you can overclock the CPU for more performance. The rest they perform similar.

Is the difference in price enough for you to justify buying the 3000G? If not, then the cheaper CPU will work just as well for office programs that don't require heavy computing or 3D rendering. Even then you would want a better CPU.

The actual performance difference between the CPU's isnt much and if you need to overclock the CPU to get more performance, you would want a faster CPU than either options.

... and if you need to overclock the CPU to get more performance, you would want a faster CPU than either options.

I am buying MSI A320M-A Pro Max Motherboard. So, I am not going to overclock the CPU.

Then 200GE will be enough.
