Question Ryzen 5 2400g or 3400g

[Neeraj_kr]

According to tomshardware (https://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-ryzen-3000-3400g-apu-picasso,39555.html) should i wait for 3400g or go for 2400g. Note that I'm building a budget build rn with no gpu and might add one after a year or so.
Thanks in advance.

Depends on how quickly you want the build, from the looks of it the 3400G isn't going to be released on July 7 with the other 3rd Gen Ryzen. Also the iGPU is the same as the 2400G (Vega 11, no Navi) so I wouldn't expect a big leap in gaming performance especially if your using the iGPU for awhile. Honestly, I'd get the 2400G now if you need a system and if your in the US you should still be able to get The Division 2 Gold Edition & World War Z with the purchase.

Also since your not getting a dedicated GPU for awhile be sure to pair it with 2x8gb @3200mhz on a B450 board to get the most performance from it. You'll want to overclock both the CPU & iGPU as well.

doubt the 3400g will be that much faster, and its gonna be a 4/8 core just the same, in the end it should be all about the price... you're on a budget, get the cheaper one unless the gap is small

I'm not sure we'll see the next gen APUs anytime soon... So I'm not entirely sure if waiting would be a good idea if they won't be launched with the new Ry3K non-APU CPUs.

If they are, then wait.

Cheers!

If you need the PC quickly, then go for the 2400G, it's a very good card and AMD has a promotion where you can get World War Z and The Division 2 (both epic games store exclusive) with it.
