With the AMD Ryzen 4000 series CPUs now in crosshairs of some looking to build a new system – the newly-introduced Ryzen 3000XT could give cause of reconsideration as it offers some serious value with higher boost frequencies with the same Zen 2 7nm architecture.Â

New to the line-up of processors are the Ryzen 9 3900XT, Ryzen 7 3800XT and Ryzen 5 3600XT – these are essentially slightly higher-clocked versions of their regular Ryzen 3000X counterparts. Â
