AMD

With no representative to compete in the entry-level market, it's easy to see why AMD has kept the Athlon 3000G alive after all these years. It might sound shocking, but the Athlon 3000G is one of the few processors that haven't lost its value since its debut. The Athlon 3000G launched at $49 four years ago, and the Zen chip still retails at the same MSRP. The price varies depending on the stock, as third-party sellers often jack up the price tag to around $65 or over $100.

it depreciates with inflation. crazy. no wonder they're keeping them in production and refreshing the packaging.
