I find it kind of sad how the Athlon brand has been relegated to old slow CPUs like this. I understand Ryzen is the bigger, more recognized name now, but I always thought having the low end Ryzen CPUs (4 cores and under, maybe without HT) branded as Athlon was kind of cool. Just wish they'd refresh the lineup with some Zen 3 or 4 based chips.
They'd do it if they had enough low core count chips to sell in volume.
