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.

Athlon 3000G still is way faster than an Athlon 64 X2 or Athlon XP... ;)

Hey, my Athlon XP 2500+ ran Half Life 2 like a champ!
