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.

APO performance uplift suggests that may not be accurate.

12600k owner. i'm so frustrated. big.Little has never delivered on the behavior they promised, and now i'm being locked out of the fix. forcing me over to windows11 was not a fix, it was just aggravation.

i early adopted the new arch because i really wanted to use an optane accelerator. intel quietly software locked 12th gen out of optane support, so when i built my system i spent an hour poring through the bios trying to figure out how to get it running and wondering why intel's web instructions weren't working for me.

overall it's been a pretty bad experience, and one intel curated for me. based on my 12600k experience i'll be very reluctant to adopt intel proprietary technologies in the future.
