I would suggest you go for the amd a12 lineup. Am4 socket and ddr4 + integrated graphics.Has anyone got the Ryzen 3 processors? Any good for office / basic creative work?
Tested the Ryzen 3 1300x with geforce 1050 mini. Played NFS Rivals at 1080p ultra with DR scan running for almost 500GB of music, some downloads going on and another NFS install in progress. No slowdown at all @ stock 3.5ghzHas anyone got the Ryzen 3 processors? Any good for office / basic creative work?

Motherboard vendors have begun pushing out BIOS updates for Ryzen motherboards using the AMD AGESA 1.0.0.6b revision and it's reported that it does resolve the "Performance Marginality Problem" affecting early Ryzen Linux customers.
The A12 APUs are old Bulldozer/Excavator cores, not the newer Zen architecture. They are not worth getting at all, and reviews indicate the same.I would suggest you go for the amd a12 lineup. Am4 socket and ddr4 + integrated graphics.
More than enough for the work he wants, and at low cost too.The A12 APUs are old Bulldozer/Excavator cores, not the newer Zen architecture. They are not worth getting at all, and reviews indicate the same.
Will the Ryzen chips work without graphics card? I dont want older ones.I would suggest you go for the amd a12 lineup. Am4 socket and ddr4 + integrated graphics.
I was in the same boat, I thought ryzen had igpu, sadly that's not the case.Will the Ryzen chips work without graphics card? I dont want older ones.
https://www.pcauthority.com.au/news/benchmarks-and-specs-leak-for-upcoming-ryzen-5-2500u-apu-473403Ryzen desktop CPUs dont have iGPU but prolly AMD will launch laptop/desktop ones (A series / whatever) with iGPU (vega mess right now) in the near future?
Is it available in India? The existing APU prices itself are not that great.More than enough for the work he wants, and at low cost too.
nope not yet available. A-12 9800 is listed for 109$ on newegg. With this you buy a good 350 mobo and you can upgrade to Ryzen later. Not sure about about upgrade path on G4560Ryzen APUs are scheduled for Q4 I think.

If cost is a concern, the G4560 is cheaper and better. Not sure how many will buy the A12 APU just so they can eventually upgrade to Ryzen before 2020.
