Verdict
Our verdict on the Ryzen 3 PRO 1300
A four-core, four-thread Zen desktop CPU that's reliable for basic office work but feels slow with modern multitasking.
Get it if you need a cheap, reliable office CPU that won't break a sweat on basic multitasking and web work. Skip it if you want to game or edit video, because even a modern budget chip will run circles around this old quad-core.
Buy it if…
- You want a cheap office PC that just works for spreadsheets.
- You need a basic home server that sips power.
- You are building a low-budget PC for a kid's first gaming rig.
