AMD keeps AM4 platform on life support with 2020-era Zen 3 CPU — Ryzen 3 5100 surfaces, nine years after AM4 launch
AMD has unveiled the Ryzen 3 5100, a quad-core processor from the Zen 3-based Ryzen 5000G series without integrated graphics. The processor, with a 2020 copyright year, features a monolithic Cezanne die and is an OEM component. Confusion between the Cezanne and Vermeer series arises due to similar branding by AMD, but they differ in design and architecture. The Ryzen 3 5100 succeeds the Ryzen 3 4100, offering improvements in core architecture, clock speed, and cache size. Despite being an OEM processor, the Ryzen 3 5100 has likely been available in China for some time.
