AMD Ryzen 3 4100 Quad-Core AM4 Processor - 3.8GHz, 65W
The AMD Ryzen 3 4100 is a 4-core processor for budget-conscious builders pairing it with a discrete graphics card for gaming and everyday computing. With a 65W power envelope and bundled cooler, it suits small-form-factor systems and users who want low heat output and modest electricity draw.
Why this product
4 cores, 8 threads, up to 4.0 GHz
Delivers smooth frame rates in popular games when paired with a discrete GPU, and handles multithreaded workloads without bottlenecking mid-range graphics cards.
65W TDP with included cooler
Low power consumption and thermal output make it ideal for compact cases and systems where cooling budget is tight. The Wraith Stealth cooler is included in the box.
Unlocked for overclocking
Precision Boost 2 and Precision Boost Overdrive allow manual tuning to extract extra performance if you have cooling headroom.
DDR4-3200 memory support
Works with standard DDR4 RAM at speeds up to 3200 MHz across two memory channels.
3-year manufacturer warranty
AMD backs this processor with a standard 3-year warranty on defects.

- Requires DDR4 memory; DDR5 boards are not compatible.
Best for
- Budget gaming builds with mid-range discrete graphics cards
- Small-form-factor and low-power systems where thermal headroom is limited
- Everyday multitasking, web browsing, and office work
- Overclocking enthusiasts on a tight budget
Trade-offs
- No integrated graphics. Buyers without a discrete GPU will see no display output.
- 4 cores only. Heavy content creators working with 4K video, 3D rendering, or large datasets may find it limiting compared to higher-core-count competitors.
- Entry-level performance tier. High-refresh competitive gaming above 100 FPS depends heavily on GPU choice; this processor will not drive flagship graphics cards to their full potential.
With 4 cores and 8 processing threads the Ryzen 3 4100 processor delivers incredible productivity and gaming performance when paired with a discrete graphics card.
