Verdict

The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 3300U is a mobile processor based on the 12nm Zen+ 'Picasso' architecture, featuring 4 physical cores and 4 threads with a base clock speed of 2.1 GHz and a maximum boost frequency of 3.5 GHz. Designed primarily for thin, mid-range business laptops, its main pros include integrated Radeon Vega 6 graphics (1200 MHz) that outperform many contemporary competitors in light graphical tasks, a low 15W TDP for power efficiency, and enterprise-grade PRO security features like full memory encryption. However, its main cons are the lack of Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT), which limits multitasking performance compared to chips with virtual threads, and its aging architecture that struggle with modern AAA gaming or intensive 4K video editing.
