AMD Athlon PRO 300U
Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The AMD Athlon PRO 300U is a processor based on the Picasso (Zen+) architecture. Manufactured in a 12nm process, it was originally designed for mobile systems. This model was a reasonable choice for everyday use in 2019. It offers an integrated graphics unit, the AMD Radeon RX Vega 3 (Raven Ridge).

This GPU is perfectly adequate for all common multimedia applications and light office work. Energy efficiency is a key strength. This makes it a good option for portable computers. A 4 MB L3 cache and 38 GB/s memory bandwidth form a stable foundation. For basic tasks, it remains a reliable and viable option.

It is not intended for demanding games or complex computing tasks. Rather, its strength lies in providing solid performance for everyday computing. The AMD Athlon PRO 300U is undoubtedly an example of purposeful hardware.
  • Integrated Graphics (AMD Radeon RX Vega 3)
  • High Energy Efficiency
