Details of the Build This guide covers the AMD side of things and will only cost you about Php 30,000 unless price changes occur. Overview [table id=1896 /] Processor + Motherboard For the processor, we specifically have the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 (Zen 2 architecture) with 6 cores and 12 threads running on 3.6GHz base clock speed that can be boosted up to 4.2GHz (65W TDP). Been using the Phenom x4 9950 CPU sent to me by AMD for over a month now and I have been doing some simple benchmarks with it. The Phenom X4 9950 is the latest and fastest among AMD's quad core series. You will notice the ones from AMD and Intel are already capable of supporting DDR3 RAMs. On the other hand, the newer ones by AMD offers single-core and dual-core CPUs with higher cache memory. Notice thought that TDP of the AMD chips are still way higher at 12watts; that's almost twice that of the ones from Intel so they should be some noticeable battery life differences between the two. Yesterday, while scouting around for that elusive Phenom II X4, I chanced upon this new processor SKU from AMD -- the Athlon 64 X2 7750 BE @ 2.7GHz.
