The Ryzen 3 4100 is AMD's entry-level four-core AM4 desktop chip, built on the Zen 2 architecture with SMT for eight threads. It runs at 3.8 GHz base with a 4.0 GHz boost and a 65 W TDP, and it ships with a Wraith Stealth cooler. It suits budget builds, office PCs and light gaming where a discrete GPU does the graphics work. Against the Ryzen 5 3600 or the newer Ryzen 5 5600, it gives up two cores and a lot of multi-threaded headroom, so it is a stopgap rather than a long-term choice.

Owners treat the Ryzen 3 4100 as a competent budget chip that handles browsing, office work and esports gaming without fuss. Reviewers note it runs cool and is easy to install, but say it makes little sense over a Ryzen 5 3600 or 5600 unless the budget is tight.
