AMD has just dropped the price on its trio of Ryzen 8000G CPUs, which are the company’s chips with powerful integrated graphics intended to power small gaming PCs without the need for a separate graphics card. This AMD CPU price cut sees between $20 and $30 taken off the MSRPs of the 8700G, 8600G, and 8500G.
These aren’t the sort of AMD CPUs we’d normally pick out as the best gaming CPU options, as most of the time we’d recommend buying a CPU with basic integrated graphics (or none at all) and a separate graphics card, to get the best gaming performance. However, if you’re looking to build a really tiny gaming PC, or you just want to build a general-purpose mini PC that can do some occasional light gaming, then these CPUs are ideal.
