Accepted Answer

Yes, the AMD Ryzen 3 3100 has Matisse (Zen 2) cores.

This should be 99$ right?

Accepted Answer

Yes, that was the MSRP from AMD, but demand and lack of supply means sellers can charge a bit (or a lot) more if people are willing to pay for it.

Question 8

Is this like an Intel 7700K?

Accepted Answer

The 3300X is the one similar to the 7700K.  This one is slightly slower due to the reduced clock speed, and latency from the 2+2 internal ccx core design layout.
