According to another rumor which has its roots in the the SiSoft Sandra database yet again, AMD is busy working on a cut-down version of AMD's Ryzen 2000 series. This product appear to be part of an upcoming Lenovo mobile system.


The Athlon 200GE APU has been spotted in the SiSoftware benchmark database showing us a few more details about the upcoming chip. The engineering sample spotted on the database features two cores with four threads, clocking at 3.2GHz base clock. Furthermore the chip has 2MB of L2 cache and 4MB of L3 cache. At the moment there isn't any information on the Boost Clock frequency of this chip.

On the GPU side we find a Vega chip. The Athlon branding suggests that AMD does not want this product to be associated with Ryzen on the desktop market, due to its low specifications. According to OC3D, this APU could be a desktop version of the Ryzen 3 2200U mobile CPU. Like the Athlon 200GE, the Ryzen 3 2200U mobile chip comes with two cores and four threads. In addition they share a similar clock speed and the same amount of cache.

The upcoming Athlon 200GE could be a competitor for Intel's Pentium series and could bring AMD into the sub-100 Euro CPU market. We will surely keep an eye on it.
