I was so excited for Zen 3's launch and the Ryzen 5000 series desktop CPUs, primarily for the sweet promise of much improved single core performance to bolster Ryzen's already great multi-core performance. AMD definitely caught me off-guard by claiming more performance than I had even imagined possible! Its so fast it can beat an older dual-core i5 5200U at 100% with just a single core! Then there's Big Navi...which AMD kind off just added in at the end as a second thought, and the performance claims might just be why.
