“Is this the standard 6 core ryzen 5 chip? The listing states that this is only 4 cores. This seems really overpriced even at the sale price for a chip from a few years ago. And it its a 4 core chip this would be something similar to an intel i3?”

Hey Dan, This IdeaPad Slim 3 features an entry-level, value Ryzen chip, the AMD Ryzen™ 5 40 processor with 4 cores and 8 threads (2.8 base / 4.3GHz max), a CPU that provides great performance for everyday tasks, but keeps pricing competitive in the climate of elevated commodity costs increases across the computing space. To answer the latter, it depends on the model processor in question, as there are many configurations with different core counts, clock speeds, and wattage output.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You are vastly oversimplifying the process of evaluating CPUs. The number of cores is no measure. This one is roughly equivalent to my Intel Core i5-8400 CPU @ 2.80GHz, which has six cores and threads and is about 7 years old. It also has a better integrated GPU. But feel free to spend more money on more cores, if that is what you want.
