How to use it

  1. Compare cores and threads — they matter most for video editing, 3D and multitasking.
  2. For gaming, clock speed and L3 cache matter more — especially on AMD X3D chips.
  3. Check the socket and supported memory: will the CPU fit your board.
  4. To add a third processor, press “Change models or add a third”.
