AMD Ryzen 5 1400 Linux Benchmarks: 27-Way CPU Comparison On Ubuntu
When running the Blender 3D software on the CPU, the Ryzen 5 1400 was ahead of the Core i3 7100 and running in line with a Core i5 6600K Skylake CPU.
Overall the Ryzen 5 1400 is a nice processor if you make use of enough multi-threaded applications/workloads to make use of its four cores and eight threads. With the single-threaded workloads, Intel's current processors tend to still dominate but if your use-cases involve making use of all available CPU cores/threads, the Ryzen 5 1400 is a very decent option with four cores / eight threads at $160 USD or less -- you can find the Ryzen 5 1400 in stock at Internet retailers like Amazon and NewEgg.
