There is a split on integrated graphics as well, Yes on the Ryzen 3 4300G versus No on the Ryzen 3 PRO 1200. They differ on socket status too, End of Life on the Ryzen 3 4300G versus Mature on the Ryzen 3 PRO 1200. Release year is not the same on both, 2020 on the Ryzen 3 4300G versus 2017 on the Ryzen 3 PRO 1200. There is a split on igpu as well, Radeon Graphics on the Ryzen 3 4300G versus None on the Ryzen 3 PRO 1200. Smt enabled is not the same on both, Yes on the Ryzen 3 4300G versus No on the Ryzen 3 PRO 1200.
Who each one is for
The Ryzen 3 4300G suits mainstream desktop builds and everyday productivity, though it is not built for extreme overclocking (unless K/X-series) and workstation-class multi-threaded workloads. The Ryzen 3 PRO 1200 is the one to take for mainstream desktop builds and everyday productivity, though it is the wrong buy for extreme overclocking (unless K/X-series) and workstation-class multi-threaded workloads.
What Ryzen 3 4300G and Ryzen 3 PRO 1200 have in common
Where they agree, they agree completely, total cores, performance cores, efficiency cores, tdp and socket included, so the decision does not turn on any of those. They match on 8 further specifications as well.
