Launch price in today's dollars

The Ryzen 3 3300X launched at $120 in 2020. Adjusted with the U.S. Consumer Price Index, that is about $153 in 2026 dollars (7-month average), a 27% rise over 6 years. At its launch price that is 69 Blender points per $100.

Method: launch price × (CPI 2026 average ÷ CPI 2020 average), calendar-year averages of BLS series CPIAUCSL. 2026 covers 7 months so far.

Blender rendering score

Median score 83 (middle half of runs 79–88) across 19 community runs on Blender 4.x with the CPU backend. That is #208 of 290 desktop processors in our dataset with a score, and #13 of 14 in the Ryzen 3000 series.

This is a rendering benchmark (samples per minute over the monster, junkshop and classroom scenes), not a gaming benchmark. It says how fast the part renders in Blender's Cycles engine and nothing about frame rates. Source: Blender Open Data, CC0, snapshot 2026-09-06.
