Processor AMD Ryzen 5 5600G 3,9 GHz 6 cores 16 MB L3 socket AM4

AMD Ryzen™ 5000 Series desktop processors deliver high-performance computing for demanding games and multithreaded workloads such as 3D rendering, video encoding and software compilation. With up to 16 cores and 32 threads, boost clocks up to 4.9 GHz and up to 100 MB of cache, these processors provide substantial single‑ and multi‑threaded performance improvements for desktop builds.

Advantages

The Ryzen 5000 Series combines advanced 7nm "Zen 3" architecture efficiency with technologies like Precision Boost 2 and Precision Boost Overdrive to increase performance under load. Processors are compatible with many existing AMD 500, 400 and select 300 Series motherboards after a BIOS update, and support tuning via Ryzen™ Master. Additional software such as AMD StoreMI can be used to accelerate HDD storage performance.

Key specifications

• Cores and threads: up to 16 cores / 32 threads
