About this product
The AMD Ryzen 5 5600 is a six-core, twelve-thread Zen 3 processor for the AM4 platform, and it remains one of the most sensible upgrades for anyone with an existing AM4 motherboard. It runs at 3.5 GHz with boost up to 4.4 GHz, carries 32MB of L3 cache and is rated at 65W.
That large cache is a big part of why it plays games well: data a game needs again soon stays close to the cores. Paired with a mid-range graphics card it suits a mainstream gaming PC, and it handles streaming, office work and photo editing without fuss.
There is no graphics unit on this chip, so a graphics card is required to get a picture. AMD includes the Wraith Stealth cooler, which is adequate at stock settings; a tower cooler makes the system quieter during long sessions. The processor is unlocked if you want to experiment with Precision Boost Overdrive.
Compatibility is broad. Supported chipsets include A520, B550 and X570 as well as the older B450, X470, B350 and X370. Boards on the older chipsets usually need a BIOS update before they run this processor, so update the board before you swap chips, or check its support list. Memory is DDR4, ideally two matching modules in dual channel. PCIe Gen 4 is available on boards whose chipset supports it, such as B550 and X570.
For a budget gaming build, or to give an older Ryzen system a second life, the 5600 offers a lot for very little complexity.
