The AMD Ryzen™ 5 5500 is a mid-range processor designed to offer a balanced performance for everyday computing needs, including gaming, productivity tasks, and light content creation.
Manufactured using TSMC’s 7nm FinFET process, the Ryzen 5 5500 benefits from enhanced performance and power efficiency, contributing to lower heat output and improved battery life in compatible systems. Featuring 6 Cores and 12 Threads, it is well-suited for a range of tasks, providing a good balance between multi-core performance and single-core efficiency. It’s ideal for multitasking and moderately threaded applications. Base Clock Speed is 3.6 GHz and Max Boost Clock Speed is up to 4.2 GHz. These clock speeds ensure responsive performance in a variety of applications, from everyday tasks to more demanding workloads.
L2 Cache of 3 MB and L3 Cache of 16 MB helps reduce time of data access and improving the processor's ability to handle complex tasks efficiently. The 65W TDP means that the processor is relatively power-efficient, making it suitable for both desktop builds and small form-factor systems, with less demanding cooling requirements. It supports DDR4 memory up to 3200 MHz. This allows for sufficient memory bandwidth for gaming and productivity tasks, ensuring smooth performance.
The Platform Socket AM4 is compatible with a wide range of AM4 motherboards, providing flexibility and options for various system builds and upgrades. The processor comes with AMD’s Wraith Stealth cooler, which provides adequate cooling for typical use cases while maintaining a quiet operation.
The AMD Ryzen™ 5 5500 incorporates several advanced technologies to enhance its performance and user experience, notably AMD StoreMI Technology and AMD Ryzen™ VR-Ready Premium. AMD StoreMI Technology is designed to optimize system performance by combining the speed of an SSD with the capacity of an HDD into a single, easily managed drive. AMD Ryzen™ VR-Ready Premium ensures that the Ryzen 5 5500 meets the rigorous performance standards required for an optimal virtual reality (VR) experience.
