AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core 12-Thread Desktop Processor - 3.7 GHz Base, 4.6 GHz Boost, 65W TDP, Wraith Stealth Cooler Included - 100-100000065BOX

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (100-100000065BOX) is a 6-core, 12-thread Zen 3 processor built on 7nm, delivering a 3.7 GHz base and up to 4.6 GHz boost with 35MB total cache and a low 65W TDP. Thanks to Zen 3’s 19% IPC uplift and unified CCX design, it offers outstanding gaming and productivity performance, often matching or beating higher-end CPUs. This retail boxed version includes the quiet AMD Wraith Stealth cooler for plug-and-play installation. Fully unlocked for overclocking, supports PCIe 4.0, dual-channel DDR4-3200, and works on 500/400/300-series AM4 motherboards (BIOS update may be required on older boards). No integrated graphics – requires discrete GPU. Remains one of the best-value high-performance CPUs for gaming rigs and workstations.
