AMD Ryzen 5 3500X

The AMD RYZEN 5 3500X Matisse is suitable for PCs made for playing games or running performance-intensive software, such as graphic editors. The chip delivers 6 cores solid performance for all programs and computational operations courtesy to its 3,6 GHz clock speed. Under heavier load, the processor will automatically overclock to 4,1 GHz and further boost your PC performance. The so-called processor memory cache has a total capacity of 32 MB with a L3 cache and 3 MB with a L2 cache. The Processor uses 7 nm manufacturing technology, which is why it ranks among the most advanced chips on the market. The processor is compatible with motherboards with a AMD AM4 socket.

AMD RYZEN 5 3500X CPU and OC Options

The Processor utilises automatic overclocking to effectively manage power consumption and general processing load. If the system load rises, the processor will adjust the clock speed up to 4,1 GHz. The AMD Ryzen 5 Matisse allows you to readily regulate the base clock speed also through manual overclocking. It features an unlocked multiplier for it and is ready to handle heavy processing load. However, overclocking causes a higher TDP, which for the AMD RYZEN 5 3500X is 65 W. This processor model is equipped with an extra heatsink, though it's not suitable for for higher temperatures. If you want to OC, you will have to choose a different, sufficiently powerful cooling solution.

What More Can the AMD RYZEN 5 3500X Processor Do?

The AMD RYZEN 5 3500X CPU also includes virtualisation, which is an amazing thing to have. It allows you to run multiple virtual computers on one real PC if you have the VMware platform.
