AMD - Ryzen 5 5500 3.6 GHz Six-Core AM4 Processor

Designed for socket AM4 motherboards using the powerful Zen 3 architecture, the 7nm 5th generation Ryzen processor offers significantly improved performance compared to its predecessor. With a base clock speed of 3.6 GHz and a max boost clock speed of 4.2 GHz in addition to 16MB of L3 Cache, the Ryzen 5 5500 is built to deliver the power needed to smoothly handle tasks ranging from content creation to immersive gaming experiences. You can boost performance further by overclocking this unlocked processor. Other features include support for PCIe Gen 3 technology and 3200 MHz DDR4 RAM with compatible motherboards. This processor has a 65W TDP (Thermal Design Power) and includes a Wraith Stealth cooling solution. Please note that it does not have an integrated GPU, so a dedicated graphics card is required.

Note this is a 5600g with the built in graphics disabled so this shares all the same limitations. Less cache, slower PCI-E slots etc. This isn't a bad price or a bad processor but past deals have been as low as $80 and deals on the 5600 or 5600g have been pretty close to this price too. Not a bad option for someone upgrading from an earlier ryzen system where the MB probably doesn't even support faster PCI-E slots but you can probably get this cheaper or a better processor for a similar price if you wait.

Edit

Looks like amazon has this cheaper if want this processor. $86.99 after coupon currently.

Awesome timing. I just ordered a 5600G this morning for ~$125 on amazon. I have a dedicated GPU so by cancelling my amazon order and getting this I saved $25. Thanks OP!

And then cancelled the BB order and reordered from amazon for even more savings. Thanks kpb321

PS the amazon link didn't work, but i found it here: https://www.amazon.com/AMD-5500-1...B09VCJ171S
