    The speed at which the processor operates in everyday use.

    During the execution of demanding applications (e.g. games), the frequency may automatically increase up to the Maximum Processor Frequency.

  • Cores

    The natural individual processing units that the processor has. The more cores a processor has, the more efficient it is in running multiple applications simultaneously. For simple use, 4 cores are sufficient, while for gaming and video processing, at least 6 are recommended.

  • Socket

    The processor socket type.

    The motherboard we choose should have the same socket in order for the processor to "fit in".

  • Maximum CPU Speed

    The maximum processor frequency is the frequency that the processor can reach when executing demanding applications that use one core. Generally, when running demanding applications (e.g. games), the frequency can automatically increase up to the Maximum Processor Frequency depending on the number of cores in use. (the fewer cores are active, the closer they can operate to the maximum frequency)

  • Unlocked

    Ability to change the processor clock settings to achieve higher operating frequency (overclocking).

  • Cache Memory

    Cache is a very fast memory that acts as an intermediary between the processor and RAM. It stores data that is frequently useful to the processor for faster access.

Description

Description

The AMD Ryzen 5 5500GT processor is based on the Zen 3 (2024) microarchitecture. It features 6 cores with 12 Threads. More cores provide increased power for programs that take advantage of the presence of a larger number of cores. Threads allow the processor to run multiple applications simultaneously, completing tasks faster. Its maximum frequency is 4.4 GHz.

Cache Memory

The Cache memory it incorporates is 16 MB. Cache memory is a very important feature as the larger it is, the less time it takes for the processor to retrieve data from the computer's main memory, which significantly increases performance.

Socket AM4

It features the Socket AM4 and will need to be hosted on a motherboard with the corresponding Socket. It is an unlocked processor, which means it can be overclocked for greater performance. Finally, a heatsink is not included. You will need to purchase a separate heatsink for the processor, which is essential.

Suitable for working conditions

The Ryzen 5 5500GT is a powerful processor, making it ideal for work conditions where multiple applications and browser windows need to be open simultaneously. It also features an integrated graphics circuit that can be used for light gaming in case your system does not have a more powerful dedicated graphics card.

Zen 3 Microarchitecture

The processors of the "Zen 3" microarchitecture are designed for Gaming, offering up to 19% greater performance compared to previous generations, combined with up to 24% lower energy consumption. They feature higher bandwidth contributing to increased performance. The large Cache memory, double that of "Zen 2", promises minimal delays in core-to-core communication, something that Gamers will fully exploit. Indicatively, Gamers in 1080p games will experience an average performance increase of 26%.

    This review is about the packaging: Box

    Now AMD has brought the upgrade/evolution over the 5600G. The processor that came out in Q2 of 2021 seems to be stopping production, and its place will be taken by the 5600GT. I have both in my possession; they are identical with almost no difference in performance. In boost, this one is clocked a bit higher, but at idle, it is slightly lower. The 5600G often boosts to 4.4 without any reason when I have nothing like work on the PC. I haven't noticed the 5600GT doing anything. Obviously, with a good cooler (I use a Freezer 36), I don't see temperatures above 71 in a long stress test, and it's quite quiet since the fans run at 60-70%. Mainly at idle, it plays around 29C, with an average of about 38C with light workloads, which are very good values for an APU. (Ambient Temp 20-22C). I recommend it for a user who wants a budget processor for light gaming and doesn't have an extra 200 euros to spend on a RX6600.

    Honest processor, for light gaming with the integrated graphics card, if you put it on an old motherboard and it doesn't recognize it, the first thing you should try is to do a BIOS resetting and then anything else

    This review is about the packaging: Box

    It was installed on an Asus prime b450m-a ii motherboard which fortunately allows for BIOS upgrades without the presence of a CPU. It worked right away as both a CPU and a GPU. I had already checked that it is supported by this specific motherboard. Performance is identical to the RYZEN 5 5600G, meaning even light gaming is possible.

    Purchased for 110 euros, which I believe is worth it and then some since the package includes an AMD COOLER. Just know that when you order a boxed CPU (in a box), it must be shipped with a cooler, unlike those sold as tray which are just the processor alone.

    This review is about the packaging: Box

    Exactly for Greece 130 euros abroad it has 85 euros otherwise it is a fast processor. It has a cooler while on Skroutz it says you need to buy separately whatever Skroutz. Now ten months later 18/3/25 with a combination of rx 570 8 giga and ram 32giga at 3200hz I have to say that it is a decent processor I play cs 2 on medium at 140fps and on low 178 to 195 fps comfortably PUBG with ultra graphics at 65fps medium at 85fps on a 1080p 75hz screen.
