About the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600X is a 6-core (12-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q4 2020 with a suggested retail price of $299. It is part of AMD's Ryzen 5 lineup, which is based on the Zen 3 microarchitecture. The 5600X is compatible with AMD Socket AM4 motherboards and is fabricated on TSMC's 7 nm manufacturing process. It is bundled a Wraith Stealth cooler.

Memory and Cache

The Ryzen 5 5600X supports DDR4 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 5600X has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 32 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Ryzen 5 5600X features 6 total cores which can process 12 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3.7 GHz, and it can boost up to 4.6 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is unlocked, enabling overclocking for those seeking to push the CPU's performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Ryzen 5 5600X does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The Ryzen 5 5600X has the 75th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 53.12% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D. Its 19,649 score and $299 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 65.72. This is the 27th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Perf. Physics benchmark.
