- AMD launched a new CPU featuring the lowest maximum boost clock in comparison with three other X3D models in the Ryzen 5000 Series.
- The AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D has a base clock speed of 3 GHz and a maximum boost clock of up to 4 GHz.
- Models 7 5700X3D, 5 5600X3D and 7 5800X3D have maximum boost clocks of 4.1 GHz, 4.4 GHz and 4.5 GHz, respectively.
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) added a new gaming CPU to the lineup featuring the lowest maximum boost clock in comparison with three other X3D models in the Ryzen 5000 Series.
Manufactured using TSMC’s 7 nm FinFET process for the CPU cores, the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D is based on the Zen 3 architecture.
This processor features six CPU cores and supports simultaneous multithreading, offering a total of 12 threads. It has a base clock speed of 3 GHz and a maximum boost clock of up to 4 GHz, while models 7 5700X3D, 5 5600X3D and 7 5800X3D have maximum boost clocks of 4.1 GHz, 4.4 GHz and 4.5 GHz, respectively.
The chip features a 384 KB L1 cache, 3 MB L2 cache and a 96 MB L3 cache, with a default thermal design power (TDP) of 105 W.
The CPU’s die sizes are 74 mm² and 125 mm², so it fits into the AM4 socket and is compatible with a wide range of chipsets, including X570, X470, X370, B550, B450, B350 and A520. The processor supports PCI Express 4.0 and offers 24 native PCIe lanes, 20 of which are usable. It also includes support for NVMe boot and RAID configurations 0, 1 and 10
Memory support includes dual-channel DDR4 with speeds up to 3200 MT/s for typical configurations and up to 128 GB of UDIMM.
It also features support for NVMe boot and RAID configurations (RAID 0, 1 and 10), along with two native SATA ports and four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports. However, it does not support native USB 3.2 Gen 1 or USB 2.0.
The AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D supports AMD StoreMI, AMD Ryzen Master Utility and AMD Ryzen VR-Ready Premium. This CPU works with Windows 11 and 10 (64-bit), as well as RHEL and Ubuntu in x86 64-bit versions.
