The AMD Ryzen 5 5500 is a six-core desktop processor with twelve threads, built for the AM4 platform and well suited to home and office computers. Its base clock of 3.6 GHz can boost up to 4.2 GHz, giving smooth performance when several demanding applications run at the same time.

The chip belongs to the Ryzen 5000 series and is built on a 7 nm process with the Zen 3 architecture. It offers 3 MB of L2 cache and 16 MB of L3 cache, and its 65 W TDP keeps power consumption moderate. It supports DDR4 memory and is compatible with Windows 11.

This OEM version ships without a cooler, and the processor has no integrated graphics, so a separate graphics card is needed for display output. It is a good choice for buyers who want a capable, energy-efficient CPU to build or upgrade a PC.
