Excellent budget CPU – reliable and still going strong
I've used this Ryzen 5 5500 in a budget PC build and it has proven to be an excellent little processor. With 6 cores and 12 threads, it provides plenty of performance for everyday computing and works very well in a budget gaming or general-purpose system when paired with a suitable graphics card. More importantly, it has proven reliable over time. The system has been in regular use and the CPU is still running perfectly with no stability issues. It's also relatively easy to cool and doesn't require an expensive cooling setup, which helps keep the overall cost of an AM4 build down. AM4 may no longer be AMD's newest platform, but if you're building or upgrading an affordable AM4 system, the Ryzen 5 5500 still offers a lot of performance for the money.

Great Affordable CPU and CPU Fan
Very good CPU at an affordable price. Used it to build my budget PC and has worked very well. The addition of the CPU fan makes the installation process very easy, as a previous CPU fan that I tried to install was very difficult and caused my old CPU pins to bend, which made them defective.

Overclock yapıyorsun 4.6ghz oluyor
2k gaming ve video edit için aşırı ucuz ve aşırı güçlü bir seçenek 5600x e gerek yok yeterince stabil OC yapabilirseniz harika çalışıyor. r23 multicore 11346, singlecore 1467 alıyorum. Prime24 ile 2 gün stabil çalışabiliyor. AMD'nin gizli roketi.

Nice for the price
Build a nice computer for less then a 1000$ ca that still kicks aside my old computer that I build 12 years ago at the price of 2500$ Take note, the price mention above for the new computer is with AMAZON specials at the moment of purchase. (November 2024) Now, like I was saying for much less then a 1000$ using those components Motherboard ASUS Prime B550 plus. Power supply Thermaltake Smart BX1 750W Bronze SLI/Crossfire Ready. RAM Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 X 16) at 3200mhz CORSAIR 3000D Airflow Mid-Tower PC Case – 2X SP120 Elite Fans – Four-Slot GPU Support. Processor AMD Ryzen 5 5500 6-Core, 12-Thread Unlocked FAN included. May have to chip around 50$ for a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card if you don’t have it already. Kingston 480 gb SSD. Graphic card GeForce GTX 1650 4gb Licence for Win 11 PRO, shop and find at different price, you only need a Digital license to make this machine work fine. Mine costed 125$ ca. This kit support without any problem Win 11 24H2 latest release almost a plug and play. (Installed it on the 22 Nov 2024 and never seen that before not one issue.) I'm not a hardcore gamer but I love my dead island, day light, etc... level of games and yes that system will support those and maybe more demanding games (Do your DD to find out, like I said I'm a mild gamer) no problem even projected on a 10 feet X 5 feet wall. So, my goal was to try at best not to invest my saving and have a nice machine that is functional for what I need, and not to flex (Look at me I got a machine that goes around Jupiter and back but it costed me 5000$) LOL You could also overclock that system with a little bit of knowledge, and the bios readiness unlock the RAM which is set to nominal 2133 or so to full values (Mine are 3200 MHz) at a click away, Rams have a build in profile to facilitate its full profile. And do not forget that you have room for expending for a bigger graphic card, RAM and a bit more room for the processor then what I used. So this was my quest on AMAZON to get something more recent then the Asus P8Z77- deluxe (2012) which is still fine but does not support win 11 due to TPM and for the hardcore gamers Steam do not support any longer the win 7, 8, 8.1 and it is just a question of time before win 10 will no longer be supported by Steam. Yes, I forgot, I can install win 11 on the Asus P8Z77 deluxe (2012) with the removal of the TPM notification but at the long run it keeps bugging more often then I care for, so, for all my software that I have for editing video, creating music etc..... Win 7 on this Asus P8Z77 deluxe works fine, and I know that win 10 will support my old system, so I will experiment more on the subject. In conclusion I got something that kick for less then 1000$ ca and I build it my self from A to Z without any problem (Plug and play I would say) and will last some years without having to cash out money left and right. Keep searching there are nice specials on AMAZON. hope this help a bit Den.
