The highest multiprocessing performance in a mainstream computer.

The Ryzen 5 2600x is another big step for AMD. Improved algorithms boost performance in applications that take advantage of the processor's multiple cores, while the increased frequency and reduced memory latency provide the ultimate weapon for everyday demands.

  • CPU Speed

    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.

The Ryzen 5 2600x is another big step for AMD. Improved algorithms boost performance in applications that take advantage of the processor's multiple cores, while the increased frequency and reduced memory latency provide the ultimate weapon for everyday demands.

AMD StoreMI Technology

Software that combines the speed of an SSD with the capacity of an HDD. With Store MI, the two independent storage media create a single Drive that, with the intelligent management of the software, gives us incredible advantages resulting in cost savings.

If you have an AMD X399 series, 400 series, or 500 series chipset, you can download the AMD StoreMI software for free.

AMD Ryzen Master Utility

AMD Ryzen Master technology provides up to four profiles for storing custom configurations set by the user for both the CPU, integrated Radeon Vega graphics, and DDR4 memory. You can adjust active cores, integrated graphics frequency, and customize memory timings to optimize overall performance or fine-tune for your favorite applications.

SenseMI Technology

AMD's SenseMI technology is a set of learning and adaptation features that help the AMD Ryzen processor adjust its performance to you and your applications thanks to machine intelligence (MI).

    It is the best processor I have ever bought. I have had it for 3 years and it has never crashed on me. The only relatively negative thing is that the cooler struggles a bit in the summer. This processor is worth its money!!!

    It simply rocks...

    You give a small amount of money (compared to the equivalent Intel processors) and you get multiple times the value.
