Description

The processor AMD Ryzen 5 5500 is aimed at users who demand high performance in everyday tasks such as office work, multimedia, photo and video editing, and at the same time want to enjoy a gaming experience at medium or high graphics settings in games on a desktop computer. It is a processor with 6 cores and 12 threads (6-core/12-thread) and a clock speed of up to 4.2 GHz.

The processor does not have an integrated graphics card. This means that to have video output, you will need to use an additional discrete graphics card, which will connect to the system's motherboard via the appropriate slot, such as PCIe (PCI Express).

    I have it paired with an RX 6600 and it performs very well in the games I play, but it's better to go with a 3600x or a 5600 for the am4 socket

    It was purchased for 70 euros, so for the money, it is very good for budget gaming with an RX 6600. The only negative for me, who has a gen4 SSD, is that the processor is only up to gen3. For gen4, it is Ryzen 5 5600 and above (not Ryzen 5 5600g)

    I bought this processor about two years ago for around 130 euros. Despite having 6 cores, it is fast, especially for someone who wants a cheap and reliable processor. It hasn't given me any problems so far. It is definitely worth 100% of the money

    Excellent processor. With a cooler for 20 euros and with PBO -25 all cores, it reaches 10800 in Cinebench R23 at 55 watts, better than the stock 5600x I had at 80 watts. The only processor for value systems on AM4. After this, only AM5 and 7600, always for value systems.

    A very good way to work with it is also -15 all cores and +100 MHz on PBO if you want it to perform slightly better at 4250+ all cores (4150 all cores for the stock 5600x). Here it gave me Cinebench R23 10980 and consistently 4350 all cores with Corsair 3200 memory at 62-65 watts. Whatever you say is not enough for this processor

    This review is about the packaging: Box

    I simply find it incredible that it was installed on a 2017 motherboard (A320Κ-Μ) and it works perfectly with its performance and all. AMD really impressed us with their long-term support for the AM4 socket.

    I bought 2 to install at home, where my wife uses it for CAD/3D work and I play some games, and at the office for my own work (graphics/video) where I have a B450 motherboard.

    In both systems, I replaced the R5 2600 and gained over 25% performance in single core and over 35% in multicore performance.

    As usual, AMD offers amazing value for money. For €100 per system, it will serve us for at least another 2-3 years for our work, without needing to change anything else.

    I also noticed a noticeable improvement in microstuttering in games, even though my graphics card is a humble Radeon 5500XT. The new processor significantly helped in the games I play, and now the flow of the image is smoother. It seems that this +25% single core really made a difference.

    This processor, when paired with the rtx 4070 msi, is incredible in that it has no difficulty running heavy games like Call of Duty at 165fps 1440p. It is definitely worth its price and more

    There was an upgrade from Ryzen 5 1600 to a system with a 1660Ti graphics card. Overall, it is a pretty good value for money choice. In gaming, I noticed an increase of +10-30 FPS in most games and the temperatures remain quite low.

    A very good processor for its price at 90€ that I bought. I don't know if it's suitable for video editing and such software, I think for that you should go with Intel. But for those who play games, it's perfect. For a mid-end build, of course, nothing more. I have paired it with G.Skill 3600MHz CL16 2Kit 16GB RAM, M.2 W.D. Black storage, Rx6600 Radeon GDDR6 GPU, and Gigabyte B550M motherboard. I smoothly run League of Legends at 240 fps, for which the processor is mainly responsible (mid graphics), and I get 90-100 fps in Fortnite at high graphics.
    It's worth it, but I believe the 5600 is better for an extra 10-20€.

    The processor is VFM. The use I make of it is in games (Lol, FIFA, Watch Dogs Legion, Forza) and programming. I recommend you to get another cooler because the stock one is inadequate (after hours of use (programming) it started to reach around 60 degrees. I got a cooler from coolermaster and now it's cool. I would give it 5 stars if it had a better stock cooler.

    It was bought for a second PC, but after testing, it outperformed the 2600 by far and was put in my gaming PC. At 100 euros, it's unbeatable, the only downside being that it doesn't support PCI4.0 for the new graphics cards.

    I have him on a Gigabyte B550 v2 Gaming X motherboard, paired with 32GB of RAM and a 3050 graphics card. This PC currently runs everything smoothly and I can play all games at 1080p with excellent performance, even with Ray Tracing at 0.1% FPS at 40. If you want your processor to run smoothly, choose a good motherboard like the one I mentioned above, which also supports the 6000 series with updates from the factory - I didn't have to do anything myself. It's a great processor and worth the money. As for temperatures...I don't even have a single fan in my PC and the maximum temperature it reaches without a fan is 60 degrees.

    There was an upgrade from Ryzen 3 1200, and the difference is terrifying. It is at least 5-10 times faster, increasing fps in all games.
    It was installed on an Asus B450 motherboard, and only one bios update was needed, which should be done anyway. For 1080p gaming, it may be the most budget CPU currently available in the market. At the price I see it has reached, it will be the first choice for every budget gamer.

    DO NOT buy this, go for a 3600 with 32MB Cache Memory instead. It works better on A520, B550, X570 motherboards only. For other AM4 motherboards, a BIOS update is required

    I bought it for 120 euros today and now I see it at 102 euros. It's an excellent processor for the money it costs.
    2. It scores 19400 points on Passmark.
    3. It runs on most motherboards on the market after a bios update. I have it on a Gigabyte AB350M-DS3H V2 with bios version F52g.
    4. For me, at 102 euros, it's the absolute best value for money in 2022.
    5. In early 2023, it was at 88 euros.
    Note: It does not have integrated graphics.

    A very honest product for its price. An upgrade from the honest 2200G. The processor is worth it with an average temperature of 50-55 degrees in a mid case with its own cooler, even in a warm room. Value for money for what it offers...! For the average user, it may be ideal, along with the 5600G and 5600X. It will mostly satisfy its owner in both applications and games. Recommended for a friendly budget PC with decent performance!!!

    WARNING!!!
    It is unacceptable for the new AMD processor to have a slightly bent pin straight from the manufacturer!
    Yes, you heard it right!! 1 pin is bent!
    It wouldn't fit into a new motherboard and luckily I noticed it quickly and didn't force it, otherwise it would have broken....
    And I ask... Would the store accept it back?
    At this point, no kids... I would hear the usual excuses...
    With a file from my wife's hands and a big flashlight, I managed to fix it...
    Nevertheless, the processor is very good for 115 euros....

    This review is about the packaging: Box

    Just as I was considering a full upgrade of my system with the Ryzen 5 1600 and my B350 motherboard, AMD suddenly decides to support the 5000 series on 3xx motherboards. So, by purchasing this CPU, I almost doubled my CPU performance for €120. Yes, it's inferior to the 5600x, but at this price point and for an older system like mine, it's a real lifesaver with fantastic performance per €. Of course, it's not recommended for a new system, but for an upgrade from the 1000 or 2000 series, it's a very good economical solution.

    I've noticed much more stable performance in games compared to the 1600, without any lag spikes, and much better performance in emulators. I have the 5700 graphics card and it doesn't bottleneck anywhere. It doesn't support overclocking, but I managed to achieve low temperatures with undervolting, so I gained in quietness as well.

    Also, you gain the ability to upgrade to Windows 11.

    It was installed on a B450 steel legend motherboard after a bios update and ran smoothly without any problems at all. It was purchased for 117€, which is a ridiculous price... There is nothing better for this amount of money. Personally, I was using an Intel setup before and this upgrade made a huge difference in many aspects.

    This review is about the packaging: Box

    This one was a disgrace for AMD. It doesn't support 4th gen and has less cache. It should have been a model of 20 instead of 22, just like the 5600 instead of 5600X at 300 euros. Shame! Disappointing!

    Unfortunately, prices have gone out of control, and euro for euro is a good solution for someone who wants a budget system. If they don't want to change the motherboard. And they had an old processor like 1600X, 2600, or 3300.

    So for slightly lower performance but significantly less money, it's a good choice for an upgrade.

    Installed (upgraded from RYZEN 5 3400G) on an MSI b450m pro-m2 max motherboard with 16gb (2X8gb) Kingston ddr4 3200mhz ram and a Gigabyte GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 graphics card, and nvme team mp34 256gb as a boot drive with Windows 10. It runs satisfactorily for all office applications as well as video conversion and image editing applications. A good purchase for 125 €. Be careful, the motherboard may require a bios update to run it, as happened to me.
