Ryzen 5 5600 Spec and Price in Germany

AM46 cores / 12 threads

Released April 4, 2022 ·

A 65W, cooler-included alternative to the Ryzen 5 5600X: the same six cores, 12 threads and 32MB of L3 cache, but a 4.4GHz boost clock and 3.5GHz base versus the X model's higher clocks. AMD bundles a Wraith Stealth cooler in the box, lowering the out-the-door cost of a first build. No integrated graphics is included, so a discrete GPU is still required.

Tied 62nd of 65 models in the CPU catalog on Boost clock — 2 models share this figure. Tied 32nd of 65 models in the CPU catalog on L3 cache — 13 models share this figure.

What owners and reviewers say

Summarised from 3 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices

Commonly praised

  • Reviewers rate its price-to-performance highly, placing it only slightly behind the 5600X with excellent gaming performance.
  • It supports PCIe 4.0, unlike the 5000G parts, and is power-efficient and easy to cool.
  • It ships with a cooler, is unlocked, and works with a broad range of AM4 motherboards including 300-series.
  • Owners describe the chip as working well once installed, with enough performance for everyday use.
  • One owner whose unit arrived damaged in shipping says the seller replaced it quickly at no cost.

Commonly criticised

  • It has no integrated graphics.
  • Reviewers noted Intel's competing part was slightly cheaper and faster, though its platform cost more.
  • Multiple owners say the CPU does not include the cooler the listing claims it does.
  • One owner reports receiving a plain brown box rather than retail packaging.
