DESCRIPTION :
- Architecture: Built on the Zen 5 “Granite Ridge” microarchitecture using a TSMC 4 nm process for the CPU cores and 6 nm for the I/O die.
Cores / Threads: 8 cores and 16 threads, supporting simultaneous multithreading.
Clock Speeds:
Base Clock: 3.8 GHz
Boost Clock: Up to 5.5 GHz for excellent single-threaded performance
Cache: 40 MB total—comprising 8 MB L2 and 32 MB L3—for improved access speeds and reduced latency.
TDP: Low 65 W, with real-world power draw around 88 W when boosting—highlighting strong efficiency.
Socket & Platform: AM5 socket compatibility, working with chipsets like B650, X670, X870, etc.
Memory Support: Dual-channel DDR5, officially up to DDR5‑5600, with up to 192 GB supported.
PCIe Support: Full PCIe 5.0, offering future-ready connectivity for GPUs and SSDs.
Integrated Graphics: Includes Radeon Graphics (2 GPU cores at ~2200 MHz) for basic display and troubleshooting.
Overclocking & Tuning: Unlocked CPU with support for AMD EXPO, Precision Boost Overdrive, Curve Optimizer, and Ryzen Master utility.
Cooling: No stock cooler included—AMD recommends a high-quality air or liquid cooler.
Thermal Behavior: Some users report idle temperatures around 50–60 °C, stabilizing under load at ~70 °C.
Warranty Details
Standard Warranty: AMD typically offers a 3-year limited warranty for Ryzen CPUs, covering defects under normal use. (Ensure you keep your purchase receipt for claims.)
105 W cTDP Mode: BIOS updates now allow a 105 W cTDP option that boosts performance without voiding the warranty—if you have adequate cooling.
