New 3rd Generation AMD Ryzen 5 3600X CPU

Ryzen 5 CPU

The New AMD 3rd Generation Ryzen CPU LineupThe new AMD Ryzen 3rd Gen CPUs have arrived boasting higher performance gains over its predecessor lineup. With higher speeds, more memory and wider bandwidth the new Ryzen CPUs look to improve on and upgrade the way you relax, work and play. The AMD Ryzen 5 3600X processor includes 6 CPU Cores with 12 threads and a base clock of 3.8GHz that can be boosted to 4.4GHz. The new CPU's are backwards compatible with older motherboards thanks to the same AM4 slot socket however with the newly released chipset of X570 motherboards you can maximize the power the Ryzen CPUs have to offer. Support for DDR4 Memory continues but with the new Ryzen CPUs comes the new PCIe 4.0 Version which has improved the speeds of which your PCIe components such as graphics cards and some storage solutions communicate with the motherboard. Blur the line between elite gaming performance and workstation-class content creation with the most advanced desktop processors in the world.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hello team Red Having had intel CPU in my builds for the past 6 years with no issues my gigabyte board gave up the ghost (which scan have had no issue in sending for RMA) I decided that rather than i5 i would try a Ryzen 5 chip, so far i have overclocked it using the auto oc tool from AMD to 4.5 and it is perfectly stable. - It is under a fractal S24 cooler and doesn't go above 80 degrees with a stress test

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Great chip for the price, but think twice before buying... Make sure your motherboard is bios flashed to save you the pain of my story and building a pc that didn't work out of the box. Other than once I finally got the chip working with my b450 Instantly happy, the chip is amazing, the stock cooler is terrible. But other than that best value for me as it was on sale.

EEC memory support

It says in your description that this CPU does not support EEC memory. However everywhere else I look says all Matisse AMD CPUs do support EEC (given a compatible mobo), who is right?
Asked by: peterg56789
Good Afternoon, The following statement is from AMD: "ECC is not disabled. It works, but not validated for our consumer client platform. Validated means run it through server/workstation grade testing. For the first Ryzen processors, focused on the prosumer/gaming market, this feature is enabled and working but not validated by AMD. You should not have issues creating a whitebox homelab or NAS with ECC memory enabled. yes, if you enable ECC support in the BIOS so check with the MB feature list before you buy." If you would like any further information, I would recommend giving us a call on 01204 474747 or contacting us via Live Chat. Kind Regards,
