AMD Ryzen 5 1600 65W AM4 Processor with Wraith Stealth Cooler (YD1600BBAFBOX)

The Ryzen 5 1600AF is a fantastic CPU. I am running it at a modest 4.1ghz at 1.275 volts with no problem with my Asus ROG Strix B450-F Gaming Motherboard.

12 nm, oc to 4.1 ghz

Got it for a great price. Enough power for what I need.

$85 6 core 12 thread?! You cant beat this performance, even able to hit 1.4v 4ghz+

With this being the AF variant of the cpu, its essentially an underclocked 2600. Ive owned this for a little over a year and was able to snag it when it was still $85, it has served me well and will be going in an itx build here soon. To anyone who may be reading right now, I would go for a newer cpu but the value for this is unbeatable

Actually wasn’t disappointed, I bought this for a build for my child so he can learn the basics, it was all he needed. No graphic card required, he’ll have to earn that. Runs nicely and for the price it’s not bad.

At $85 USD for this CPU it is definitely the best bang for the buck when it comes to Ryzen processors. Had no issues being detected in a new ASUS ROG Strix B450-F gaming motherboard. This also has almost the exact same specs as the R5 2600 with only a small decrease in core and boost speeds compared to the 2600 with the same 12nm Zen+ process. Would definitely recommend this CPU for anyone building a new budget gaming rig.

i bought this in hopes of having more fps in games i play with with my 580 in rust i seem to get 30 fps max. i came from a 3770 clocked to 3.7 all cores. i have this puppy on a asrock b450 pro4 motherboard overclocked to 4.1 at 1.31 volts. i say i got a got golden chip overclock may vary but alot of people at least getting 4ghz all cores.

Great for the price

This thing is a beast!!! Zen 2 cores!
