Product overview

Released on September 27, 2022, the Ryzen 5 7600X is a 6‑core/12‑thread Zen 4 part in AMD’s Ryzen 7000 family for Socket AM5. It clocks at 4.7 GHz base with up to 5.3 GHz boost, supports DDR5 and PCIe 5.0, and works with AM5 motherboards (A620/B650/B650E/X670/X670E and newer X870 series). No boxed cooler is included.

Positioned as a mainstream CPU, it targets buyers who want high clocks and modern I/O without paying for extra cores. It’s a strong fit for 1080p and 1440p gaming, light streaming, and everyday office/productivity. Notably, this generation adds a basic RDNA 2 Radeon iGPU (2 CUs) for display output, and the chip is unlocked for overclocking. Discontinuation status is not confirmed.
