AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Matisse specifications: tests, competitors, price

• Ryzen 5 3600

Ryzen 5 3600 processor Marked by the manufacturer as: 100-100000031BOX.

Number of cores — 6, manufactured according to 7 nm process technology, Matisse architecture. Thanks to SMT technology, the number of threads is 12, which increases the performance of multi-threaded applications and games.

Ryzen 5 3600 base clock — 3.6 GHz. The maximum frequency in AMD Turbo Core mode reaches 4.2 GHz. Please note that the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 cooler must cool processors with a TDP of at least 65W at stock frequencies. When overclocked, the requirements increase.

Thanks to the built-in N/A video core, the computer can work without a discrete graphics card because the monitor is connected to the video output on the motherboard.

AMD Ryzen 5 Benchmarks 3600

Gaming speed

Performance in games and similar applications, according to our tests.

The performance of 4 cores, if any, and performance per core has the greatest impact on the result, since most games do not fully use more than 4 cores.

The speed of caches and working with RAM is also important.

Speed ​​in office use

Performance in everyday work such as browsers and office applications.

The performance of 1 core has the greatest impact on the result, since most of these applications use only one, ignoring the rest.

Similarly, many professional applications such as various CADs ignore multi-threaded performance.

Speed ​​in heavy applications

Performance in resource-intensive tasks loading a maximum of 8 cores.

The performance of all cores and their number have the greatest impact on the result, since most of these applications willingly use all the cores and increase the speed accordingly.

At the same time, certain periods of work can be demanding on the performance of one or two cores, for example, applying filters in the editor.

Data obtained from tests by users who tested their systems with and without overclocking. Thus, you see the average values ​​corresponding to the processor.

Speed ​​of numerical operations

Simple household tasks
Minimum	Average	Maximum
66	Memory: 76	88
Memory 78.7
117	1 core: 133	141
1 core 56
222	2 cores: 259	281
2 cores 55

Demanding tasks
Minimum	Average	Maximum
410	4 cores: 483	546
4 cores 51. 6
678	8 cores: 792	869
8 cores 44.8

Extreme
Minimum	Average	Maximum
868	All cores: 999	1091
All cores 18.4

Different tasks require different CPU strengths. A system with few fast cores and low memory latency will be fine for the vast majority of games, but will be inferior to a system with a lot of slow cores in a rendering scenario.

We believe that a minimum of 4/4 (4 physical cores and 4 threads) processor is suitable for a budget gaming PC. At the same time, some games can load it at 100%, slow down and freeze, and performing any tasks in the background will lead to a drop in FPS.

Ideally, the budget shopper should aim for a minimum of 4/8 and 6/6. A gamer with a big budget can choose between 6/12, 8/8 and 8/16. Processors with 10 and 12 cores can perform well in games with high frequency and fast memory, but are overkill for such tasks. Also, buying for the future is a dubious undertaking, since in a few years many slow cores may not provide sufficient gaming performance.

When choosing a processor for your work, consider how many cores your programs use. For example, photo and video editors can use 1-2 cores when working with filtering, and rendering or converting in the same editors already uses all threads.

Data obtained from tests by users who tested their systems both with overclocking (maximum value in the table) and without (minimum). A typical result is shown in the middle, the more filled in the color bar, the better the average result among all tested systems.

Compare

Benchmarks

Benchmarks were run on stock hardware, that is, without overclocking and with factory settings. Therefore, on overclocked systems, the points can noticeably differ upwards. Also, small performance changes may be due to the BIOS version.

Tests in games

FPS measured by us in popular games on AMD Ryzen 5 3 600 and meet system requirements. Please note that the official requirements of developers in games do not always match the data of real tests. Also, the result is strongly influenced by the overclocking of the system and the graphic settings in the game. We test at high settings in FullHD resolution to get numbers close to real gameplay.

Now there are 50 games in our database. On average, in all gaming tests, the processor scored 67 points out of 100, where 100 is the fastest gaming processor to date.

Features

Basic

Socket Installed in motherboards with a suitable socket. Note that a socket is not guaranteed to be compatible. The manufacturer may not add support to the BIOS.	AM4
Chipsets Installed in motherboards with the correct chipset. However, some motherboards may not support or require a BIOS update. There are also various revisions of motherboards (with support out of the box and performance after the update).	A300, X300, A320, B350, X370, B450, X470, A520, B550, X570
Manufacturer Firm	AMD
Presentation datePresentation in the media, official information.	2019-07-07
Code name of the Microarchitecture family.	Matisse
GenerationCode name for the microarchitecture generation.	Ryzen 5 (Zen 2 (Matisse))

Performance

Cores The total number of physical cores.	6
ThreadsNumber of threads. The number of logical processor cores that the operating system sees.	12
Multi-Threading Technology With Intel’s Hyper-threading and AMD’s SMT technology, one physical core is recognized as two logical cores in the operating system, thereby increasing processor performance in multi-threaded applications.	SMT (note that some games may not work well with SMT, for maximum FPS you can try to disable the technology in the BIOS of the motherboard).
Base frequencyThe guaranteed frequency of all cores (P-cores in the case of the corresponding architecture) of the processor at maximum load. It is important to remember that speed and frequency are not directly related. For example, a new processor at a lower frequency may be faster than an old one at a higher one.	3.6 GHz
Turbo frequencyThe maximum frequency of one processor core in turbo mode. Manufacturers allow modern processors to independently increase the frequency of one or more cores under low-threaded loads, due to which performance is noticeably increased. It may depend on the nature of the load, the number of loaded cores, temperature and the specified limits. Significantly affects the speed in games and applications that are demanding on the frequency of the CPU, but do not load all threads.	4.2 GHz
Free multiplier Allows you to specify any multiplier, which is convenient for manual overclocking. It’s worth mentioning that old-school multiplier or bus overclocking is a thing of the past.	Yes
BCLK System bus frequency. Some motherboards allow you to achieve a good performance boost by slightly raising the bus frequency. Often this has a bad effect on the stability of the system.	100
CPU multiplier. The final CPU frequency is determined by the simple formula BCLK * CPU multiplier. Modern processors instantly change the multiplier of each of the cores, taking into account the type of load, temperature, consumption and settings in the BIOS.	36
TDPThermal Design Power is an indicator that determines heat dissipation in standard operation. The cooler or water cooling system must be rated for a larger value. Remember that with a factory bus or manual overclocking, TDP increases significantly.	65 W
tCaseMax Allowable IHS (heat spreading plate, «cover») temperature.	95°C

Cache and RAM

L1 Cache First level cache. Modern processors use a multi-level cache. The first is the fastest, but the smallest. In the case of an L1 access and a miss, the L2 cache is searched for the next stage.	64K (per core)
L2 Cache Second level cache. Holds more data, but is slower.	512K (per core)
L3 Cache L3 cache. AMD created the Ryzen 7 5800X3D with a record-breaking L3 volume, which reduced the requirements for memory frequency and significantly increased the number of frames in many games.	32MB (shared)
Supported type of RAM The type of RAM depends on its frequency and timings (speed), availability, price.	DDR4-3200 MHz Dual-channel

Video core

Integrated graphics core Allows you to use your computer without a discrete graphics card. The monitor is connected to the video output on the motherboard. If earlier integrated graphics made it possible to simply work at a computer, today it can replace budget video accelerators and makes it possible to play most games at low settings.

N/A

PCI

PCI-E The PCI Express computer bus version. The bandwidth and power limit depend on the version. There is backward compatibility.

Gen 4
