AMD Ryzen 5 4500 Desktop Processor

The AMD Ryzen 5 4500 delivers Zen 2 architecture performance for mainstream desktop builds. This 6-core, 12-thread processor operates at 3.6GHz base clock with boost speeds up to 4.1GHz, providing reliable performance for gaming and productivity tasks.

Core Specifications

Built on TSMC's 7nm FinFET process technology, the Ryzen 5 4500 features 6 CPU cores with simultaneous multithreading (SMT) support for 12 threads. The processor includes 384KB L1 cache, 3MB L2 cache, and 8MB L3 cache for a total of 11MB cache memory. With a 65W TDP, this processor maintains efficient power consumption while delivering consistent performance.

Socket AM4 Compatibility

The Ryzen 5 4500 uses the AM4 socket and supports a wide range of chipsets including X570, X470, X370, B550, B450, B350, A520, and A320. Drop-in ready on AMD 500, 400, and select 300 series motherboards with a BIOS update, this processor offers flexible upgrade paths for existing AM4 systems.

Memory and Connectivity

This processor supports dual-channel DDR4 memory up to 3200MHz with a maximum capacity of 128GB. It provides 24 native PCIe 3.0 lanes (20 usable), 4 native USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, and 2 native SATA ports. NVMe support includes boot, RAID0, RAID1, and RAID10 configurations.

Included Wraith Stealth Cooler

The AMD Wraith Stealth cooler comes included with the processor. This low-profile thermal solution features near-silent acoustics and capable thermal performance for the 65W TDP, with a maximum operating temperature of 95°C.

AMD Ryzen Technologies

Precision Boost 2 automatically raises processor frequencies by monitoring temperature and power consumption to deliver optimal performance. The unlocked multiplier allows for overclocking customization through AMD Ryzen Master utility. AMD StoreMI technology enables combining SSD speed with HDD capacity for accelerated storage performance.

System Requirements

This processor requires a discrete graphics card as it does not include integrated graphics. Compatible with Windows 11 64-bit, Windows 10 64-bit, RHEL x86 64-bit, and Ubuntu x86 64-bit operating systems. Supports x86-64 instruction set with extensions including AES, AMD-V, AVX, AVX2, FMA3, SHA, and SSE variants.
