The AM4 socket is approaching its 10th birthday, and AMD still refuses to stop making CPUs for the legendary platform. The CPU manufacturer has officially introduced the Ryzen 5 5500X3D, a Zen 3-based six-core part aimed at the Latin American market.
The Ryzen 5 5500X3D represents AMD's fourth 3D-VCache model under the Ryzen 5000 umbrella. The chip is essentially a detuned Ryzen 5 5600X3D with a flat 3GHz base clock and a flat 4GHz boost clock, but it has the same six Zen 3 cores and 96MB of L3 cache.
