The AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor (3.6 GHz / 4.2 GHz) is one of the first PC processors to be etched in 7 nm and to support the PCIe 4.0 interface. The third-generation Ryzen, codenamed Matisse, impresses with 6 cores and 12 threads, a base frequency of 3.6 GHz that can be increased to 4.2 GHz and 32 MB of L3 cache and only 65W of TDP!
AMD's Ryzen 5 3600 offers a (re)discovery of high-end performance for gaming, content creation and intensive multitasking. With its 12 threads and a 35MB GameCache, double the cache offered by the second generation Ryzen 5, it allows you to do EVERYTHING faster and more fluidly.
The Zen 2 cores are designed to make efficient use of available resources to optimise computational performance. Compared to the previous architecture, 2X floating point capabilities and up to 15% higher instructions per cycle enable performance to reach new thresholds. Zen 2 combines performance for next-generation applications with optimal energy efficiency.
The AMD Ryzen 5 3600 desktop processor offers 6 native and 12 logical cores for smooth multitasking. Thanks to its high native frequency and its Turbo Core mode, the third-generation AMD Ryzen CPU delivers exceptional performance in gaming, intensive multitasking, video editing, 3D modeling and more. The 32MB L3 cache also enables ultra-fast processing of large numbers of instructions with low latency.

I'm going from an A10 5800K to the Ryzen 3600 so 5 stars :)
Just, it was the same price with and without ventirad, so I took with (I did well because I could not put my old one) but it makes too much noise, I will have to change it quickly.
So: good, but don't take the ventirad.
Good value for money, good delivery.
I'm finally getting some FPS worthy of 2022. I've got it water cooler.
I bought this processor for gaming use and it's really perfect, it fits perfectly to its description, and its quality/price ratio is just right, I recommend it!
Very well received, a few pins that were bent but I put them back but otherwise just fine. Just needed to put some thermal paste on.
Virtually no power consumption, so it doesn't heat up. Very high performance and unbeatable price. It is clear that AMD has surpassed intel on all characteristics...
Mounted by myself with a new motherboard and no problems at all when booting under Manjaro. With the right DDR4 everything works
Delivery ok
Condition ok
Why did the product not arrive in its original packaging? This gives the impression of a repackaged product
Still fast and well packaged by LDLC!
This proc has allowed me to upgrade my machine at a lower cost, and the difference can be seen as soon as the OS boots up and on the FPS too! It comes with a fan which itself offers decent performance and is not noisy at all!
Received in a plastic memory stick, no original packaging. I have ordered from LDLC many times and it has always been fine.
This processor is very powerful for its price, it is fast for gaming and also for multi-tasking with its 6 cores and 12 threads.
