AMD Ryzen 5 3400G APU 3rd Generation Processor ( 4.2 GHz / 4 Cores / 8 Threads )

Product Description

The **AMD Ryzen 5 3400G** is a **3rd generation APU (Accelerated Processing Unit)** designed for **AM4 motherboards**, offering a blend of computing power and integrated graphics. It features a **quad-core** architecture with **eight threads**, thanks to **Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT)**. The base clock speed of this processor is **3.7 GHz**, with the potential to boost up to **4.2 GHz** under load, offering strong performance for both general computing and gaming. Additionally, it has **4MB of L3 cache** and supports **dual-channel 2933 MHz DDR4 memory** for improved system responsiveness.

The Ryzen 5 3400G also integrates **Radeon Vega 11 graphics**, providing solid graphics performance without the need for a dedicated GPU, making it a great choice for budget-conscious users or compact builds. With a **65W TDP**, the processor delivers an optimal balance of performance and power efficiency, and it comes bundled with the **Wraith Spire cooler** for effective thermal management. While it is **unlocked**, enabling overclocking beyond its boost clock, users may need an enhanced cooling solution if pushing the processor to its limits.

Key features include:

– **AMD GameCache**: Designed to reduce memory latency and improve gaming performance, especially for titles that rely heavily on memory access speeds.
– **Precision Boost 2**: The processor can intelligently adjust its clock speeds in 25 MHz increments when running cool, ensuring better performance without interrupting ongoing tasks.
– **One-Click Overclocking (Precision Boost Overdrive)**: Users can easily increase clock speeds with just one click, providing a simple way to overclock and enhance performance.
– **AMD StoreMI Technology**: This technology combines the speed of SSDs with the capacity of HDDs into a single, high-performance hybrid drive, making it easier to manage and access frequently used files and programs.
– **AMD SenseMI Technology**: A suite of machine learning features that help the processor adapt and optimize its performance based on your specific usage patterns and applications.
– **AMD Ryzen Master Utility**: A tool that allows users to create up to four custom profiles for CPU, GPU, and memory configurations, offering precise control over the processor’s settings. It also provides real-time monitoring of system performance, including per-core clock rates and temperatures.

This combination of power, flexibility, and integrated graphics makes the **Ryzen 5 3400G** an ideal choice for users seeking strong computing performance without the need for a discrete GPU, or those who want a processor capable of handling light gaming and content creation workloads.
