AMD processors: compare 44 Ryzen and Threadripper models

Start with the socket, not the core count

AM4, AM5 and sTR5 are physically different platforms. A Ryzen 5000 processor does not fit an AM5 board, and a Threadripper needs a workstation board built for sTR5. Check the motherboard support page and the required BIOS version before comparing clocks.

What the table can and cannot compare

Core and thread counts help identify workload class; they do not settle gaming or creator performance by themselves. Cache design, graphics card, memory, cooling, application version and power limits all change the result. X3D models should be compared within a compatible platform and workload, rather than treated as a universal upgrade.

Integrated graphics is not the same across every Ryzen

Most AM5 Ryzen desktop processors include basic Radeon graphics for display output, while the 8000G line carries a substantially different integrated Radeon GPU. Older AM4 models without graphics require a discrete GPU for video output. Read the exact row before assuming a motherboard video port will work.

Use the Amazon link as a model search

Listings can mix boxed CPUs, OEM parts, bundles and used inventory. The button opens a search for the exact model. Match the name and socket against the table, then confirm warranty, cooler inclusion and the seller's return policy.
