Still no issues. Definitely worth. Review: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 speed - I purchased Asus Laptop 2012. No problem came for 5 years. Than I purchased Dell Laptop it worked for 5 years. No problem. After that in 2022 I switched to 11th gen i3 Laptop. Lenovo ideapad slim3 which broke in just 1 year. previously I had a workstation 2nd Gen CI7 2600K with P8H67 I deluxe from Asus. And it went well for 10 years. So finally I decided to build a pc which is solid build. And after a complete market research I came up with following specs. I needed basic graphics so I chose Nvidia 710 ddr5 rather than ddr3. Asus B520 M K motherboard. AMD Ryzen 5 3600 8 x 2 = 16 gb of corsair vengeance 3200 MHz Ant Esports Si11 Cabinet Ant Esports VS400L psu View Sonic 2209 Monitor Logitech M90 Mouse Logitech K120 Keyboard Gigabyte NVIDIA 710 2gb ddr5 graphics card TP link TP600 wireless card This complete built cost me around 31125 rs. I have not added Hard Disk because I already reached my limit of 30000. So I used my laptop M.2 NVME. 1TB. This PC is superfast. Within 2 mins I installed windows 11. From that u can imagine it's speed. Pros: Speed is good Cons: I made 2 mistakes in building my pc. First I should have waited and made my budget 40k. So I could have purchased 1030 gpu which cost 7000. It gives 1080 p output in games. I don't play games but I won't it for video editing. 2nd motherboard should B450. Actually this motherboard I didn't know existed till I purchased B520. B450 Has support for Higher Frequency Ram. B520 only has support upto 2666MHz. Though documents show that B520 support 4600 Mhz Ram. But when I saw performance it shows 2133 MHz. So little bottleneck you will see in performance. Otherwise only 1 min to install windows 11. Don't Purchase Ant esports cabinets because it has less space compared to other brands like Frontech - IBall - Zabronics - Enter - krystaa. Krystaa is totally a local brand but it defeats Ant Esports in terms of space and build quality. If u want gaming Cabinet go with zebronics. It will be very very helpful for long run. I hope everything is clear.

You absolutely need a GPU, or else it wont work. Unless it has a G after the number. Ex. Ryzen 5 3400G **Q: Does the wraith cooler have thermal past on or do i have to manually put it on?** A: the cooler has thermal paste on already **Q: does it come with the cooler?** A: Yes, It comes with a AMD Wraith Cooler. The AMD Wraith Cooler is included in the same box as the CPU (AMD Ryzen R5 3600) Once the box is opened you will have to remove the protective cardboard surrounding the cooler to actually see the cooler. Also according to the description above, you will notice that on multiple occasions there are mentions that a Wraith Cooler is included in the box. Hope you find this information helpful. **Q: I have the ASUS ROG STRIX B350-F GAMING AMD Ryzen AM4 motherboard, can i pop this in and i am good to go? do i need a 2nd gen ryzen first to set bios** A: I have this exact motherboard and I have the Ryzen 5 3600 running on it smoothly. To get it to work you will first need to update your motherboard's firmware first. So you will need a 1st gen or 2nd gen Ryzen CPU to update the BIOS. Also, before you do that you also want to install the latest AMD chipset drivers before you update the firmware. So you do it in this order.... 1) Go to AMD's website. Download and install the lastest AMD chipset driver (that chipset driver works for every generation of AMD Ryzen CPUs). 2) Go to ASUS' website and download the lastest firmware. Install the firmware with your Gen 1 or Gen 2 Ryzen CPU in your motherboard. 3) Now you can put in your Ryzen 3rd gen (Zen 2) processor in your motherboard and it will work. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Product. *by V***H on 3 January 2026* It's been more than 5 years.

This CPU can handle most triple A games and the best part is you can pair it with a budget gpu like 1660 or even a high end gpu like 3070, yes it will bottleneck at 1080p with a 3070, but wont be a problem for 1440p, I get above 80 fps at least in every game I have played except cyberpunk. 3600 is also good for multi-threading tasks like programming, CAD , 3d mark , and general productivity My cpu boosts at 4.2 ghz with ease. Bear in mind tht If u pair it with the rtx 3000 series gpu u will get high temps because of the gpu exhuast if you are using the stock cooler, at load temp rises upto 80c ## Frequently Bought Together - AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core, 12-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor with Wraith Stealth Cooler - ARCTIC MX-4 (4 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for All Processors (CPU, GPU - PC), Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Safe Application, Non-Conductive - Crucial P3 Plus 1TB PCIe Gen4 3D NAND NVMe M.2 SSD, up to 5000MB/s - CT1000P3PSSD8 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/141852271-amd-ryzen-5-3600-desktop-processor-6-cores-up-to](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/141852271-amd-ryzen-5-3600-desktop-processor-6-cores-up-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
