6 Cores / 12 Threads with Zen 4 Architecture
The AMD Ryzen 5 8400F is built on the advanced Zen 4 architecture, featuring 6 physical cores and 12 threads. This configuration allows for efficient multitasking and smooth performance in both gaming and productivity applications. The Zen 4 architecture brings improvements in instructions per cycle (IPC), power efficiency, and overall processing capabilities, ensuring a responsive computing experience.
Base Clock 4.2 GHz / Max Boost 4.7 GHz
Operating at a base frequency of 4.2 GHz, the Ryzen 5 8400F can dynamically boost up to 4.7 GHz under demanding workloads. This high clock speed range ensures quick responsiveness and the ability to handle intensive tasks, such as gaming, content creation, and complex computations, with ease.
16MB L3 Cache and 6MB L2 Cache
Equipped with a substantial 16MB of L3 cache and 6MB of L2 cache, the processor can store and access frequently used data swiftly. This large cache size reduces latency and improves overall system performance, particularly in applications that require rapid data retrieval and processing.
65W TDP with Configurable TDP Down to 45W
With a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 65 watts, the Ryzen 5 8400F offers a balance between performance and energy efficiency. Additionally, it supports a configurable TDP down to 45 watts, providing flexibility for systems that prioritize lower power consumption and thermal output, such as compact or energy-conscious builds.
PCIe 4.0 Support with 20 Lanes
The processor supports PCI Express 4.0, offering 20 lanes for high-speed data transfer between the CPU and connected components like graphics cards and NVMe storage devices. This ensures faster load times, improved bandwidth, and overall enhanced system responsiveness, catering to both gamers and professionals.
DDR5 Memory Support up to 5200 MT/s
Supporting dual-channel DDR5 memory with speeds up to 5200 MT/s, the Ryzen 5 8400F allows for higher memory bandwidth and improved data transfer rates. This results in better performance in memory-intensive tasks, smoother multitasking, and future-proofing for upcoming software demands.
Unlocked Multiplier for Overclocking
The processor features an unlocked multiplier, enabling users to overclock and push the CPU beyond its base specifications. This is particularly beneficial for enthusiasts and gamers seeking to extract maximum performance, provided they have adequate cooling solutions and compatible motherboards.
TechPowerUp
Precision Boost 2 and Precision Boost Overdrive
AMD's Precision Boost 2 technology allows the processor to intelligently increase its clock speeds based on workload, temperature, and power consumption, ensuring optimal performance. Precision Boost Overdrive further enhances this by leveraging additional thermal and power headroom, allowing for higher boost frequencies and improved performance in demanding scenarios.
AMD EXPO™ Memory Overclocking Technology
The AMD Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™) technology simplifies memory overclocking by providing predefined profiles for compatible DDR5 modules. This allows users to achieve higher memory speeds and better performance with minimal manual configuration, enhancing gaming and application responsiveness.
AMD Ryzen Master Utility Support
The Ryzen 5 8400F is compatible with the AMD Ryzen Master Utility, a software tool that offers real-time monitoring and control over various system parameters. Users can customize performance profiles, adjust clock speeds, voltages, and monitor temperatures, providing a comprehensive platform for system optimization and overclocking.
No Integrated Graphics – Discrete GPU Required
It's important to note that the Ryzen 5 8400F does not include integrated graphics. Therefore, a discrete graphics card is necessary for video output. This design choice allows the processor to focus solely on CPU performance, making it an ideal choice for users who plan to use dedicated GPUs for gaming or professional applications.
