Overview
SummaryThe AMD Ryzen 5 5600T is a desktop processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, built on the Zen 3 architecture (7 nm process). It launched in Oct 2024. Clocks run from 3.5 GHz base to 4.5 GHz boost. A 32-MB L3 cache backs the cores (5.9 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 128 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the AM4 socket and exposes PCIe 4.0 (24 lanes). Rated TDP is 65 W. Notable platform capabilities: AMD-V (Hardware Virtualization), AMD SEV.
Performance
12 metricsThe AMD Ryzen 5 5600T scores 3,317 in single-core performance and 21,834 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 8,510 for overall performance, 18,836 for productivity performance, 17,979 for creator performance, 21,698 for engineering performance and 15,410 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 3,639 per core, 1,820 per thread and 336 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,056. Its performance index is 105, so its overall performance is 5% above the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.
How these scores are computed
Single-core and multi-core performance are PassMark CPU Mark single-thread and multi-thread ratings. Every other figure on this page's performance section is computed by Feex from those two ratings plus core count, thread count and TDP, so it is a derived value and not a separate benchmark run.
- Overall performance is the geometric mean of the two ratings: the square root of single-core times multi-core.
- Productivity performance is 0.65 times multi-core plus 1.4 times single-core.
- Creator performance is 0.55 times multi-core plus 1.8 times single-core.
- Engineering performance is multi-core times the smaller of 1.4 and (0.9 plus cores divided by 64).
- Gaming performance is 3 times single-core plus 0.25 times multi-core.
- Performance per core, per thread and per watt divide the multi-core rating by physical cores, logical threads and TDP in watts.
- The efficiency index is the square root of single-core times multi-core, divided by the square root of TDP.
- The performance index is overall performance divided by the overall performance of the Intel Core i5-12400 (8,069), times 100.
Workload Benchmarks
8 workloadsScores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.
In the individual workload tests the AMD Ryzen 5 5600T scores 68,822 in integer math, 39,432 in floating-point math, 256,194 in compression, 15,684 in cryptography, 1,280 in physics simulation, 17,337 in vector SIMD, 141 in the prime sieve and 26,287 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 17% above in integer math, 14% below in floating-point math, 12% above in compression, 37% above in cryptography, 17% above in physics simulation, 12% above in vector SIMD, 110% above in the prime sieve and 16% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.
