The Ryzen 5 4500 is a 6-core, 12-thread AM4 desktop CPU built on AMD's older Zen 2 architecture, with boost clocks up to 4.1 GHz and a 65W TDP. It ships with the Wraith Stealth cooler and is unlocked for overclocking on compatible boards. Its main weakness is the lack of PCIe 4.0 and a small 8MB L3 cache, which holds it back in some games compared with newer budget chips. It suits budget builders who already have an AM4 board or want a cheap six-core starting point.
