AMD 100-000000061

Overview

The AMD 100-000000061 is a Ryzen 9 5900X desktop processor designed to deliver high performance for demanding computing tasks. Featuring 12 physical cores and 24 threads, it handles multitasking, gaming, and creative workloads with ease. Its base clock runs at 3.7 GHz, while Precision Boost technology can increase speeds up to 4.8 GHz, ensuring smooth performance during intensive bursts.

Built on a 7 nm process, this processor includes 6 MB of L2 cache and 64 MB of L3 cache to reduce data access times and improve responsiveness. It supports PCIe 4.0 for compatibility with the latest graphics cards and NVMe SSDs, and works with DDR4 memory up to 3200 MT/s, making it well suited for memory-heavy applications like video editing and data analysis.

With a 105 W thermal design power and no included cooler, it is recommended to use a high-quality air or liquid cooling solution. Compatible with AM4 motherboards, especially those with X570 or B550 chipsets, this processor fits well in both upgrade and new build scenarios, providing the power needed for streaming, compiling, and running multiple virtual machines.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
