AMD Ryzen 5 7500F at a glance

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F is based on the Raphael architecture and is manufactured using the 5 nm process at TSMC. It uses the AM5 socket with X670E, X670, B650E, B650, A620 chipsets, PCIe Gen 5, 24 Lanes (CPU only), and DDR5 memory up to 5200 MT/s across Dual-channel memory. It has 6 cores at 3.70–5.00 GHz and 12 threads. Cache is 1024 kB L2 and 32 MB L3.

This is a Desktop processor using consumer memory and expansion standards. Its workload suitability is better described by the measured application and gaming scores below than by core count alone.

Power is relatively modest at 65 W base and 88 W maximum, making compact cooling easier than on higher-power parts.

This CPU has no integrated graphics. A discrete graphics card is required for display output.

Best fit: Cost-conscious desktop builds paired with a discrete GPU and workloads appropriate to its measured tier.
