  • Key Specs
    • Processor Socket: Socket AM4 (PGA 1331) (Type of pin configuration that connects a CPU to a computer’s motherboard.)
    • PCI Express Version: PCI Express 3.0
    • CPU Base Clock Frequency: 3.6 gigahertz (Actual central processing unit (CPU) speed may vary by device configuration and design. The average rate at which the processor is able to execute tasks under normal operating conditions as asserted by the manufacturer.)
    • CPU Boost Clock Frequency: 4.4 gigahertz (Actual central processing unit (CPU) speed may vary by device configuration and design.
