The AMD Ryzen 5 3600X houses 6 CPU cores and 12 processing threads with a base clock of 3.8GHz and a boost frequency of up to 4.4GHz within optimal conditions, allowing the CPU to remain within a 95W TDP envelope which shouldn't stress your system cooling too much. Alongside that is 32MB of cache and a 4.0 PCI-E interface with double the bandwidth of the outgoing Gen. 3.0.
