AMD RYZEN 5 1400

The AMD Ryzen 5 1400 quad-core processor has the ambition to become the basic building block of your new computer. It is one of the cheapest models for demanding gaming.  In addition, the AMD Ryzen platform is enriched with a host of new features and technologies.

Key features

• 4 cores / 8 fibers
• Unlocked multiplier for easy overclocking
• Attractive purchase price
• 14nm manufacturing process
• It is necessary to use a new AM4 base plate
• Unofficial Windows 7 support
• The Wraith Stealth is included

4 cores and 8 threads

With a massive increase in performance , there is a shift to a completely new architecture, and a refined production process (14nm FinFET). This allows you to enjoy much faster rendering of videos, encryption of discs, and ultimately boosting FPS in all genre games. We have to admit that, according to tests, the Ryzen processors have little reserves in this area. AMD knows about them and works intensively with game developers for the necessary repairs.

Technological improvements in the massive use of SMT technology, which is basically well-known MultiThreading. This is the support of two computational threads per core.

A great upgrade is waiting for you

The new lineup of AMD Ryzen processors is firmly connected to the brand new AM4. It is quite clear that, besides the processor itself, you also need a new motherboard, and possibly DDR4 memory. However, this undoubtedly large financial investment pays off in the form of integration of a whole range of modern technologies. From a long list, we will switch USB 3.1 (USB-C), PCIe 3.0, NVMe, 32Gb / s M.2 slots, SATA Express and, of course, the support of multiple CrossFire graphics cards will not be missed.

Finally, we have a good message for the owners of the older Windows 7 operating system. The manufacturer does not guarantee technical support, but the processor will be functional in this system as well.
