The AMD Ryzen 5 2600X 6-core processor belongs to the second generation of microprocessors based on the Zen architecture. With the Zen+ processors of the Ryzen 2000 series, AMD builds on the success of the first generation of Zen microarchitecture. Under the codename Pinnacle Ridge, the Texas chip manufacturer releases the second wave of its high-end processors, impressing with various optimizations. The processors, still based on the AM4 platform, introduce higher clock speeds, an improved boost function, and the advanced automatic overclocking feature XFR2, once again instilling fear in the competition.
