For budget builders, the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 offers an affordable solution, but today, things just got a little interesting and that is thanks to the latest bundle. If you do not want a sluggish system then using an SSD as your boot drive will reduce the time it takes for your PC to reach the Windows login screen and it will take less time to shut down as well.
Fortunately, the latest processor and SSD bundle will allow you to get savings of $34.99. That is $10 cheaper than the actual price of the Ryzen 5 2600 and you are also getting a free 120GB SSD in the mix, making the deal ever so sweeter. The Ryzen 5 2600 packs a total of six cores and 12 threads, with each core running at a speed of 3.40GHz accompanied by a max boost clock speed of 3.90GHz and a TDP of 65 watts.
In addition, you will be getting AMD’s Wraith Stealth Cooler in the box and keep in mind that this stock cooler is able to keep the temperatures of the processor in check without breaking a sweat. If you want more performance out of the affordable chip, all you need to have is an AM4 motherboard that is designed and compatible for overclocking and you will be off to the races.
For a total saving of $189.99, this is honestly not a bad deal at all and we recommend that you check out the specifications of both the processor and SSD before proceeding with your purchase.
