The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 3400GE is a desktop processor with 4 cores, launched in September 2019. It is part of the Ryzen 5 lineup, using the Zen+ (Picasso) architecture with Socket AM4. Thanks to AMD Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) the core-count is effectively doubled, to 8 threads. Ryzen 5 PRO 3400GE has 4 MB of L3 cache and operates at 3.3 GHz by default, but can boost up to 4 GHz, depending on the workload. AMD is making the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400GE on a 12 nm production node using 4,940 million transistors. The silicon die of the chip is not fabricated at AMD, but at the foundry of GlobalFoundries. The multiplier is locked on Ryzen 5 PRO 3400GE, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 35 W, the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400GE consumes only little energy. AMD's processor supports DDR4 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 2933 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. ECC memory is supported, too, which is an important capability for mission-critical systems, to avoid data corruption. For communication with other components in the computer, Ryzen 5 PRO 3400GE uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the Radeon RX Vega 11 integrated graphics solution.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400GE, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) can run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications. Besides AVX, AMD is including the newer AVX2 standard, too, but not AVX-512.
