AMD has four members in the Ryzen 5 family scheduled to go on sale from April 11.
AMDs Ryzen 5 processor line-up will work with the very same AM4 platform as the higher-end Ryzen 7.
Most Ryzen 5 processors sold at retail will also include AMD Wraith coolers.
However, note that these coolers do-not feature built-in RBG light rings.
Only the AMD Wraith coolers included with Ryzen 7 processors have the built-in lighting.
Like the high-end Ryzen 7 1800X, the 95W Ryzen 5 1600X too will ship without a bundled cooler.
Moving down-market from the 6-core Ryzen processors are the quad core, eight thread Ryzen 5s.
In an effort to maintain some separation between their product series, AMD is seen manipulating frequencies.
That means it still receives a full 16MB allotment of L3 cache.
In the meantime, the 1400 part only has 8MB cache.
