AMD A6 9500E 3-core AM4
The 28nm Bristol Ridge dual-core chip runs at a 3.4GHz boost clock with a 35W TDP, making it a low-power option for basic Socket AM4 systems. Its integrated Radeon R5 graphics and DDR4 support provide just enough capability for display output and light multimedia without a discrete GPU. This processor is best for users building a simple home office PC or a budget media server where energy efficiency and cost are the primary concerns.
