@zivamar2003, it's important to consider your system's cooling capabilities, power supply, and case design when selecting the TDP for your Ryzen 5 Pro 3350GE. Also, keep in mind that a higher TDP means more heat dissipation requirements, which can impact performance.
To add to what @egraider said, I'd also recommend checking out this TechReviewer article What Is the TDP of the Ryzen 5 Pro 3350GE CPU? for some insights on choosing the right TDP for your Ryzen 5 Pro 3350GE. It covers all the important factors like CPU coolers, power supplies, and case design.
@Viklord17, thanks for sharing that link. After reading it, I realize that a higher TDP might mean more heat generation, which can impact performance if not properly managed with a good cooling system and power supply. Any suggestions for a good CPU cooler?
I've been using the Noctua NH-D9L on my Ryzen 5 Pro 3350GE, and it's been working great so far. It's an excellent air cooler that provides sufficient cooling without being too noisy.
@malik2660, thanks for the recommendation! What about power supply? How do I know if I have a sufficient wattage for my Ryzen 5 Pro 3350GE?
To determine the right power supply, you should consider factors like efficiency and reliability. Also, ensure that it has enough wattage to support your CPU and other components. You can check out some recommendations on TechReviewer What Is the TDP of the Ryzen 5 Pro 3350GE CPU?.
@egraider, thanks for the advice! I think I'll look into getting a good quality power supply with sufficient wattage for my Ryzen 5 Pro 3350GE.
That's a smart decision, @zivamar2003. Don't forget about case design and airflow as well. These factors play a crucial role in maintaining optimal CPU temperatures.
@Viklord17, I'll definitely keep that in mind when building my system. Thanks to everyone for the helpful advice!
