Ryzen 5 4600GE TDP Concerns in SFF Build?

Any advice on choosing the best CPU for a small form factor (SFF) build? I'm particularly interested in the Ryzen 5 4600GE, but concerned about its low TDP and PPT limit.

I've used the Ryzen 5 4600GE in an SFF build before, and it worked fine. Just make sure to choose a good quality cooler and power supply according to the CPU's specs.

Thanks for your input, @furiouspillows. Can you elaborate on how to select a proper cooler and power supply?

I had a similar concern about the Ryzen 5 4600GE TDP when building my SFF. The key is to ensure proper airflow and choose components that don't consume too much power. I used an air cooler like the Noctua NH-U9S for cooling, which was efficient and took up minimal space.

I've read a great TechReviewer article What Is the TDP of the Ryzen 5 4600GE CPU? discussing various CPUs' TDPs and PPT limits, including the Ryzen 5 4600GE. It provides useful information on how to select components based on these specs.

@bcsilver That's good to know. What about choosing a power supply? Should I go for one with higher wattage?

The article What Is the TDP of the Ryzen 5 4600GE CPU? also talks about selecting the right power supply based on your system's requirements. It suggests considering other factors like efficiency, reliability, and noise level when picking a PSU.

In my experience with SFF builds, it's crucial to strike a balance between performance and space constraints. For instance, I used an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X in a small form factor build without any issues. It had a higher TDP, but the right cooler and power supply made it work.

@GTSportsman That's helpful, thanks! But what about the Ryzen 5 4600GE specifically? I'm still unsure if it will be suitable for my SFF build.

From my understanding, the TDP and PPT limit of the Ryzen 5 4600GE should not pose any issues in an SFF build as long as you choose the right cooler and power supply according to the specifications. It's important to ensure proper airflow and case design to maintain optimal CPU temperature.

@FuzzySets Thanks for your advice, everyone! Based on these discussions, I think I'll go ahead with the Ryzen 5 4600GE in my SFF build. I'll be sure to choose a quality cooler, power supply, and ensure proper airflow within my case.
