Which Chipsets Are Compatible With the Ryzen 5 Pro 2400G Processor?

Section Link

For AMD's Zen-based Ryzen 5 Pro 2400G processor, you'll need a motherboard with an AM4 socket and a compatible chipset.

Motherboards for AMD processors are made with chipsets provided by AMD. Each chipset offers a unique set of capabilities. However, motherboards must explicitly support features and capabilities for you to use them. Verify that a motherboard supports the features and capabilities you desire.

Ryzen 2000-series CPUs, which includes the Ryzen 5 Pro 2400G, are compatible with all 300 and 400-series consumer chipsets. Supported chipsets include the X470, B450, X370, B350, and A320.

The X470 and B450 are our recommended chipsets for the Ryzen 5 Pro 2400G CPU, as they provide the most functionality among compatible chipsets.

Note that the Ryzen 5 Pro 2400G CPU only supports PCIe 3.0.

Important considerations regarding this CPU:

AMD's Ryzen Pro CPUs are intended for the business market. They are generally found in pre-built systems and do not support overclocking.

The Ryzen 5 Pro 2400G CPU isn't available in a boxed version. However, you may be able to purchase it in a tray version or as part of a pre-built computer.

Tray versions are sold in bulk, without retail-box packaging. These CPUs are then sometimes sold again, individually.
