"Unlike the current AM5 Ryzen chips with 3D cache, the Ryzen 5 5500X3D is not unlocked, which means its modest clocks cannot be overclocked beyond stock values."
Wait, are we sure about that, because that contradicts its very model name. The "X" in Ryzen names MEANS it is unlocked. The "3D" part refers to processors with 3D V-Cache onboard.
Examples:
Ryzen 5 5600 (locked)
Ryzen 5 5600X (unlocked, higher clockspeeds generally)
Ryzen 5 5600X3D (unlocked, 3D V-Cache equipped)
