  • Massive FPS boost and CPU-bottleneck alleviation around animal pens in Minecraft
Style: Desktop Processor
The 32MB of L3 cache on the 5600 and the strong single-core performance (I know, not cutting-edge single core perf. anymore in 2023, but still...) made this CPU a lifesaver for my framerate in modded Minecraft around the animal pens in my base (the kind of scenario where Minecraft proves to be the most CPU-bottlenecked experience of any PC game, in my experience). I upgraded to this from a Ryzen 7 1700, and noticed a drastic difference in performance with otherwise the same hardware. Here's the rundown of the performance difference I experienced from upgrading from Ryzen 7 1700 to Ryzen 5 5600 (see also the picture): [] ~30% improvement to 0.1% lows in Unigine Superposition @ 1080p Extreme (This means, much more stable framerate without stutters) [] ~12% improvement to 0.1% lows in MSI Kombustor MSI-01 OpenGL test 1080p (This means, more stable framerate without stutters) [] ~46% across-the-board improvement to average framerate, 1% lows, and 0.1% lows in Minecraft running what I call "The chicken test" (simulates lag around lots of active mobs) [] ~19% across-the-board improvement to average framerate, 1% lows, and 0.1% lows in Horizon Zero Dawn at 1080p Ultra Quality/Max settings [] ~51% single-core performance uplift in Cinebench R23 [] ~23% multi-core performance uplift in Cinebench R23 All in all the Ryzen 5 5600 is a fantastic budget upgrade if you have an older AM4 system. The motherboard being used here is an ASRock B450M A/C R-2.0. I have just upgraded the RAM now too and endeavor to see what the performance difference is with faster-clocked RAM versus the older RAM speeds on the 5600 that were same as what the Ryzen 7 1700 was running at. ... show more

  • Best value mid-range CPU for it's generation. High value for Low to Medium systems.
Style: Desktop Processor
As of this review I have already upgraded as planned to a 5800x3d with an aftermarket cooler and used those for a while but here is my review from memory. The 5600 and X variant DO NOT have on-board graphics if you are building with that in mind please look at the 5600g variant or a newer APU. This CPU was a massive upgrade for me in gaming and even more for productivity from a very old Intel CPU so take that with a grain of salt. In gaming this is a very powerful CPU for the vast majority of people. If you are gaming under 144hz and on a budget this is easily one of the best you can get from this generation. This is continually one of, if not the highest, value cpu's as it comes with a very beefy performance for its cost and a cooler all in one package. I had near-flawless performance when used on my 144hz 1440p monitor in most of my games. I generally reduce in-game settings to accommodate higher framerate which does often reduce CPU load as well but reducing max framerates to 120 and more-so 90 at comparable settings would be even more ideal if going for higher settings or a smoother 1% framerate experience for fast games. Productivity - I had two monitors and often I watch videos, streamers, chat with friends and browse(browsers can be quite CPU intensive at times due if not using hardware-encoding which in my case I did not due to compatibility issues with other software) All-in-all if you are building a new system, you may want to look at the newer AMD 7600 lineup as it is very similar, but if squeezing out a smaller budget with a very good sale or a used purchase, the 5600 will last you at minimum 4 years without issue. ... show more

  • Its a good cpu
Style: Desktop Processor
This is my second time buying this cpu. Sadly the first one died on me, it had to be overclocked to run and eventually it needed to overheat to even work or turn on and it just eventually wouldn't boot. So after carefully deliberating whether it was ram, motherboard or cpu, I bought ram, it didn't work. Went to the drawing board and did more tinkering and decided it had to be the cpu as said above. It's a very good cpu, but not entirely sure on quality, could've just been bad. Enable ReBar, PBO and XMP and you're good to go. Best paired with an AIO, with the original fan, it hit temps of 86c. Not good for me. AIO got me running 36c average and about 44c active and jumping to 50c occasionally. It hits advertised speeds and runs everything well. However I've noticed my usage does spike pretty high with what I run. So if you're a pretty heavy user, something a bit bigger might be better. I haven't run into performance issues with any games. At max 70% to 76%. Most times running around 20 to 30%. If you can get this cpu for about 115$, grab it. I wouldn't pay more than 120$. ... show more
