It's a decent chip for everyday tasks; runs modern games 720p; Amazon sent me bent pins
Style: Desktop Processor
I love this little chip. Sips power and does regular computer + modern games pretty well. Quite a generational jump from the days of AMD FX series and the Phenom line. I remember building a comparable machine six or seven years ago using triple core chips on the Phenom line and feeling like i had gotten a pretty decent bargain for good power. These modern Ryzen 5000 chips are a whole new level of performance. Desktop feels peppy with a Samsung 980 SSD and my mATX build is cute and simple. I was able to put the computer together for less than $400 thanks to this APU. I woulnd't recommend this for any serious gaming at 1080+ resolution. Graphics Card prices are low enough now to justify a traditional GPU build. For less intensive use cases, this chip is it. It boosts quite nicely and consitently to 4400mhz and the FSB runs 1:1 with Hynix kit 3600 Cl16 kit I have overclocked to 3733 with tighter timings using Ryzen Dram calculator. Additionally, i used Ryzen Master's Curve Optimizer settings to get even better performance and efficiency. Playing Halo Infinite at 720p lowest settings I'm getting 30-50 fps and with dynamic resolution 60-80fps with the HWmonitor reading 65C. at peak. Not performance i would be satisfied with for competitive play, but that's just not what this APU is for. Using Cinbench R23 this chip will definitely ramp up to 70c. I don't think i've seen it at or near 80c with anything but Prime95 very small fft. The wraith cooler is more than sufficient for this chip. +Quick and Efficient +Low Temps with stock cooler +Value +Lots of Negative Curve Headroom using Ryzen Master +Infinite Fabric can match high ram clocks +60 FPS+ @ 720p gaming in modern games +6 cores, 12 threads feels somewhat future proof +Low Power draw @ 65watts -I'm kinda mad that mine came with three bent pins that i managed to fix. Amazon's fault and i feel kinda cheated.

Perfect starter CPU for a beginner
Style: Desktop Processor
I snagged this CPU back in COVID for $79 and at the time of writing this, it's still a good value for money CPU. The performance of the chip right out the box is amazing and if you know how to do some overclocking, then go right ahead to squeeze as much performance as you need. It's very compact for the AM4 platform and is compatible with any B350 (BiOS update needed), B450 and B550 board for the price. Installing is very straightforward and takes less than 25 seconds. The stock cooler is good as well and keeps it at 70 degrees under load and 60 if you introduce cooler air.

Fast Multi-threaded proc - great value
Style: Desktop Processor
I write this review in the midst of the great chip shortage and video card mining debacle of 2021. In short - my GeForce 980TI failed. Video card prices are through the roof, even the used market has gone stupid. I picked this up after watching some reviews online and reading about it. Lets get right to it. Gaming Performance - I play a mix of games - Elder Scrolls Online (ESO), Diablo II Resurrected, Outer Worlds, and Fallout 4. Stock cooler, stock speeds, motherboard set to XMP profile 2 on my RAM. ESO - 1080p, mix of low and medium settings - 45 - 70 frames per second with 58 being the average. Diablo II Resurrected - 1080p low. 40 - 60 frames per second Outer Worlds - 720p, high and medium mixed settings - 50 frames per second. Fallout 4 - 1080p medium, 50 - 60 frames per second I do not play competitive games like Fortnite or Valorant, though there are plenty of reviews of this chip playing those games on YouTube. So here are the pros and cons: Pros - fast, good chip, excellent multi-thread performance (so if you do any sort of encoding or editing of pics, vids, etc) this thing is super fast, the Vega 7 graphics are good for what they are. This thing overclocks like a champ too, I was able to get it up 4.4ghz with the stock cooler... I wouldn't leave it there, but if you pick up a better cooler this thing would be a rocket. Best of all it slipped right into a my MSI B450 Mortar motherboard after a bios update. Cons - If you want to overclock this thing you need to a better cooler. Period. You also need fast RAM for the best performance out of the both the proc and the video (I would say minimum of 3600mhz RAM... I am using 4400 mhz). The Vega graphics are perfectly fine by my standards (MINE), if you are a competitive gamer and need to have the highest, best, fastest frame rates all the time, then you'd be better off either scouring the used market or waiting for video card prices to return to some form of sanity.

Very nice chip, but be careful
Style: Desktop Processor
Got this when I was building a new PC to replace a five-year-old Ryzen 7 1700X system. The old PC was great performance-wise, I didn't really need to upgrade yet but I was beginning to have crashes periodically ever since moving to dual monitors in late 2020 due to working from home. These were the strangest crashes...no error, no warning, the system would just reboot. It was really annoying, even though with NVMe drives the reboot is quick. It was a mystery whether the problem was caused by the GPU, CPU, memory, the SSD, a driver somewhere, or some combination of all of the above. I figured it was time to pull my system into the modern age with updated interfaces, chip, and motherboard. With GPUs still being ridiculously overpriced, I targeted the Ryzen 7 5700G as a chip that would give me comparable or better performance than my old system but still give me a more modern technology set without needing a GPU. The old PC had an nVidia 1060 but I'd had good luck with its predecessor when I'd run for five years with an AMD A10 APU chip that played games sufficiently well and absolutely manhandled Windows and office apps. But as luck would have it, the 5700G had been dropping in price during my research phase, and right when I went to buy, the price spiked up. Thanks a lot, irrational market! Pondering what to do, I read some comparisons of the 1700X to the 5600G, and the 5600G fared ok. It was close in overall performance and much more efficient and used less power. It did have two fewer cores, but I'm not a streamer or heavy video editor, so I figured I'd give it a crack. Amazon had a third party seller that shipped out of Mexico with the best price...I was a little weirded out by that, but the seller came through and the chip is legit and arrived brand new in box with stock cooler, instructions, and foil badge sticker. You should pair this APU with a good mobo and memory. I chose the MSI B550 MPG Gamer Edge WiFi, and TeamGroup DDR4 3600. The mobo will be critical in determining your possible upgrade paths, and the memory is used by the AMD APUs to help with the graphics. The MSI board will support eventually moving to the 5700G or even 5800 or higher with a GPU. The 5600G installed easily and worked great on first boot. The MSI board supports the 5600G with BIOS version 17 and above and mine came with version 18 installed. So far the system has been stable with none of the weird crashes. I've not pushed the gaming performance yet, just a couple low-demand games. The most visually demanding was Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris...it was sluggish at 4K but fine at 1080 FHD. I'm also running several browser tabs open. The 5600G cost at about $100 less than the what the 5700G was running at the time. So far so good, and I know there are some easy APU/CPU upgrades available in the future but right now I've no need to do so. Update 22-Sep-2022: I am completely despondent now. After running beautifully for two weeks, the random reboots when the system is at idle are now happening to this PC just has it had on my old one. I've read every post I could from others that have had similar issues with Ryzen chips and I'm beginning to think it's a driver issue, but I'm still not 100% sure. This is a nice chip but if it's going to keep crashing I simply can't use it; it's just too maddening to walk away and return a few minutes later and the thing has rebooted. I may have to return the chip or even consider switching to Intel. What a disappointment. Update 24-Sep-2022: Back in action after doing a Windows reset. This is basically reinstalling Windows over your existing install. System is stable again. Very strange. But a few days ago when the issue started it was after I had just gone to the AMD site and installed a bunch of chipset drivers and the Radeon utilities. So I'll stick with the stock drivers Windows installed, and leave the other updates out. The only ones I've applied since getting this PC build are the motherboard BIOS (MSI B550 MPG Gamer Edge WiFi, now currently at BIOS 7C91v1B), various motherboard drivers for the WiFi and Bluetooth, and the MSI Center software so I can easily reference the mobo BIOS and driver versions from Windows. If I get past two weeks without the issue returning then I can say those AMD drivers were likely related, which is unfortunate, if those drivers also bring better performance. But the best feature is stability, so I'll stick with this for now. Also put the star rating to four stars - this is a great performing chip, but that reboot thing is a total bummer when it happens. Update 08-Dec-2022: Running GREAT. Holding back on the drivers was the answer. System is rock solid now, through games, video streaming, and many browser tabs open. Have since run Fallout 4 just fine (it struggled with my dual monitor setup at first, but I think that's a Fallout thing and not the Ryzen chip) at FHD. I regularly put the system to sleep and wake it later; no problems and I'm getting things done at work and play.

The APU King for a Budget Mini-ITX Build
Style: Desktop Processor
This Ryzen 5 5600G was the perfect CPU for the compact PC I built a few years ago. It’s a powerful little 6-Core/12-Thread chip that offers incredible performance for the price. What makes it great for a small system is the integrated Radeon Graphics. This let me postpone buying a dedicated GPU for a long time without sacrificing general usability. It ran everything perfectly on the Gigabyte A520I AC motherboard and was reliably powered by the Thermaltake 650W PSU. If you’re building a small form factor PC or a budget gaming rig, this is the ultimate starting point. It works perfectly to this day and has been rock-solid.
