AMD Ryzensets 5 5600X Processor (6 Cores/12Threads, 65W TDP, AM4 Socket, 35MB Cache, up to 4.6 GHz Max Boost, Wraith Stealth Cooler)

I don't fully know technology however it is what it is, it's a fast CPU that I paired with a Radeon RX 7700XT which work perfect together. Like normally, it's an easy CPU to put in with the heatsink. The heatsink provided works great, but I used a larger heatsink with two fans instead. You can play most modern games at Ultra settings 1080p at 100fps, or 60fps at 4K with a good GPU pair. It can pull very little power when not in full load, and does pull upwards of 65W when at ~90% usage. Great CPU for the price.

Good CPU with a good price and more than okay performance. With an Nvidia 4060 video card, any modern computer game works great with ultra for the 1920 X 1080 resolution. Graphic design (3D) works well - rendering on CPU (I use GPU rendering, but just to get an idea). Bought it several times for building new PC for me and others. After more than a year, still doing the job (2025).

Amazing processor

This is a good affordable CPU, it’s easy to install and works well. For the price, the speed of it is great. It looks fine, as any CPU would and the size is standard. I can’t comment on the cooler that came with it as I tend to buy a cooler master instead as they are much better. So far I have been using the CPU for 4 years and I’ve had no issues with it whatsoever.

I love this CPU so much, the performance is great, super easy to assemble, provides really good graphics and very power efficient. However, I nust say that the CPU Stock cooler is really BAD. It has started to make some weird noises just after a few days that's why I'm upgrading to an AIO cooler instead. Overall, it's worth it.

Most titles I play are Warzone, Forza Horizon 4 and 5, Modern Warfare 2, Halo Infinite, GRID Legends, F1 2022, Apex Legends and Fortnite. The system can play all the above-mentioned titles at 1080p High settings and hit 100 fps and higher without breaking a sweat. Divinci Resolve is super quick for editing and rendering and overall the system is super fast, very responsive and gaming performance is outstanding! just need to get a 1440p monitor of my own but testing a 1440p monitor for my youtube channel the gaming performance was very playable. I hope this helps Jezy

Good price

I had been procrastinating for months on whether to upgrade my ryzen 5 2600 cpu as I play intensive games such as Warzone etc which are pretty demanding. Finally decided to pull the trigger as there wasn’t much chance of finding a sensibly priced graphics card for gains so I took a chance on the CPU with my current 2060. The results were incredible! First of all I had struggled for 100fps at 1440p on my old Ryzen 5 2600 with the 2060 so I wasn’t really expecting to gain a massive amount of frames. How wrong I was, the frames immediately jumped to a steady 120fps at 1440p on my original game settings and after tweaking the settings I was able achieve 140fps at 1440p in Warzone with Ultra settings and DLSS turned on and much higher in Cold War multiplayer. Quite the jump in performance and rendering time improved massively. Pretty much everything on my pc from work to gaming to browsing is now super fast and boot up times are pretty staggering. All in all the Ryzen 5 5600X has been the best upgrade I have purchased in years and has saved me from spending more on a new graphics card during these difficult times which I don’t really need just yet and it has paired perfectly with my trusty 2060 which has benefited greatly from the upgrade. If you think your frames are low for the card you have, it’s likely the cpu is holding you back which was the case for me and I highly recommend the Ryzen 5 5600X as it’s an absolute beast of a cpu.
