Customer Ratings & Reviews

Decent price and good performance cpu nice a good compermise between lower higher points of price and performance.

Lightning fast single core performance. Upgraded to this from an Intel I5 - 9400 and the difference is massive. Best value processor on the market right now. High end gaming has been no problem with this.

Very good Cpu. The 5600x Is probably the best Value you can get for gaming right now. New Ryzen is the BEST you can get for most games at the moment

For the price, the performance is way above what the value of this is. If you're on a budget, this CPU is for you!

Amazing upgrade over prior gen intel, AMD has been knocking it out of the park. May buy again for a second HTPC tho am considering the 5600G as well once they are available. The 5600X is quite a price hike over the prior gen 3600 which made me consider docking a point, but after so many years with low margins aa the budget alternative to intel its understandable why they are upping the price to increase margins while they have the advantage. Bottom line is its sucj a good performer it is still the best bang per buck CPU at this price point. That AMD doesnt have a 5600 at a cheaper $199 price point is not a knock on the 5600X ecen if its a weakness in the product stack.

The AMD Ryzen 5 processor series offers impressive performance and value for mid-range PC builds. With multi-core processing and efficient power consumption, it excels in gaming, content creation, and multitasking. Enhanced with advanced features like Precision Boost and Ryzen Master, it delivers an excellent user experience, making it a top choice for enthusiasts on a budget.

What an amazing CPU. It gets all the games I want in great FPS and definition. Battle field 6, warzone, fifa, fortnite all runs amazingly. I have stress tests and it ranks hire than most more expensive CPUs. I highly recommend.

Everything you could ever want with a CPU. It won't break the bank, plus it's really good for gaming. I've had it for a month and no complaints so far.

Amazing cpu for price to performance for gaming. (Temps also never went above 60c) If your looking for a great gaming cpu for value definitely consider this as your top option.

Arguably the best cost to value chip on the market right now. Paired with higher end cards and this thing performs well above its weight class.

Great CPU, beats anything in the price range and it blows my mind that this is in stock and under retail. Best price to performance cpu. Used it in two of my builds with a 3070 and 2070.

This CPU is strong. Paired it with a AMD radeon RX 6600 and everything is smooth in games.

Amazing processor. You can’t go wrong with the ryzen brand. The 5600x is the best bang for buck you can get on a budget or even your main rig

This CPU pretty much sells itself when it comes to the price to performance ratio. You'd only find it lacking in simulation heavy games like Cities Skylines 2 or ultra high fps where you are trying to saturate a 480hz monitor. I would say that this could be a decent match for anything up to a RTX 4070 Ti Super / RX 7900XT.

Most high-end CPU I have ever bought. It was a massive upgrade from my i5 6600k that was OC. Currently, my GPU is an RX 580 8GB so it is bottlenecking it pretty decently on most things but when it comes to CPU intensive games like csgo this gave me a huge fps/smoothness boost. It runs every map amazingly smooth at stock speed with OC ram to 3200 mhz. I also played around on some open-world games like the witcher 3 and was able to run it smoothly on max settings at 1440p on the main game. DLC was a bit different. Also runs GTA V very smoothly with the RX 580. Shout out to best buy for making it much easier to buy than Newegg and Amazon. If you wanna beat the bots definitely get this at Best Buy.

the performance of this CPU is really well and it’s not even expensive I definitely recommend it for anyone just starting

Powerful CPU, with plenty of performance. Easy to install, and comes with the wraith CPU cooler. Decent cooler unless you are trying to overclock.

This is a beast of a cpu for a low price. You dont need anything more tbh if your a gamer this and an amd gpu with sam enabled and your having fun

Haven't used an AMD CPU since the mid/late 90's AMD K6 days... wasn't disappointed with this one. Very good CPU, great performance, runs cool under normal workloads, very responsive. Not sure I actually see an improvement from the i7 2600, but they're similar clock speeds and number of cores, faster RAM and PCIe-16 etc. Good enough for my requirements I guess.

Great processor! If you game, this is probably the best and most cost efficient processor at this time. Does not make sense to pay more and buy one step up from here.
