Customer Ratings & Reviews

For the price of this cpu the performance is amazing! Paired with my 3070 AORUS master my pc is now unstoppable! Highly highly recommend for regular gaming! Best price for performance out there right now!

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

I bought this processor when my Ryzen 5 3600 failed (computer crashing and rebooting randomly, also failed stress test). So far, this Ryzen 5 5600x has been running great and is compatible with Windows 11. I use it to play various Steam games and it handles them with ease. The motherboard I use with this processor is the Aorus Pro Wifi B450, but it’s important to note that since it was only advertised as Ryzen 3000 ready, it needed to have the BIOS updated so it could accept Ryzen 5000 series processors (proceed with caution with this task).

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.

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.

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!

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

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 cpu for entry level gaming. Works great and is fast.

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.

has been working great so far no need to upgrade anytime soon despite being a am4 its still a beast

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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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 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

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.
