Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have not had any problems or major performance tanks with this processor, and I can fairly say that it is one of if not the best bang for buck processor on the market.

A huge jump from a 2600x in some games. Honestly for the money if your want to game and don't have alot of overhead on background tasks this is the best gaming cpu for the money.

Bought. this gaming computer for my daughter when it was time to upgrade her PC. It arrived quickly and was a great price for the product. Would recommend!

Purchased this for a small micro atx build out for my brother using an Aorus B550M MicroATX motherboard. Using a Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 low profile cooler, the 5600x boosted to 4.6ghz all core and max temps never exceeded 80 under load with CB20 and scored a very respectable 4381 beating the 4114 my heavily overclocked 5.3ghz 8086k right out of the box with no tweaks or overclocks using the exact same 3200 B-Die Dual Rank 2x8GB memory. I won't be overclocking it or tweaking it upward since this is meant for quiet noise, lower thermals in a more compact case but wow....the performance is excellent. I can just imagine this chip with a larger air cooler or under water.

Outstanding CPU outstanding performance at a fantastic price point.

Awesome processor. Fits the sweet spot in terms of value to performance. Easy install. This is the one to get if you're a new PC builder or you are a hobbyist. Get it!

Really good processor really good for gaming very easy install perfect for whatever you need to go

Really great processor for a budget build. Bought it for $80 last year, and really holds its own to modern games. One of the best AM4 chips you can get for sure

Used in my sisters build paired with a 4060 ti, works great for price

Great cpu for the price. It delivers more than what I need for games.

This processor is awesome! I have had both Intel and AMD CPUs and the AMD processor competes extremely well with great pricing!

Very good cpu, no problem pushing my rtx 3080. Performance is good and the price was definitely right

This is the best value CPU for gaming. The 5600x is the entry level leader and the best value for gaming/streaming. Highly recommended.

Easy install *aside from my brain being simple*, came pre-sauced so no need for thermal paste. Follow the directions included for your specific processor. More than worth the price. After install, it made me realize my graphics card was now lightyears behind because of how beefy the power was

AMD knocked it out of the park. Even moderate games on ultra settings won't get 6 cores working harder than 20%. Worth fighting the scalpers for this series of Ryzen for sure.

This is my first AMD CPU build in a very long time. I was looking to save some money for a good medium performance gaming rig for my virtual pinball machine and I have been quite happy with the performance thus far. I haven't tried to push it outside of stock because it meets the purpose just fine at stock. So far it has been very stable on my MSI B550 gaming board and I haven't come across any compatibility issues in my Windows 10 Pro environment yet. I would definitely recommend it for a mid-range PC build without breaking the bank.

Very good performance for the price. Got this item for a third of the price compared to other stores.

Amazing value CPU! Get it when you can, compared to the pricier ones you should get this one.

Absolute great for value, especially paired with an A520m board. It handles everything I have thrown at it, and is a noticeable upgrade from my previous 1600AF.

Honestly not a bad CPU would recommend for beginners.
