Perfect mid range cpu for a mid range build. Also it’s a good bang for your buck compared to the Intel 12th Gen comparison

Easily the best $300 CPU on the market today. It will beat anything that Intel can offer currently and trade blows with their flagship that's over $500. I was a lucky one recipient of a higher grade 5600x mine can OC to 4.9 GHz stable. If he can find one at MSRP $300 buy it now.

Best Bang For the Buck Processor (Intel AND AMD)

At $300, this is probably the best bang for the buck current-gen processor you can buy as of January 2021.
It matches Intel 10900k and 10700K in gaming performance as well as the higher spec'd 5800X and 5900X. It's also incredibly power-efficient. Not to mention that the included cooler is pretty good so you don't really need to purchase a 3rd party CPU cooler.
As long as you're not bottlenecked by your GPU, this baby will treat you well. This will handle your RTX 3060ti/RX 6800 nicely and won't even bottleneck an RTX 3090/RX 6900XT.

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
