Really fast processor. Can’t beat the performance/price ratio. Worth the price IMO

Best value AMD processor. Perfect for gaming and productivity.

This is a good cpu for gaming, and in general pretty much everything else. Runs cool also

Fantastic CPU if you can find it in stock. Excellent price to performance. Does not create a bottleneck when gaming on the 3090. I also enabled Precision Boost Overdrive in order to undervolt the CPU. Result was no reduction in performance, but a more power efficient CPU and lower thermals.

Had to wait a long time to get it but has been worth it on my new build, fast and reasonably priced

Great price to performance. Pairs great with a 6600 xt or a 6700 xt

great Cpu for the price, can be paired with most graphics cards except the most high end ones above the $600 price range with just barely a small bottleneck or non at all. doesn't put out too much heat, even a 120mm aio can keep it quite cool during gaming.

I upgraded from a ryzen 5 2600 and this cpu has already made a massive difference in performance Warzone was beginning to become unplayable on my old cpu this increased the performance dramatically the only problem with it so far is it runs pretty hot with the stock cooler so I would definitely look into getting a better cpu cooler.

Very pleased with this processor. Paired it with a low to mid-range discrete graphics card and I'm playing my favorite games on high settings with zero lag or stutters. Didn't install the stock cooler but from what I hear and past experience with other AMD coolers, I would assume it too is great. Strongly endorse this chip if you're just getting into PC gaming or looking for a good upgrade to an older setup.

This things a beast. Upgraded from and 3600. Gets a little warm when boosted. Im using an h100i with high cfm fans venting out of the top and still hit 75c in games. But heats not a huge issue these days. Low wattage use, and great performance across the board

Great budget proccesor for the price. Great frames

Delivering noticeable performance increases over Zen 2's 3600 at a comparable price, AMD's Ryzen 5 5600X is a solid upgrade for budget builders who can afford to spend a little bit more for the latest generation of CPUs. *Note* Be aware of the BIOS configuration of your motherboard before installing Zen 3 CPUs; some may require BIOS updates.

A good processor for gaming out of the box and has a good potential of overclocking.

Honestly not a bad CPU would recommend for beginners.

Great cpu fast and affordable. It seems to out perform a lot of intel models

Great cpu. Highly recommend. Great price as well. Would purchase again.

Decent performance for not alot of cash. Beats intel performance and price.

Great CPU, works really well. was a true upgrade from my old Intel.

Very fast and easy to set up just replace the cooler it isn't sufficient for this powerful budget cpu
