If you don’t know what CPU to go with as a beginner building a PC, the 5600x is your best bet! Pocket friendly and very reliable. Easy assembly also!

Revenge of AMD

AMD nailed this CPU cycle. Upgraded my media PC from 8600K to 5600x. Easy 20% ipc gain with 20% power saving. Intel literally has no answer for it, kinda like AMD had no answer for Conroe.
It was refreshing to see a meaningful step forward after a long period of stagnation from x86 world. Hopefully this progress continues.
I just wish AMD had an offering in the entry tier. It's a bit of an overkill for general use.
