AMD Ryzen 5 5600G vs AMD Ryzen 9 3900X

0 solid-state boot drive paired with a Samsung SSD 860 QVO SATA secondary drive. The processor was cooled using the Wraith Stealth air cooler included in the box.

)! In other words, the AMD system uses 45Watts MORE than their rated TDP, than the Intel system That's not very good publicity for AMD! I can't wait to upgrade this CPU to something more efficient! This thing is garbage, compared to Intel 12nm cpus! Edit: Upon further investigation, it turns out that the stock cooler that comes with this CPU, is the reason of the poor performance, and is total garbage! The CPU isn't all to blame. The stock cooler plate, has large areas that don't touch the CPU lid (in between the heat pipes)! Under load it was thermal throttling and reducing clock speed to a mere 700MHZ on all cores!!! Serious flaw! I did find a 65W ECO setting in the BIOS, that enabled me to run all cores at 3,1Ghz on the stock cooler, about 1Ghz below it's rated speed! However, once I installed a $160 water cooling solution, the system ran at a steady 3,78-3,85Ghz at the full 105Watts (probably closer to 160W), and 3,5Ghz at 65Watts. The ECO mode is very good, once the CPU is cooled sufficiently, and still offers the same boost speeds as stock 105W, when only a few cores are active

Still when compared to the 5700g, it was just three percent slower, although it was nine percent slower than the 5600x next up. We have borderlands 3,...

Phenomenal CPU, absolutely crushes Intel's 9900k (which is roughly the same price) at most tasks. Intel does have a slightly higher base clock speed so it has a slight edge on single core benchmarks - though this 3900x has plenty of room for overclocking and exceeds the Intel at single core tasks for the same clock speed. The extra cores and threads on this CPU set it above the rest for real-world tests and multicore benchmarks. Excellent CPU for streaming, gaming, video editing/rendering, and just about anything else

I did go into the bios and i overclocked this to 4.5 gigahertz on all six cores. Remember the base boost clock on this is 4.4, so we're over that boos...

Four point: three gigahertz a time reduction of about 4 % like the r5 3600 reviewed, the RO 9:30 isn't a huge overclock, but we couldn't get it to 4.4...

The Intel I5 11400 with B560 motherboard is probably a better value at the moment but consumes a little more power and does not offer much in the way of upgrade path. Keep in mind that any Intel "k" series processor does not have integrated graphics.

Let me first disclaim that my 1-star negative review is not directed towards the Ryzen 3900x CPU, as I have not even got to the point of even trying out this CPU yet! My issues are directed towards Amazon and how they are handling their products. I have been working with computers nearly my entire life, I am in my 30s now and begun as far back as I can remember at least 4 years old, I am no stranger to installing hardware and no stranger to fiddling with hardware either, I have been an intel loyalist for the better half of ten years due to issues I always ran across in the mid-2000s with AMD. Any product I got AMD related I had issues and issues and issues with, which is why I made the swap to intel originally years back, to avoid issues, so I was not on good terms with AMD when swapping from intel back to AMD with the Ryzen 3900x, I figured though I would give it a chance, on first glance the CPU looked good, although I did not take a detailed look before installing, as the box was shrink wrapped(poorly mind you). The CPU installed fairly simply, the computer booted up as normal, posted and went straight to bios, this is where my problems started, I noticed the CPU temps in the BIOs was a little high, which I googled to find an avg, my thermals were much higher than the avg thermals for this CPU idling in the bios, considering all fans and everything else was running properly

I was a little weirded out by that, but the seller came through and the chip is legit and arrived brand new in box with stock cooler, instructions, and foil badge sticker. You should pair this APU with a good mobo and memory. I chose the MSI B550 MPG Gamer Edge WiFi, and TeamGroup DDR4 3600. The mobo will be critical in determining your possible upgrade paths, and the memory is used by the AMD APUs to help with the graphics

2/1.25 or a number in between that - You don't need AIO/water cooled but just a beefy regular air cooler, I recommend Dark Pro 4(Noctua U12S is basically the same thing). Unless you want to overclock/OC, there's no need for water cooled(I personally think stock speeds is plenty) - Make sure to verify that your Motherboard is compatible with the 3000 series of Ryzen. My MOBO was on F5, which is about 10 updates behind, and had to reinstall my previous CPU to update my BIOS

Go into the Omen Gaming Hub and overclock the CPU. I literally can't tell if there's been a difference in performance, but it feels cool to say "yah, my CPU is overclocked."

Starting a new build and I’m looking to overclock a Ryzen 9 3900x and a 5700XT (or higher).
