This focus on value and power consumption is extremely refreshing and 'real world', far more relevant than just about every other tech review channel.

To be fair I have a power meter on my computer, and the electricity my computer uses is nothing compared to the rest of the house. Heating Oven Refrigitator is like 99% of the electric bill here.

[@guy197]

I upgraded to the 5700X from a 3900X a few months ago. What a joy of a CPU. The low power consumption sold me on it. I know a lot of people couldn't care less, but for me, seeing my system power draw drop by 50w, while actually gaming faster, cooler and quieter, brings a smile. Update: Looking at the responses to my post, seems some people can't get over why anyone would swap a 12 core CPU for 8 Core. I've personally regretted buying a 12 core CPU. When you use a PC for hi res single player games, no competitive MP, no 1080p, no productivity software, the only thing 12 cores get you is heat and noise, and lowering heat and noise is a priority for me. Now my games run 15% faster, 20 degrees cooler, 10 dB quieter and use up less electricity. And when the time comes to upgrade again, unless there's a real advantage for 12 cores in the way I use the system, I'll go, once again, for the lowest power draw 8 core CPU that gets the job done.

That is not an upgrade it’s a side grade. You literally went from 12 cores and 24 threads to 8 cores and 16 threads. That makes no sense at all. If you needed just better gaming performance than the 5800x3d would have made alot more sense or a 5950x at least.

Great review. I built my rig based on the rizen 5700g/b550 Christmas 2021 at £259. I'm so glad I did. It's allowed me to play games albeit at 1080p res on my 1440p monitor at very reasonable fps. When I eventually get a 1440p GPU for a decent price hopefully before summer. The PCI express being only 3x won't make much difference. Maybe TYC should review the 8core 5700g. Very low tdp & bundled with amd cooler. Plus it's even cheaper now at £170

[@TobbeBoll]

The PCI is gen 3 not 3x, think it supports 24x total or something

I just picked up the 5700x for $265AUD to replace my 3600. I was contemplating either the 5800x3d or 5900x but they were double the price of the 5700x and for a mixed use family gaming and work computer the performance increase just didn't scream double. The notional saving can either go towards cost of living (I feel like a pelican - no matter where I look there's always an enormous bill right in front of my face) or towards replacing my 1660 Super for something that will run 1080p ultra at 100+ fps for a couple of years.

Paired it with the Arctic Freezer A35 cooler which was on sale at time of purchase - almost like it was ordained or something. Having no problems OCing the RAM to 3800/CL16 either so the memory controller is superb as well. I was intending for it to be a bit of a placeholder until 5800X3D came down in price (it was more than the 5900X!) but I bumped my res up to UW1440p and plan on moving up to UW1600p at some point so it makes little sense to do so now.

[@quantumjank3091]

Hey long time viewer first time commenter here. Love the content. Excellent points about the value the AM4 platform still has in it. However I would caution that if it's for a system you'd like to last 5 years buy a spare MOBO and/or have a good warranty and back-up plan in case of MOBO failure. Tech KZbinrs focus on forward compatibility but what if your MOBO dies just out of warranty and because it's an older platform you have to pay a premium to get a working MOBO back? I would love to see someone say "at least if your mobo dies in 3 years there'll still be availability of compatible MOBOs readily available. I had a customer spend close to $800 AUD for me to fix their PC under these circumstances and it took me a week to find an ebay MOBO that would replace the failed one (after a TON of testing to rule out all the other components I could with parts on hand). I hate having to pay scalper price for 3 - 5 year old motherboard. Said customer spent $3k AUD on system to begin with and was perfectly happy with it until the MOBO died so it was worth it to them to spend $800 on me for parts and labour to just get it back to how it was! DDR4 RAM will go up in price as it becomes more uncommon in the next few years as will legacy MOBOs for even AM4 that AMD did a stellar job of supporting as long as it did...

I am wondering the lower score that was shown in your vid, it might be stock? Because that's what I got at stock settings. For undervolting, I used Premium boost overdrive (or pbo) at 100, 65, 120 as my settings and all cores with curve optimizer set at -30 all set from my asus b550 motherboard. Of course this took me a few hours to play around in amd ryzen master with what the best settings are. Temps are around 29-37 degrees when nothing is happening, 60-65 degrees on full load if it's a highly cpu intensive gaming/program (49-55 if less intensive). I'm also using aio cooler arctic liquid freezer II 280 that's about almost 4 years old and does it's job well.

I'm curious did you mean DDR5 because apparently from PC Particker most of the AM 5 boards only at set DDR5 which so for me to upgrade I would have to swap out my motherboard in a new CPU get a new type of ram and get a whole new cooler because apparently my cooler doesn't fit the board. But for me I just don't see the wharf upgrading to the 7000 series because it could cost me double than getting a better cpu on am4

[@BlueRobotMiner]

Also I just want to say your video was really helpful because I was debating between the Ryzen 7 5700x or the Ryzen 7 5800x3D

[@321backlip]

My 3700x reaches 110w max with full PBO tuning. Why didn't you include the 3700x in your charts?

[@No1BRC]

Nice, I'll upgrade my 1800x to a 5700x soon as well. It's amazing that the boost will be immense while running cooler.

[@helipocitac]

I have it and its absolute blessing. Upgraded from 3 1200

[@Elinzar]

For the AliExpress cooler showdown, you will have some of the Alseye coolers? I mean they probably suck loads of ass but the M90 or what i call "the cube" looks really neat with its internal 90mm fan and have a really tasteful rgb implementation as well (not over the top)

[@poppasteve2976]

Just bought one of these along with a B550 motherboard to upgrade my 2700x system. Haven't installed it but I'm looking forward to the increases.

[@Marlonlon1991]

Would love to know the exact memory timings you used with these cpus? cl16 or cl18?

[@robertkubrick3738]

5600 nonx and I use cl14 ram. Mushkin Lumina 3600 cl14 ram is $60 for 2x8 so I bought two sets to clock to 3733.

[@dimintordevil7186]

would tech yes city prefer a 180 usd(used like new too for gaming only ) 5700x or 120 usd (used only for gaming - working like new ) 5700G ?? what if they would be paired with rx 6800xt or rtx 3080 ti ? Also would you prefer a 32GB of ram 3600 cl 16 or 16gb ram of cl14 same price (paired with cpu's listed above if both of them were very closely priced with a difference of 25 dollars at most )??

[@awdrifter3394]

For the cooler most 120mm tower style cooler will do. The TR Assassin is like $20. You can turn on PBO2 for some more performance.

[@exia7684]

5600x or 5700x for gaming and light productivity tasks? I have a 3700x. The 5800x3D would be the ultimate AM4 CPU but it costs an arm and a leg from where I'm from. I'm leaning towards the 5700x, then I could sell the 3700x and get more and faster ram. They are close in terms of fps but could the 5600x last longer than the 5700x?

[@Chris-se6yh]

Any new Xeons coming back to the channel?

[@forever_nooob]

This cpu is awesome, i use Curve Optimizer and put +200 mhz, and under volt all core -25. Low temps, low fan noise, but i have question. What are safe peak voltages for this cpu? I set ppt to 90, tdc to 68 and edc to 90, with this increased power limit i got 4.550 mhz on all cores in cinebench instead 4.175-4.2mhz on default.

[@MarioAPN]

PPT 140 TDC 90 EDC 130 curve optimizer all-negative 25 (with -30 there are problems, BSOD, freeze...) scalar auto boost clock override +50 I am cooling it with 1 arctic P12 pwm fan on LC-CC 120. Hwinfo 64 says, during stress test, and it was 1 hour of occt, large data set, extreme, avx2 enabled, all core clock 4.7 GHz, below 80 degrees with that small cooler and one 120mm fan, voltages up to 1.24V. Not more. Honestly, the cpu is a beast. Total cpu package power consumption 110W. Why did I choose only +50MHz? Cause of cooling. If I had at least dark rock pro or some 240aio, I would have pushed it. Don't get me wrong, it really works for 4.85 GHz all core boost, but on that small cooler, nah. Again, super ultra happy. All of that on my asrock b450m pro 4 and ddr4 16gb 3000 ram. There is still so much to improve, 4 sticks of 3600 cl16 would help even more in my case. Bigger cooler too, unfortunately I would have to buy the new case. Xfx 6950xt is massive. Zero room.

[@batsey2678]

If you already have a 5600x is it not really worth upgrading to the 5700x would you be best getting the 5800x3d?

[@penguin5384]

Man that CPU's box looked like it had been opened by a 5 year old on Christmas morning.

[@JotaCeeRD]

Coming from a ryzen 5 2600 on the same B450 motherboard I bought back on 2018, I can say this is one of the best upgrades I did. It is an amazing cpu! and for 190 is a steal!

[@KatalistProductionsKozzySasha]

Upgraded from 2600x and a B450 board to, had it for about a month now and LOVING it!

[@JotaCeeRD]

@@KatalistProductionsKozzySasha That's amazing! Hope you enjoy it as much as I've been doing it.

[@n_money1019]

Howdy! I got a 5700G for my build. I thought it’d help with the on board graphics (video editing) and it’s a beast in gaming! It’s amazing paired with a 3080 :)

[@lamjac88]

Im stuck budget wise on a B350 mobo, so I'm looking at savingup and getting this CPU to pair with my rx5700 pulse

[@pokepokepoke64]

The low power consumption and temps made it great for my itx pc build. I have a 3080 ftw3 ultra and a 5700x In a dan a4 h20 and a 240mm aio. Neither of the components go above 65 degrees

[@user-FucXYou]

One of it's good feature is it doesn't exploded and your not discouraged to use xmp on your memory.

[@JR-cm9sh]

why the f would u have a red background with red bars on top to show avg fps...

[@Teh_Monk]

I used this chip in my daughter’s first gaming rig. Only used Intel up to that point and so had no idea what to expect. What a beast it has turned out to be. It’s proven to be so good that it convinced me to go AMD for my own rig I recently built.

[@mapesdhs597]

What did you get for your own rig in the event? Just being nosey. :D

[@Teh_Monk]

@@mapesdhs597 I got myself the 7600X and absolutely love it so far.

[@wiggy2265]

Just picked one up for my build

[@strydyrhellzrydyr1345]

Does anyone know . Is that a CPU... That has integrated graphics... Just in case...if not.. which Ryzen do have it

[@prophetgoogle7071]

Planning to upgrade but still waiting for the prices to go down further.(hoping)

[@mysticmago7613]

I went with an under-volted Ryzen 5700x for my "TradeBot" PC, automated trading of the futures market. Runs cool all week, non-stop from Sunday evening to Friday afternoon.

[@RMKFfm319]

Are any of your 5700X's stable with a negative curve optimizer of -25 to -28 and still achieve 4.8 GHz singlecore and 4.3 GHz allcore or did i hit a jackpot with mine ?

[@MarioAPN]

I hit 4.85 all core boost with -25 all cores curve optimizer on a cheap asrock b450m pro 4

[@syncmonism]

The 5600 or 5600X (virtually identical) needed to be in these benchmarks, because it is well known that they perform about the same as the 5700X and 5800X in most games, and they are both significantly cheaper. People need to know whether (and to what extent) the performance advantages are of having two more cores, and for which games it makes a difference.

[@syncmonism]

I would guess that a 5700X is starting to make more sense for a gaming PC now, especially because the only upgrade option you have for gaming on an AM4 board is to go up to the rather expensive 5800X3D, so, given that a lot of people will probably want to try to make their Zen 3 cpu last a bit longer on this platform (because there are no more advanced architecture cpus available for Zen 4), having 8-cores might matter a bit more for "future proofing" to some extent. Also, some games do seem to run better on an 8-core Zen 3 CPU vs. a 6-core Zen 3 CPU. Still, as far as I can tell, most games run about the same on 6-core Zen 3 CPUs, and the games which do run better on an 8-core are not likely to see a meaningful difference with a more mid-ranged GPU, and even with a high-end GPU, the performance difference is not likely to be that big (not nearly as big as the difference in the number of cores).

[@Username_CC_]

I had the same question because the 5600 is 50 bucks cheaper!

[@speedus98]

Had to laugh as you have a GPU thats probally way better than mine as a coaster for your mug , thanks for the Tech info as per norm :D

[@forthewin3910]

Wow i was able to get this cpu on sale a couple of months ago. Glad it was a good buy.

[@djsnowpdx]

As the owner of a 5950X tested both in and out of Game Mode, SMT on and off, and Eco Mode on and off, I have the next best thing to personal experience that the 5700X is a great CPU. Hardware Unboxed found this CPU to be faster than the Core-i5 13400. I find that my 5950X plays all my games extremely well most of the time, with the usual exceptions: adequate Cities Skylines performance is unobtainable, The Just Cause games stutter when you drive around quickly on the ground, particularly Just Cause 3, and GemCraft is capped at 30 FPS anyway. For more average games, Surviving Mars, Need for Speed: Heat, NFS Unbound, Forza Horizon 4/5... I'm GPU-bound with a fairly stable 90 FPS or higher, and I rate performance as functionally perfect. You don't need more CPU performance than this for gaming, outside of specialized scenarios, and $200 or less is a good price for this class of CPU. If you're thinking of getting a better CPU than this, you should either be upgrading an existing AM4 system, looking to build a cheap workstation with a Core-i5 13500 or 13600K, or you should be looking at AM5.

[@betaunknown]

Bought VRM-B2 stepping 5700X and it does -30 all core in PBO offset and manages 4.8ghz boost in gaming.

[@valt1337]

why did you include i3 12100 and not an i5 12k series ?? so we can see the real competitor for this cpu..

[@choppergirl]

On the high end CPUs all you have to do is set in the BIOS the max temp you want it to run at. I set mine to 80C, but you can chose 75C or anything at all. You can also set the max wattage limit.. I set mine to 140w. So far I idle around 45C for the most part and just hit my artificial temperature while when I render videos. If you don't render videos, you don't need the extra 8 cores. Battlefield 2042 though did use all 16 of my cores, but most games probably just use 4 or 8 cores. I prefer the AIO water cooloers because they dump the heat out of yoru case, not just stir it around inside like a box cooler.

In my country we currently have a game (COH3) bundled if you bought the 5000 AMD chip which is really nice cause I just started building my 3rd
