Before I built a PC the reddit hivemind kept saying it was as easy as lego. In reality I faced many niggles but it was doable. Why do so many people keep saying a 6 year old can do it! I'm glad you always show the ups and downs of PC building.

[@mikesunboxing]

yes it is a myth that pc building is easy, it is if you have someone experienced to hold your hand through the process, but otherwise there are loads of things that can be problematic

Another great vid Mike I just wanted to share my own experience with this as from stock there's a bit of OC headroom on this chip with some minor tweaks. Make sure you have Ryzen master and latest adrenaline drivers installed. This is based on my test setup of a Gigabyte B550 Gaming X Motherboard + R5 5600G + 3200mhz DDR4 In the Bios : Find the option to force the initial display to IGD Video UMA Mode = UMA Specified UMA FRAME Buffer size = 4G Above 4G Decoding = Enabled Re-Size Bar Support = Auto GFX Frequency = 2200 GFX core Voltage = 1.2 (don't go above this) Precision Boost Override = Advanced PBO Limits = Motherboard if you're overclocking ram (and there are plenty of vids explaining this) My Adata D55 RGB 32000mhz (micron R Die) not great silicon I run at 3466mhz 16-19-19 with the following ; VCORE SOC below 1.2v (I have mine stable at 1.78) DRAM VOLTAGE at 1.36v With the above settings my Heaven benchmark jumped 11fps, and testing COD:Warzone gave an average 56fps which i think is pretty good. From my own testing the better the ram the more you can squeeze out of this processor, My testing is done in an corsair 4000D ATX case with a Wraith Spire RGB cooler and temps don't exceed 60 degrees while gaming. This is the only point were I disagree with Mike as I don't think you need to limit this to an ITX or mATX size, while the 5600G lacks PCIe 4.0 it's not going to have much impact on gaming. Black Friday is not too far away and if you can get this around the £210 mark as I did recently it's an absolute steal.

[@mikesunboxing]

might try some of those tweaks myself, appreciated

Yep, it good. I just built a desktop and used the Ryzen 5 5600G. I have had a lot of problems with GPU's in the past. When my previous PC's have died, it is usually the GPU and power supply that fails. So I saved myself some money this time and bought the Ryzen 5600G, although even using some of my old parts, the build still cost AU$1500.This is the first PC I built myself. AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics 3.90 GHz, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

[@dhanarputra555]

Exactly 2 weeks ago I have my first build on APU (tbh it was my 6th PC Build). I choose 5600G because I have 95% of iGPU performance from 5700G with much lower price. I build 5600G in a slim Micro-ATX case and couldn't be happier because the minimalism, power efficiency and thermal dissipation are properly designed for a sleeper mini/slim case. I'm heavily against those Noctua and 3rd party CPU Cooler because Wraith Spire (old gen with copper core) is better for this APU.

[@mikesunboxing]

Thanks for sharing

[@SciPunk215]

There are many many use cases where you need a decent CPU but have no need for extensive graphics. In this climate, where GPUs are basically unavailable, these APUs are the obvious choice. I don't know why people have a hard time understanding that. The suggestion of buying a used graphics card makes sense for a budget gamer, but is completely unacceptable in any professional situation.

[@mikesunboxing]

i agree totally

[@demivik5812]

i bought one and i love it i'm not really a gamer, so i dont chase after newest games or ultra settings or whatever, but this cpu is enough for me to play gta 5 and others with no trouble at all.

yes it is a really good option and hopefully now intel 12th gen is out we will see some price drops

[@DaBaldMan]

Exactly the same for me bro

[@ridefast0]

Another option is 4750G if you can find one. I did, and it make a great productivity machine. Cooling can be fixed using Delta fans on the Noctua heatsink, if you can stand the noise.

Just built myself a 5600G system, replacing an old FX8320 system with a 1050ti which was not carried over to the new system. Just running on the IGPU, I am very happy with the results I am seeing. It will definitely hold me until GPUs come down to sane levels.

Nice build mike! looking forward to getting my build done this week. Love the ITX Chassis, but the Motherboards are a bit pricey! I'm looking forward to seeing how the 5600G runs for me... I did a ITX build in 2018 that cost me about $300.00 and use it as a media player for movies and audio... have you ever used the "Raijintek" brand? I did the Metis Plus in Gold and absolutely love it! the unit you built is really nice. what are you going to use it for?

[@mikesunboxing]

lots to answer there 😁 yes heard of the brand but not had any components but maybe should take a closer look. the 5600g system is currently in bits. i have a 2200G in the inwin B1 case in the living room for light gaming and media duties, the 5600g was going to replace it but the 2200g is still going strong so seems no point using it there

Very interesting build Mike. Complicated, even after watching 3xs mid section! I get the need for such a small size as still fancy one for bedroom but affordability is my issue. Wud early Ryzen cpu with say gt1030 be better value in say a matx build. Obviously need more room but then the upgrade path exists. Thanks for taking the time to detail the steps necessary.

@@mikesunboxing Are you building on the stream?

[@pageup213]

APU systems are great for those that just want a desktop that can do the every day, without needing to shell out for a graphics card. Really brings down the cost and with modern APU's like this one the performance is actually pretty nice for what you get.

[@mikesunboxing]

Very true!

[@syncmonism]

Nice for what you pay, absolutely. The cpu is roughly equivalent to a Ryzen 3600 (even though it does use the newer Zen 3 architecture), and the GPU is roughly equivalent to the best version of the GT 1030. The price you pay for the GPU gives you very good GPU performance per dollar, and you're also getting fantastic performance per watt, and obviously it also takes up a lot less space than needing to use a discrete graphics card. It's also the best integrated graphics except for the 5700G, which is only slightly better, and costs significantly more (and that's an 8-core CPU which just doesn't make a lot of sense for most people).

Perfect for a tiny PC but I opt for larger Media PC size cases so I can put in a GPU. I run 6600XT/6700XT on my TV PC's. I have a 5600G out in the garage but it has a old GTX1080. I have a $50 5600X in my area that I was considering buying to sell the 5600G but might be a waste of time as I don't game much in the garage and the back up iGPU might come in handy if I eve need to take out the old GTX1080.

[@45eno]

Glad the 5600X deal fell through, the guy had no CPU in the box. Well a few weeks later someone made a $180 offer on one of my 6600XT's so I figured I could temporarily move the 1080 over to replace the 6600XT. In time I will come across a 6700XT/6800XT or better and that will push the 1080 back to the shop PC for its limited gaming demands. Just figured if someone was willing to pay $180 I might as well part with it and hold onto the cash for another deal. This was on a extra Media PC and Shop PC so sell high and buy something better later when a deal pops up. And the 5600 "G" made it possible with that flexibility. I hardly game out in the shop but is nice from time to time and that GTX1080 fits and matches the shop PC great. Plus the 1080 makes for a great back up card for one of the PC's in the house.

[@EldaLuna]

i have the 5700G replaced my 2700x which became a another pc eventually. i was not sure when my 1080ti had much life left then one day it died and used the apu for a month or so till i taken a try at my 1080ti. soaked it in rubbing alch for a bit then reassembled after it dried and it kicked back to life, i guess there was just some dirt causing leakage over time on it and caused it to short. now for life still no idea but having updated cpu with an apu i can rely on in my situation is great to have as a back up and best part is if i never retire it in the future i could make an apu based home server or something with it for low power use case.

As I said, current APU's are crap for anything with graphics and while not bad cpu wise, it's hard to justify buying a current one unless you're on an extreme budget.

If AMD doesn't have anything against Intel 12th gen for 2022 Then they should decrease there current ZEN3 CPUs prices

[@bauer9101]

As long as Zen 3 keeps selling unfortunately AMD may just keep prices high.

[@mikesunboxing]

with the shortages and expected crisis in the next few weeks there is no reason to and retailers will want to cash in after the losses through the last year

Write down 100 lines: you have to keep your BIOS updated!

[@mikesunboxing]

yes i know, but sadly things didn't work out as intended, i was planning on replacing the 3000g with another one, but CEX are way too expensive for those now

Wtf that processor use Ram storage for Graphics memory

[@mikesunboxing]

yes that is how onboard graphics work

[@MrColinak]

Increase the AMOUNT of V-Ram

[@mikesunboxing]

this is done dynamically now i think so the system will allocate what it needs based on the usage and available resources

[@IMO1964]

£110 Amazon as of Oct 11 2023

[@mikesunboxing]

that is really decent pricing. AM5 APU's are likely to be £200+ i think
