Ryzen 5 9600X Review - any good vs the 7500F & 7800X3D?

[@techyescity]

Think it's pricing just will correct over time, maybe a year or so, could drop another 80/so. Some channels are saying PBO on, showing better gaming/productivity results on Linux, maybe Windows needs to update for 9000, more optimization. Glad you're okay though.

[@MarcoGPUtuber]

I think it should've been called the 9600. 7600X performance for a TDP of 65 W part is great!

[@45eno]

Yeah that's what I was thinking when I saw the 9700X results. Why not let the 65watt part be the standard 9700 and make room for a toasty hot 9700X with 115watt. Weird, not super impressive results. Almost like a Zen to Zen+ jump. Maybe 10600X will be the real upgrade in IPC.

[@MarcoGPUtuber]

@@45eno Yeah. Then the X variants would be for those who want unleashed generational leaps in performance.

BTW, I have read some detailed design analysis on Zen 5 and the conclusion is pretty much that it is held back a lot by RAM speed and it has really good AVX512. Anything that does not use AVX512 is basically leaving half the transistors in the core idle.

what are your thoughts on $180 usd for a 7700 (as i’ve been seeing on aliexpress) and what do you think is the best value am5 motherboard? i think the 9600x (or more likely its non x version) could age very well, especially as with the low stock heat output they’ll likely be reliable for ages. maybe wait for when the prices fall, especially with weak demand due to the global economy.

[@celtshaun1427]

Newer reviews from other sources indicate there's a massive gain to be had on productivity with PBO enabled up to 18% gain then when you also factor in the aggressive $50 price reduction and the new Bios update allowing 105w removing the stranglehold on power the 9600x becomes a beast of a CPU, This CPU is the thinking mans chip and can be used in small form factor builds or laptops with minimal cooling and a great middle tier do it all processor especially when updated and the power draw restrictions are removed now at the lowest price it has to be one of the best price to performance chips available today.

[@kuyache2]

Congrats Bro, you are one of the few mainstream reviewers who had a working 9600X in time ^_^ PS. Be careful you are the 2nd youtube channel I watch in the past hour that also has bike accident. Those old ladies do drive like maniacs ^_^

[@MaryannLynch-z9c]

Seems okay with the pricing for launch too high. Over time it will go down but this is also an expensive 6core. Some channels suggest PBO enabled, Linux gaming/productivity results seem stronger too. Am thinking Windows might need to update for these to get better performance. Am thinking anyone with 5800X3D/12th gen/7000 series can likely hold off upgrading at least until X3D or R9s release, think those will be the performers. This might be a gen to sit out, well at least another month, see if those X3D deliver gaming performance.

[@Neoceres-pi6zd]

Hi TYC, any chance to test with the new patch 24H2 windows 11, also can we try AtlasOS or any of your custom windows setups to improve more performance? thank you Bryan, best regards from Medellin Colombia

[@p4radigm989]

Good Job, Sir. - I like that you didn't neglect the amazing low power draw and cool running chip, as well as the performance gains from changing power limits and undervolting. Gamers Nexus Hardware Unboxed and some other really failed in their reviews, being way too negative about these chips. Question remains, who is the target audience for this chip, maybe SFF PC fans or people who just like lower temperatures with the option to "overclock" it. Obviously these chips will have to be cheaper than the 9800X3d and 7800x3d (or those will have to be more expensive).

[@nykraftlemagnifique]

Interestingly, the 9600X is the champion at LQ settings, and it would be interesting to see the 9600X paired with a budget GPUs. In that case, could the price difference between the 9600X and 7500F be noticeably smaller than upgrading a GPU, at least in some games?

[@techyescity]

I mean we are talking extremely high FPS at these levels, I would always opt for the value choice, spend the savings on a a better GPU. That is, in this case the value is quite in favor of the 7500F.

Okay So i recently watched a well known channel do a 9700x but didnt compare the 7700x Now and rather surprisingly you've got everything all around it but not the 7600x vs the 9600x I'm sure this was a huh moment for other viewers too. Everything but its main previous gen at its same release number. For some reason even the 5700x 3d as a filler? As for your health, get better soon! I hope you have a speedy recovery, i had an accident on a mountain bike that split off the side of my helmet. Without the helmet high % bet id not be here today. Always wear your helmet people. Hideous story of my sisters younger years, where someone got knocked of their bike right outside her school and then run over by a vehicle. Story goes her head exploding like a water melon,, ugh what a tragedy!

[@robine5280]

Two possibilities: 1) People are fed up with power hungry space heaters. (Including me) 2) They maybe got the same degradation problems as Intel and run the chips pretty light to keep them stable over time. Maybe a combination of both. We'll have to wait and see what happens when someone runs one overclocked for a while. Roman did a quick test for review and his chip easily pulled double the power with a significant thought not nearly double performance increase.

Interesting over representation of the games that depend on higher clock speed over cache or cores in your test. I mean most of the CPUs tested can literally fit the entire active CS2 files on their L3 cache eliminating any X3D cache advantage while highlighting X3D lower clock speeds. If you wanted to make X3D look bad the games you selected would be in the how to manual. How are you shocked when you know this is true? Most newer games are not going to show anything near this kind of behavior on a 7800X3, it will smack the piss out of the 9600X. Even the 5800X3D will beat it in quite a few games.

[@mapesdhs597]

@@B3tterEv3ryDay Hardly dead end if the numbers show it's clearly good enough to last many years. Simply calling something "dead end" is not an argument. One can certainly make a rationale for AM5 as an all new build option, but then that would have to take into account 12th Gen Intel and other possibilities aswell. There are though a lot of AM4 users, as the sales number show. AMD could have reduced the cost of the 5800X3D way back, but instead they pushed out the clock-reduced 5700X3D and collapsed the supply of the 5800X3D, which has since skyrocketed in price, and now the reason why is clear: a comparatively cheap 5800X3D would make many of the newer AM5 parts look silly, but instead people can say oh but the 5700X3D is slower, etc., even though the frame rates are still amazing. People have become fps obsessed. Same reason why they never properly pushed a 5600X3D, or indeed a genuine 5500X3D, likewise why they quickly phased out the 3300X; they are competing with themselves, and all too often the lower SKUs demonstrate there's really no need to spend oodles on a high end part to achieve good performance in most gaming scenarios, especially at 1440p+.
