Why is EVERYONE buying this CPU?? - Ryzen 5 3600

[@Alliance-ul9tf]

"Why is EVERYONE buying this CPU??" Because this was your #1 recommendation last holiday season. You opened the video by saying "just go buy a Ryzen 5 3600"

[@pmxi]

exactly what I was thinking!

It's also simply the best Bang for the Buck CPU.

Yeah I saw this and thought the exact thing. Pretty sure a LTT video convinced me to switch to AMD although I sprung for an R7 instead.

The 3300x is still pretty sweet at the price if you can find it, not much in the way of spare cores though so you'll have to kill background clutter to get good game performance

[@rand0mtv660]

Ability to overclock probably doesn't matter to 99% of people, even though people like to use it as an argument. I just like it as an argument from the perspective that AMD doesn't artificially lock something like this. If you want to overclock, you can, if you don't want to you don't have to touch it ever. At least you do have a choice if you want.

[@sauhamm3821]

99% gamer opinion: i rocked my 3600 for years before passing her on to a friend. and when it was retired it was only because i caught the update bug. as said chip was still giving 100+ fps in any game i chucked at it. that said, it was and still is a monster amount of processing power for any non productivity based task (once you start talking about blender or managing video editing it's time for new silicon) - i'm on am5 now and for gaming, it's surprisingly cool and quiet despite all the videos here on youtube lamenting how heat and power hungry they are... i game at 4k and the 3600 never once made me feel like i needed more power from my cpu. not bad for the $200 or whatever i paid 3-4 years ago...

I need a good general purpose, multi-tasking PC; I'm not a gamer and I stay back from the bleeding edge. For everyone whinging about rising chip prices, it doesn't mean AMD is gouging, there happens to be a worldwide chip shortage in early 2021.

I also had very high temps with the stock cooler. Is there a sku of the 3600 you can get without the cooler, to save a few bucks?

[@MrCrackedJack]

Big thing I found is disable the crappy turbo function. In default state the CPU will constantly try to run at max turbo for no reason. I did a Cinebench R20 benchmark from stock, with the stock cooler, including the stock thermal pad (not paste, the pad, yuck I know) my temps were horrendous, got as high as 93c. I then tried again but with turbo off and saw a higher score and better temps. I then proceeded to overclock my same system, stock cooler and thermal pad, to 4.1GHz, no turbo, and gained a lot more score in R20 Cinebench. I am now scoring above stock 2700s, and quite a bit above 1700x even overclocked. My idle is 37c average, peak temperature under high load (running an ARK server, playing ARK, also playing Black Desert Online on another monitor and KZbin running a video at 4k along with several other tabs open) was 69c. Currently while idling in BDO and playing YT at 4k I am at 40c. Again, this is all with the stock cooler, stock thermal pad, and overclocked to a set 4.1GHz, no turbo or fluctuating nonsense. I imagine if I had even used real thermal paste I would lose a good 3-5c on temps, let alone using something along the lines of a Hyper 212evo or a Noctua. (oh and I haven't touched voltage at all, just changed the CPU core clock multiplier after disabling turbo)

@@Axeiaa Yeah, I remember buying the Athlon 64 X2 4400+ even though all the gaming reviews back then were saying to buy the faster single core because 10% more frames or whatever. But the Dual core was plenty fast, and like Linus mentioned, it was nice being able to have other things run in the background without making my game suddenly chug. In the end, that computer lasted much longer than a single core from the same generation simply because it still worked pretty well when Dual Cores became the norm and software expected it.

Milking every poor AMD customer in desktops. Even more twisted because in servers AMD is selling 7000 $ 64c/128t EPYCs for less than 2000 $. Calculate price per core. For the 1st time ARM had in Aug-20 57% in AWS servers and x86 only 47% (Intel and AMD combined!!!). AMD will need to decrease price even further in servers.

5:36 Is this correct? The AMD website says, 1st and 2nd gen Ryzen does not work with B550. And 3rd gen will not work on A320, even with a BIOS update...

[@xman2007]

Yes, but who buys a current gen motherboard with a 3 year old CPU? cause there are CPU's in 3rd gen at every price point, it makes no sense... that said if you have a 3 year old motherboard with a Ryzen 1st gen and think to yourself, I want some of that increased core clock and IPC goodness, then update your bios and pop in your Ryzen 3rd gen, win win

@@xman2007 I thought they confirmed 300 series motherboards won't support Zen 3, only some 400 series will

[@Ahov]

By 3rd gen they actually mean 3000 series I think.

[@dannyc7839]

Depends on the motherboard manufacturer and bios updates. I have a 1600x and a B350 mb. The motherboard died recently so I'd love to get a B550/x570 mb to pair with the 1600x until i can get a new 5000 series cpu. So I'm doing a lot of digging to make sure I get a motherboard compatible AND be happy with in the long run. Wish it were as simple as they say
