A superb CPU

I have this CPU in my custom build and it is great! Runs my games really well with no issue. Especially good how they included a cooler in it, which works good.

Great CPU

Upgraded from an i7 7000 series to this. Amazing core and boost clock. Performs nearly the same as a 5600X for a few $ less. Highly recommend for a PC build on a budget for mid/high range gaming

I'm sure this will serve me well

It took a BIOS update on my venerable A320M motherboard to install this. Fortunately I knew that would be needed so I took care of it before I upgraded my PC. I'm very happy with this new CPU and I expect it will serve me well over the coming years.

Great starter CPU for a newbie

No issues with installing this to a new build. Great price and happy with the performance over the past month. I did buy an upgraded cooler for this based on recommendations and have not had an issue.

Great Value - Good Performance

Bought the Ryzen 5600 CPu to replace my Ryzen 3600.
I'm not entirely sure it was worth changing in my particular case but if you are upgrading from something worse than a 3600 or you are building a new system the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 is hard to beat for value. Since my Motherboard did not require any updates to accept the 5600 the installation process took less than 10 minutes!
Would definitely recommend for anyone doing office work or gaming at 1080p.

10/10

Best Budget New Build CPU

This is easily the best budget CPU to buy for a new build right now, no difference between this CPU and the 5600x except for the letter.
Pair this with 16GB 3200MHz RAM and an RX 6600 and you have top of the line 1080p max setting high refresh gaming, best budget combo on the market today.

Excellent value upgrade for AM4 Socket motherboards with older ryzen 5 cpu's

I upgraded from a gen one ryzen 5 1600 to this cpu.

Runs cooler and reaches max frequency of 4.4 Gz easy on my 4 year old mini-itx mother board (sustained under full core load , it holds this)
I would recommend a cheap aftermarket cooler on this , for much lower temps than standard cooler (which works fine). Having a better cooler on the cpu and it runs at max 4.4 easy consistently at full 6 core/12 thread loads no problem. Stock cooler may not give u full performance
I have a cheap coolermaster 410R 90mm tower cooler (fits in my small cube case with my mini-itx board).Keeps cpu about 15 deg C cooler than stock cooler.
These are great...view more
