AMD Ryzen 5 5600G CPU

I bought this to be part of a gaming PC where the GPU can be a later addition. Though I'm not sure I'll end up getting a GPU because the integrated graphics are good enough to do 1080p gaming at low to medium settings in dirt rally and higher settings in less demanding games.

Good built in graphics. Make sure you use dual channel fast ram at 3200mhz+ it uses it to improve performance. Good built in graphics. Make sure you use dual channel fast ram at 3200mhz+ it uses it to improve performance.

I was using a Ryzen 5 3500X processor, and recently replaced that with the Ryzen 5 5600G... Was doing hardware troubleshooting, and since this has integrated GPU, it worked great for testing my GPU at the same time... To my surprise I've found the 5600G processor, which works on PCI-E 3.0 speeds as a much better CPU than Ryzen 5 3500X, which was working on 4.0 speeds. This processor has higher clock speeds and 12 threads... I have a dedicated monitor running AIDA dashboard all the time... the CPU usage on this processor is much lower than the 4.0 CPU was doing... !!! Now that I have two working CPU's, I am using the 5600G at 3.0 speeds... It...view more I was using a Ryzen 5 3500X processor, and recently replaced that with the Ryzen 5 5600G...

great product great price to performance great product great price to performance

Massive improvement on my old system very happy Massive improvement on my old system very happy

Great Product runs way better than expected. Great Product runs way better than expected.

I upgraded from a ryzen 5 3600 with a gt 1030 in a fully passive pc, the 5600G scores higher in geekbench than the 3600, runs a decent amount cooler than the 3600, and is roughly 30% faster than the gt 1030 while playing doom on Linux, plus its cheaper than the gt 1030 and 3600.

First impressions are very good. Very snappy response on desktop. First impressions are very good. Very snappy response on desktop.

I brought this 1 month ago for my new pc and ran all the games I want well. The integrated graphics is good enough to run minecraft and similar games whoeverif you want to run other biger games it might requirea graphics card. It was easy to install and works well. Would recommend buying a better cooler as the stock cooler isn't the best. Well satisfied with the purchase and the price do recommend this cpu for anyone building a budget gaming pc.

The G version is the best if you are not running a GPU, if you have a decent GPU, get the 5600X version, with no intergrated graphics, this 5600G is perfect for my light gaming needs:) The G version is the best if you are not running a GPU, if you have a decent GPU, get the 5600X version, with no intergrated graphics, this 5600G is perfect for my light gaming needs:)

I know diddly squat about computers but my son is in IT so it was him who chose this item and he was happy with it! I'm just grateful my computer is going again!

If you need a cheap gaming PC without being extorted by GPU prices, this is what you are looking for.

I originally bought for my son's PC with the hope to upgrade him to an entry level GPU in the next 3-4 months but after seeing the performance I dont think I will bother. Im jealous because Im only running a Ryzen 3600.
Fortnight at 1080p on Medium-Medium High settings at a constant 60fps which was a huge surprise tbh.

I highly reccomend the Deepcool AS500 Plus CPU cooler. Keeps the GPU at 58deg during gaming with fans at low RPM. Since you wont need a $500-$1000 GPU you can invest towards quality other parts in the system If you need a cheap gaming PC without being extorted by GPU prices, this is what you are looking for.
