AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Beats Intel Core i5-10600K

And before I continue the news item, that Core i5-10600K has a 125W TDP, the AMD one ... 65 Watts. Anyhow, meet the Ryzen 5 5600X CPU. TUM_APISAK stumbled into some entries at the SiSoftware Sandra benchmark.

The Ryzen CPU has six of Zen 3 cores with 12 threads, paired with 32 MB of level three (L3) cache. The proc is clocked at 3.7 GHz base frequency, while the boost speeds are reaching 4.6 GHz.

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU has scored Processor Arithmetic and Processor Multi-Media scores of 255.22 GOPS and 904.38 Mpix/s.
Intel Core i5-10600K CPU, which is likely its targeted competing category, it scores 224.07 GOPS and 662.33 Mpix/s for Processor Arithmetic and Processor Multi-Media tests each.

That's a good 14% more perf. Of course we need way more benchmarks than that, but considering my Wattage remark and these preliminary results, we'd say Ryzern 5000 is gonna be a hit.

And for a gaming system a 5600X might be well enough for Very High End Gaming rig.

If i could keep my B450 AORUS Pro the upgrade will be pretty massive compared to my 2600X.

From a CPU-Z single score of 484 for the 2600X to well over 600 for the 5600X.

All i need then is a 3070TI or One of Big Navi GPUs and that's me set for a good 4 years.

I honestly don't see the other CPUs on Zen 3 pushing that much more FPS than the 5600X.

The 5800X will only offer a frame or two difference.

6/12 might fall short in 2-3 years if consoles push the cpu usage to 8 cores.

Im torn between the 5800 and the 5900... Reviews cant come soon enough.

Lower clock, lower IPC than Zen3.

6/12 will fall short even sooner than that. Why do you think 8/16 prices went up the most? Amd knows it will be the chip to get.
