Well, it was just two years ago, while the original Zen 3 line-up launched 3.5 years ago. It took them 1.5 years to release an SKU cheaper than $300. They did it after Intel released entry level Alder Lake chips. AMD can be greedy too when they're on top. 😉

I gotta say, the missed opportunity for inclusion of a 5800X3D, the logical next-step for most AM4 users wanting to extend the life of their existing rigs (in that it also offers higher core count for productivity than the 5600, not just adding benefit in gaming) is a bit odd.

In my opinion, this type of content is so important to the community. As a builder myself, I get these questions all the time from my clients. I usually resort to extrapolating benchmarks from various videos and reviews to make the best decisions. Videos like this are incredibly valuable in this regard. It’s also off the beaten path which usually leads to more views if there is interest. Keep up the good work guys.

I recommend ryzen 5600 to anyone who wants to build budget fast enough 1080p or even 1440p pc, cause its better than 14100f and even i5 12400f specially with the motherboard pricing, and overclocking capablities of ram and cpu on cheap amd mobo, like b450 ds3h v2 is around 60-70$ and has 4 ram slots, and very good vrm heatsinks, and with some patience, you can oc ram with titght timings and undervolt (maybe even oc with uv) cpu beyond for great low temps, also good b550 mobo like ds3h are also under 100$ if you want pcie 4 benefits on gpu and nvme.

I was running a 5600 X paired with an RX6950XT for a while and for single player titles in 1440P it was usually almost maxing out the GPU, wasn't quite getting a 100% in all loads but it wouldn't dip much below 80% usage. Still a very strong processor, I did upgrade to the 5800X3D and that has definitely been an improvement in some games and just keeping that GPU usage maxed out especially, when I started doing some raytracing the extra cores and extra capacity of the 5800X3D did stand out. I definitely was still having a great gaming experience with the 5600x at 1440P with a then high-end now upper mid-range GPU.

Upgrading on this platform doesn't make much sense when the cost could be put into a platform upgrade. this video is super helpful and I'm sure i could see some uptick in performance with a gpu upgrade for the few games I'm not able to max out my fps on, but not enough to make it worthwhile for my use case.... but if i had a higher refresh rate monitor and more into competitive games it could be a huge upgrade getting a better CPU and GPU combo.

@@VideosVlogsThatsIt Found a writeup I did on a previous video, on why it can matter when building a new system. or upgrading an old one. (this data is really hard to come by) Do you think you guys could do CPU+GPU bottleneck testing comparisons for a set budget? Let's say you're building a PC $1500 USD if I get a i3 13400, and a 4070Ti would I be better off than if I got a 14600k and I 4060 for example. Or, if I had an older PC how far could I spend on a GPU before I upgrade my CPU? All normal benchmarks separate this aspect for proper testing. But in the real world the limit is usually the budget. So seeing how low you can go on the CPU before you run into issues would be interesting. I'd guess the main issues would show up at 1080p. I think you technically did a video like this before (3600 + 3080), but an update would be nice. Hardware Canucks also did a video like this. If I explained what I meant horribly it was called "4090 trashes older ryzen cpus" I guess the easiest way to test would be to just run the all CPUs with different priced GPUs that way the data can be universal for anyone's budget. Would certainly be an insane amount of work though.

Just throw a 5800X3D in there. It's more than fine for a 4070 Super, it's super efficient as far as power/heat and you should have a good pairing for the rest of this console gen including the PS5 Pro refresh. Wait until the next gen console tech to invest in a whole new platform, water cooling imo.

Been using 5600 + 4070 Ti combo for a year. I tuned RAM (3800MHz/CL16 + tightened subtimings). That way 5600 rarely becomes bottleneck for this card at 1440p. It can provide 60+ fps in all modern games, except few seriously unoptimzed ones, like Hogwarts Legacy, SWJS and of course DD2. But, since even 5800X3D can not offer 60+ fps experience in these games, I am not going to upgrade 5600 until the release of Zen 5 and new Intel CPUs.

Perfect combination - 5600 just have some minor bottleneck in 1440p, at 4k 5600 can even feed 4070tis. For better GPU u need AM5. And the review is more than perfect for CPU buying guide. IF U use card slower than 4080/7900xtx 7800x3d not needed. 7700 for $250 will do the job without bottleneck till 4070tis/7900xt

If you are trying to game at 4k, you are not going to get far with a "budget" gpu.

The main reason I got a 4090 was for ray traced games, but so far only Alan Wake 2 has really stretched it (couldn’t get in to Cybrepunk).

I would describe what you're doing as creating pc "performance models" giving people an idea of how categories (ie high end, midrange etc..) of hardware when pair together are likely to perform. I have a overclocked 5700x and struggled to nail down how much GPU was ideal to not overpay since I'm planning on keeping that chip for a while. Settled on a rx7800xt in the end

Eh sure, but often 60fps is just fine for people too for games designed around lower framerates anyway. The 5600 will more or less do everything the consoles can with a 60fps limit (usually more as its single thread performance is much stronger). In competitive titles its average is comfortably 120+, that's plenty for most people. Also consider the CPU + platform cost for the 5600 is a small fraction what a 7800X3D will set you back, it's a lot more than 50% more money for 50% more performance. Personally, I don't find it worthwhile for me to upgrade my CPU unless it can comfortably do double what the consoles can for a reasonable price. Eg. If GTA VI is designed for a 30FPS limit on the consoles maxing out the 3700(non-X equivalent) CPU for all it's worth, then you won't be able to make a steady 60FPS happen with anything less than the absolute fastest PC CPU right now, and it's not that important to me.

nah, these tests are also very heavily oriented towards cpu bound scenarios, i mean 4/5 single player games shown in this vid are notoriously cpu heavy.

@BigOuterHeaven

First of all, for a gaming computer it is better to have the most powerful video card that you can afford. Simply because replacing the processor with a more powerful one will cost much less than having a top processor, but the video card will be of an average or even low level. In addition, video cards become obsolete much faster than processors. So the 4080 paired with the 5600 is quite an adequate build. Simply because it will be possible to upgrade the processor to 5700X3D/5800X3D.

@@BigOuterHeavenIt's a lot more nuanced than that. Being processor bottlenecked typically means you're going to "enjoy" some nasty stutters and 1% lows. It's better to be GPU bottlenecked for a bit so you can tweak the settings and/or lower the settings. But obviously this really depends on your situation (fps, budget, resolution, games, etc.)

So its nice to see what are current equipment can do with the newer GPU architecture. Also helps to give an idea if upgrading just the GPU or investing in a whole new platform or CPU GPU combo is very helpful. So thank you

An interesting comparison for sure, thanks Steve~ Glad to know that me upgrading from a 2600x to a 5600 for 110€ last year was a solid choice for my 2080TI (roughly 4060TI level). I mostly play SP games on a 2k monitor and I don't mind a bit of upscaling or tuning the graphics settings. I can see why it wouldn't suffice for competitive MP gaming, but the people interested in that always need to stay up-to-date when it comes to CPU performance anyway.

Thank you, Captain Obvious. Clearly the $250 CPU is going to be much less bottlenecked than the $100 one. What isn't clear to you is that if you're shopping at this level, $125-150 is a huge difference for the overall build. That cost could bring you up 30-50% in performance, and it would be stupid to buy a $250 CPU with a $300 GPU vs buying the $100-120 CPU with the $430-450.
