AMD Ryzen 5600X Spotted in CPU-Z Benchmark, it's fast!

Great, even faster than intel core i6...

 

Lets hope my etailer will sell me the 5900x i asked for asap.

 

If this CPU will be faster than i8, i'll take it.

 

Intel fan boys will still find some kind of a flaw though.

 

I knew skipping the 3950X and waiting for the 5950X would be great... hmm kinda can't wait

 

Look, clock is not over 5GHz...

 

Exactly , usless CPU , AMD can't pull it again , doesn't clock beyond magic 5GHz barrier . It won't be good for gaming , sorry folks!

 

It still scores 400pts less in mt than my 2700x 5200 vs 4800, st is far superior 480 vs 640.

Thats why i dont want a 6core but an 8core than i can call it an upgrade.

 

Wow that´s pretty fast. I would not be surprised if sometime in future Intel and nvidia may, or even may have to unite, to compete against AMD... AMD just rules right now, at least if you look at the pure benchmark numbers....very exciting times for CPUs AND GPUs....thank you AMD !!!!!

 

That price though... a 50% increase over 3600 @ $199 (let's just ignore the useless 3600X @ $249).
Value oriented gamers should still flock to 3xxx models or 10600K.

 

Price/performance will be still good , few days more and we will know , but the price doesn't 'Look' that premium here. INTEL used to take much more for 4c/8t, not soo long ago.

 

WooHoo!!

 

I like it, would be nice to get a fair price on it not more than €300.
The only problem I see is that if I want to buy it next week (if in stock) I couldn't find a budget motherboard to support it (bios).
I'm looking at a max €150 motherboard (b550).

 

Go for the 12-core directly ... best price per core !
Yes it's more expensive, but it's unlikely you will upgrade again in the next 2-3 years.
And it gives 50% more cores (and performance) for only higher 22% price, and more cache per core than the 8-core single-die, more IF total bandwidth, double total cache... yea, there are no drawbacks, really !

What's $100 if you spread it over 36 months ? Less than the price of a coffee cup @ starbucks.

I will get the 5900X for sure, even if I am 100% aware I have no use right now for those 12 cores, barely using 8 now ( the stuff I do would run just as fine on a 6-core ).
But who knows, few months in the future I might start learning Blender or doing other compute-heavy stuff... then I'll kick myself for not going for the 12-core.

 

Yeah being spoiled by my 3700x I have to consider the 5900x but at least it’s just a drop in and go thing but then again I’m using the wraith prism.

 

I'm sad about the sharp price increase and hope Intel doesn't keep launching 14nm BS, we need competition.
I wanted to upgrade to maybe 5600 but I'll hold my horses until later.

 

14nm BS is not too bad considering the process. It does consume more watts but performance wise it's a miracle what Intel can achieve on that node.

Speaking of which:
Intel’s 11th Gen 8 Core & 16 Thread Rocket Lake CPU Benchmarked on MSI Z590-A PRO Motherboard – Early 4.2 GHz Sample Up To 21% Faster Than i7-10700K in Single-Core Tests

https://wccftech.com/intel-8-core-16-thread-rocket-lake-cpu-benchmarks-leak-msi-z590-motherboard/

Competition is good, they will probably match +/- the ryzen 5k while consumption will obviously be higher.
If priced right might force both manufacturers into a battle from which hopefully we can benefit.

 

Prices are OK when you get new tech. You get more performance with new navi rdna2 gpus, something never ever happened before. You can't demand better life at same price as an inferior product. New AMD combos bring a next gen console inside our PCs. We can already have a PS6/XSX2.

 

Prices are not really ok, look a while back when Intel was dominating and accused of high prices. I7 2600k was top dog for desktop back then entering the market with a great performance gain and huge OC posibilities.

Intel Core i7-2600K Launch price $317

To get closer to these days:
i7-7700K Launch price $350
