Worth upgrading from 5 3600? (edited)
3rd May
My rule with Ryzen 3000 series is >

IF new cpu cores = SAME as old cpu cores then DO NOT upgrade
IF new cpu cores > old cpu cores THEN upgrade

Which means it depends what software you want to run but generally I would say no I wouldn't upgrade from a 3600 to a 5600. I would upgrade to a 5700 / X or 5800 / X or 5700X3D/5800X3D depending on the price.

6 core to 6 core part no
6 core to 8 core part yes

Worth upgrading from a R5 1600?
3rd May
100%, make sure your motherboard supports this CPU. Check the compatibility section on the motherboard website. If it does then make sure you have the latest BIOS
2nd May
Ive got this with a 7900xtx driving 4k 120hz. Perfect gaming CPU for 4k, performs identical to a £500+ CPU for that task
2nd May
Any motherboard recommendation for that? Something with good value / money ratio. NN any extreme stuff.
2nd May
I'd get a B550 (CPU is pcie x4)

this gigabyte one is 80 euros - order with the cpu

I paid around £300 at launch. Damn so cheap! Still using it as I type this and still awesome!
2nd May
Me too - I thought it was a steal in Dec 2020 for £220 alongside my ridiculously priced (I thought at the time) Founders 3070.

Next upgrade will be a fully new build and this CPU will definitely last that long IMHO.
2nd May
Wow that is a stonking price, it’s a bit older than the 7 series but this is hella good. I had an older B350 board and a simple bios update later I’ve been rocking a 5600. This is basically a binned version of the 5600. This will be amazing for a budget gaming build and I think will be good for several years to go.
3rd May
Good price, not worth it to upgrade my 5600G though, I take it?

I use a 6750 XT and not the APU but I got it on a great deal at the time and what I saw with testing there wasn't much difference between the 5600/X/G
3rd May
I wouldn't bother mate. For 6750 XT your procesor is fine.

Check the price of your procesor on eBay, if you can sell it for £90, then go for it. (edited)
3rd May
What's a decent graphics card to go with this if I get a B550 board as well? (edited)
3rd May
6700XT or 6750XT .

I have the latter but recall several YouTubers saying this was a good balance
3rd May
Is this worth going for from a 5600g?

Don't need the built in graphics anymore.
3rd May
No, there will not be much difference (edited)
2nd May
Amazing price and surely the best bang for buck deal available right now. I recently upgraded from this chip, but I passed it onto my kid's build where he has it paired with a 1070 ti, and his performance in Helldivers 2 more than doubled.
2nd May
Worthy upgrade for my brother? He has a 3080ti running at 4k with a 2700x CPU.
2nd May
Worthy.
2nd May
I bought the FX 6300 for the same price 11 years ago
2nd May
Yes that's normal.
2nd May
Really good price!
2nd May
Thanks, bought. £92.5 when paid in Euro using Monzo.
2nd May
Not just budget gaming this processor can handle any game you throw at it.
6th May
Mine has arrived and working correctly now, I did have to try it in two identical builds with latest BIOS from Gigabyte, it booted in one but not the other. Very strange, however both systems booted their old respective CPUs.

Anyway, it's not massively faster than the 1800X in general usage it replaced, at least that's how it feels just doing daily activities. It does benchmark higher for games and feels a "little" faster to me. I think I just need some more time with it.

For the price this is excellent, the 5700X on Amazon Germany is also a very good buy.

Paid 86 with euro card. Now need some motherboard and ram for it. Thanks (edited)

Omg I ordered this yesterday, paid €111.22 / about £95
It's now €108.19, how low can it go..? (edited)
2nd May
Amazing price. This cpu sips power. Undervolt it and it’s even better value.
2nd May
Is this better than a 3600X?
3rd May
Yes it is.
2nd May
What the hell
2nd May
Great deal. If I hadn't upgraded a few months back I'd be all over this.
3rd May
£150 about 9 months ago. Great deal!
3rd May
I bought this for £280 when everywhere was selling for £320! Great CPU.

I currently have:

5600x
5700x
7600
7800x3D

This is the best value for the performance!
3rd May
I have a 4070 ti. What's the best cpu/ motherboard can I get
3rd May
7600X get a compatible B motherboard
3rd May
is it worth upgrading from a ryzen 7 1700x 8/16?
3rd May
I would say so, the single core IPC is substantially better than Zen 1, the multi core on this is about the same as the 3700X, so quite a bit faster than the 1700X too.
3rd May
Is this worth the upgrade from my R5 3600.. I'm running a 6600xt
3rd May
it is a good upgrade. Though some games may not see a noticeable difference due to GPU bottleneck. But that depends on your resolution and settings ofc
3rd May
Would love to build a new rig but ITX parts are so expensive!
3rd May
Can you order from Amazon Germany with UK delivery and not pay customs tax?
Author
3rd May
Yes you can, no other fees to pay.
Customs duty may be charged on top of the headline price, usually on items costing more than £135 Information
3rd May
BTW,if anyone wants a 5700X it is also on offer from Amazon Germany:
hotukdeals.com/dea…103

Got to say this 5600X deal is still one of the best CPU deals I have seen this year!
3rd May
Deal of the day: MSI B450 GAMING PLUS MAX Motherboard ATX, AM4, DDR4, LAN, USB 3.2 Gen2, M.2, MYSTIC Light Sync, HDMI, DVI-D, AMD RYZEN 1st, 2nd and 3rd Gen Ready amzn.eu/d/c…JRH

Will 5600x work with that motherboard? From what I read quickly, there is some beta bios but I assume I would need to get some older Ryzen first to install that bios?
4th May
According to MSI's page, yes.
msi.com/Mot…ort

I just bought this for a little more than this deal. Great CPU for what I use it for, Photoshop, Lightroom, Cura. Using a Gigabyte B550M DS3H motherboard which does the job.
3rd May
It’s now saying used like new (damaged packaging)
3rd May
I just made the leap to AM5 and was hoping to recoup some of my costs with my old components. It's a terrible time to be selling used stuff, rn.
4th May
Best budget GPU to go with this?
4th May
There was 6750xt for £260 few days ago. Rx 6800 for £317 was even better. Generally speaking Rx 6700XT is a solid choice.
4th May
great price but delivery time is 1-3 weeks
5th May
True - if you're not in any kind of rush, it's great..! Having said that, I ordered one a couple of days ago and it should arrive towards the end of this coming week; Amazon do often dispatch earlier than they state, YMMV.

I'll comment again, this is an incredibly good deal for what is still a very good CPU, it's basically identical to the 5800X in gaming performance but has 2 less physical cores so would be worse in multi threaded situation. I honestly don't believe that is a big issue for most home users. And by the time it would be an issue the 8 and 12 core models will be cheaper than this anyway.
