Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Overclocking is only harmful when it’s maxxed out and you’re running your pc 24/7. The cpu has the perfect amount of performance where there isn't any concern of it being a bottleneck unless you pair it with something like the rtx 4090.

This is the only processor you'll ever need if you're just looking for something to power a simple budget gaming pc build. The cpu is more than enough to deliver over or near 100 fps at 1080p in almost any game with the 6600 and can even exceed 200 fp...  Read More

Despite am5 and 13th gen intel being out, am4 + 5600 is still a great budget combo. Cheaper than 5600x but (nearly) same performance. Gen3x4 dram tlc m. Tb nvme for less than $80.



Cons

This is disgusting. I hope this was simply a mix up and not an actual attempt to scam people that don't bother to check their components as they install them.

Quality


Product works great stays at a good temperature under heavy loads and works fast on games


Amazing processor and you can even use pbo to increase it's performance


I honestly did not even realize it came with a cooler as i did not pay attention enough when purchasing.


Multiple products three of their items are in my gaming pc.

Price


Great value and performance if you dont want to spend a ton


You can't beat the price to performance.


If you can get this cpu for about 115$, grab it.


There's not much that i can say just that i'm extremely glad, price, performance wow!

Shipping


Paired with a geforce rtx 4060 getas about 300 fps in battle royale fortnite.

Packaging/appearance


Package is really nice and it includes the stock cooler which is fine, but as i like lower temps i use a custom air cooler.

Competitiveness


Went with this instead of the 5500.


I've purchased a wide range of ryzen processors recently for a number of pc builds, and none match the performance to value of the 5600.

    First of all this is best budget cpu imo


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    That said if you plan on stream or game on this cpu you must change its default cpu cooler otherwise it will get very hot around 78c86c on average while gaming


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    On idle or watching movies it runs on average at 65c


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Upgraded from a r5 1600 and this is a huge jump in framerate on games and less 1 lows

    It installed fine but the fan wasn’t cooling enough so i bought a water cooler


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I honestly did not even realize it came with a cooler as i did not pay attention enough when purchasing

    Probably the best bang for your buck processor out there for less than 130


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Sadly the first one died on me it had to be overclocked to run and eventually it needed to overheat to even work or turn on and it just eventually wouldnt boot
