Buying the R7 2700 is a good alternative due to rising prices
does the 5 3600 have a integreted graphics card
GREAT VIDEO MAN......
THE BEST CPU EVER MADE IS THE RYZEN 3600XT LOVE IT !
I have a Ryzen 5 2600, I needed the 6 cores for my video processing. My 2600 on a good PCB motherboard like Asus ROG Strix B450F Gaming PC Motherboard will OC to the 3600 with a good cooling system for the CPU. That is OC from the Bios, it actually OC to 3.90GHZ, had too back it down to 3.6GHZ.
My very first PC build, put it together about a month ago, and yup, "bang for buck" was the reason it came very recommended from two of my friends. And with my limited budget, that was enough for me.
Should I buy this CPU or the Intel's i5 10400F
I got the 3600x thank god a year ago, that CPU is so expensive now.
because... price/quality from AMD and has integrated graphics for Minecraft, Lol, Fortnite and CS GO
Not everyone anymore.
If it wasn't for AMD getting on the market to going against Intel, we would still be stuck with 4/8
Hi linus please help me am trying to build a pc for very long time now the with latest AMD cpu but everything is sold out...my uncle is big fan of Nd you and told me to ask you for help
I have a modest budget of 3000 Canadian ....love gaming ,streaming and editing
I am 17 year old living in Ontario Toronto..saved all my birthday money to build a pc ..please help...
Would this still be a viable CPU of gaming, streaming, and light editing in 2021?
I got myself the Ryzen 5 4650G pro with radeon vega graphics
I but Intel because the boxes look like tampax tampons. The made the decision pretty easy.
Me watching this video on a intel pentium II chip
This processor is great. A jack of all traits but a master of none is ifne by me
Happy with my i7 10700k but I appreciate the 3600
My only doubt is will ryzen processors perform good in long run,for 4-5 years atleast?(in a laptop)
How this versus Apples new M1 processor?
Did anyone realize that beside the 9600k there is a z490 motherboard?
I’m gonna get a PC in the next year or so and all it says is “amd ryzen 5-series” and idk what that means :/
can i put amd wraith cooler for ryzen 5 3600 my purpose is gaming
im convinced not upgrading my 4790k yet
The background music reminds me of Summoning Salt videos
Because it was affordable, and more powerful than some i7 processors
Weird how intel is the new budget king. i5 10400f is $60 cheaper than the ryzen 5 where i live.
That’s the one I have
I mean. It's more affordable, its in stock, and it gets the job done. I have no complains lol
Falopa
i feel validated buying this cpu and then watching the video talking about how great it is
Lol ROones auto-translated this video's title and it now says "Why is EVERYBODY buying CPU?" in my language.
Dude. I literally just bought this, saw this video and had a mini heart attack that I fucked up. Thankfully it's quite the opposite
Which AMD CPU can match Intel i9's clock speed (5.30 GHz) with lower TDP (65w)? It'd be best if AMD can with its extra cache and cores.
Lol yep, bought a 3600XT even though next gen was already out, because I didn't want to replace my motherboard for compatibility
That's the GPU i'm going for. Benchmark says it's slightly worse than the i7-10700k for half the price. Bottleneck calculator says the RTX3070 is a bottleneck in the system. And you get cheap motherboards from reputable manufacturers capable of supporting 4600MHz DDR4s. Simply put, great performance for a great price and future proof to boot. Too bad the GPU shortage is making them cost insane ammounts of money, else I'd have went for a new pc already. Means I can wait for them to move on with the AM4 socket and be even more future proofed getting next gen processors.
Ryzen 5 3500 is also good. Its like the 3600's wingman.
10400f better
How good is Ryzen R5 4600H?
Ryzen 5 3600 is basically the best in class for budget processors although its crazy expensive RN
4:27 Dude you gonna get that? : P
I built my first pc 3 weeks ago, it has a ryzen 5 3600 and rx 5500 xt 8gb
I thought the most used cpu was the ryzen 7 3700x It's the one I see the most all around
What word is he using that is so long that you can fit in *"Advertiser Friendly Content"*
anybody else notice that the intel cpu and motherboard aren't compatible with each other?
I just went for an i7 9700k because the 5 3600 were 1. out of stock 2. Ryzens Were actually more expensive 3. The intel was on sale 4. The intel came with free software and crysis remastered 5. It was in stock 6. I am a pro intel person 7. They ran cooler from my experience
Jack of all trades, masters none. But is still good at all.
3600 or 4650G?? A little help here?
3600 for everything
isnt the 3500x even sweeter than the 3600?
@Daniel 3600 has great clock speeds in it's the overall best
@klampz whats the 3600 ? because gpu benchmark says its just slightly worse but 50 bucks cheaper
6 cores 6 threads, nahhhh
I’m wondering what’s the difference between intel i7 10th generation and ryzen 5
1. Intel is still stuck on 14nm process 2. Most of Intel's processors have only 4 cores
I got the Ryzen 5 1600, which is pretty much 2 generations older than the current ones, and I was so glad I did because it featured 6 cores compared to Intel Core i5's equivalent of 4 cores at the time! That CPU is still running stong in my desktop!
@klampz a GTX 1050
@AwesomeShite What is your GPU at the moment?
@klampz I don't have anything other than the stock cooler. CSGO and Rocket League were made to run low end specs since they're E-Sports titles, I don't have RDR2, but I have played Rainbow 6 and the frames have rendered very fine as well. Actually, if anything I should be upgrading my GPU.
@AwesomeShite You should take some Ryzen Master tutorials on ROones, you can OC your CPU so it draws less power from your PSU
@AwesomeShite There is a big performance boost in CPU demanding games like CSGO, RDR2, R6, Rocket League and more... If you want to render videos or photos faster you should OC, but you will need a better cooler than a stock one
I am deciding whether to buy a 3600 or pay my school fees for 3 months
3600
I can never find a video telling me what the best CPU is, can someone tell me🤔?
@klampz is X570 good
@Blank If you can pls get a b550 motherboard never buy A520 or A320 b450 is good b350 is old and probably won't get any bios updates whatsoever
@klampz that is what I plan on using for my build
3600 for 200$ is the best deal
Cuz ryzen 7 has gone overpriced now, so ppl shift to ryzen 5 and the price is probably gonna continue go up just like GPU market, gg for us
R5 3600x gang
3600x not worth it
I mean 5600x is a great deal too
No no no no
I used only intel processors for many years. Until last year when a bad power supply took out my motherboard and Core i5. I normally do my own work, but I wanted a second opinion, so I ran it by a shop i had done business with in the past. He confirmed my diagnosis and offered to do an upgrade for me. I ended up with an MSI A320 Pro-M2 board and a Ryzen 5 2600 and 8 gigs of ram, not to mention a new case. Well new to me. Used my leftovers,power supply, hard drives,and what seems to be an oddball AMD Radeon Rx 550 2GB OC LP graphics card I picked up for $25 on Merari. Blew my old system away. I couldn't believe it. Plus all the OC options available, wow. I have moved my OS to an SSD Card, and swapped in 16GB of some Samsung DDR4 ram. It may not be a top of the line computer, but eats intels for lunch. When taxes come I may swap out the board with a B series and go up to a Ryzen 7. But until then, I good.
Just built my first computer and this is the CPU i went with.
but what is better option for cpu instead of R5 3600????
Ryzen 7 Pro 3700 for 250$ is the best choice for this moment.
Ayeee they showing my cpu
I open many software at once. This works fine and fast. I have no complaints.
I got I5 but as intel says GAMING HAPPENS WITH INTEL
*Watching youtube* Me: Just gonna... finish up this newegg order for my 3600. *This video shows up in my autoplay* Me: ... Oh. Okay then.
Have one on the way right now lol
I got 2600 it's much cheaper
Wait, Phenom II flopped? I ran X4 965 all the way to Ryzen
Why? Because here in my country resellers strictly and fknly bundle these things to a fast moving (in sales) motherboard.
It cost me just over $900 to build a pc using a ryzen 3600 with a used 1080ti. I'm lucky enough to live near a Microcenter though the lines were horrible and I reused my case and psu. First computer build since 2011. It's not a powerhouse, but will work fine for a while.
Ryzen 5 3500X Vs Ryzen 5 3600 ?
Your a bit late buddy
How about 3500?
yay my cpu got noticed
I bought mine for 160$ like 10 months ago.
Crazy to see Linus praising AMD. Back when I invested in AMD stock in the summer of 2016, no one believed in Lisa, Zen, The Team. I jumped in the second I knew Jim Keller designed the Zen architecture and had to "patiently" sit till summer of 2018 listening to all but a few PC reviewers here on you tube hate hate hate on AMD. All you had to do was look at the Zen architecture to see they were catching up fast and would surpass with the new architecture when nodes shrank to 12, 12 + and 7, 7+. Now, everyone (not Linus necessarily …although he was late to the game and didn't see it for awhile) is like …. "yeah I knew they would do it... etc." Funny. I am immensely happy not only because my $5 per share stock is now in the $90 per share range, but also that there is competition again. Intel failed to crush this time despite having the mouthpiece of most of ROones, Seeking Alpha writers, paid hit pieces, etc. #$%^ you Mark Hibben! People that listened to these "professionals" missed out on a life changing investment. I said it then in 2016: Competition keeps people honest and innovating. Love it! $ATOM ... we will see how this tech will impact things next!
How does this compare to 5600x?
at this point they will sell a quadcore for like 50 bucks
You cant buy amd 5 9 intel 7 9 Ti XT -My mom
Jack of al trades
urg, i just paid more than that
Tfw ryzen 5 5600 even better
But I think ryzen is being bit of careless of price.intel says f means fu** to amd by realeasing i5 10400f
I have a slightly off topic comment/question. Why are CPUs so expensive to the home computer builder? You can sometimes buy the whole computer for less that the price of a CPU/motherboard combo. Ok, so the obvious answer is volume purchasing and low labour costs (ie slave labour), and I get that. But why such a huge disparity? Are the CPU manufacturers in bed with the computer makers to discourage home building? Or are they just doing it because they can get away with it? Id love to hear your thoughts on this.
AMD "Business is boomin"
watching this with a i-5 :(
Cause it’s good...
3700x number 2!!! I’ll take it. haha
In my country the r5 5600x is 440 dollars
Guy's ... the german translation is totally broken. It's about TVs and Monitors 😅
Just ordered my 5600x
Ryzen 5 3600 or ryzen 7 2700x, Im going to stream pls help!
I have a 3600, better than my i5.
i got the 5600x for retail price 🥳
AMD dominate the market
cos they cant get 3300x is why they sell
am i the only one having weird temps with my R5 3600 ?
Also AMD has built-in great graphics like vega 8, 10, 😎 and intel has uhd graphics 😐
I paid $159 for the 3600X at MicroCenter.
In the future im going to buy this cpu with money.
*forgets to mention that the i5 10600 is as cheap and faster* -- unless you want an unreliable overclocked system.... xd
