![]() Precision Boost Overdrive remains supported and is implemented as-designed for the AMD Ryzen 3000 Series processors. You will see these results on our graphs as the “PBO” results. We will utilize PBO on the Ryzen 5 5600X enabled in our BIOS as our overclocking results, as this is the official overclocking method for the CPU. This could mean you won’t need as a robust cooler as the 3600X would have needed, saving you a little money on the configuration.Īnother feature of the Ryzen 5000 series CPUs is the Precision Boost Overdrive or PBO support that can be enabled in the BIOS as an overclocking method increasing boost clocks by as much as +200MHz. Though the base frequency is 100MHz lower on the 5600X, the boost clock is 200MHz and has a lower TDP. This is a pretty big power saving, considering the Ryzen 5 5600X can boost higher than the Ryzen 5 3600X at 4.6GHz versus 4.4GHz. The Ryzen 5 3600X has a higher 95W TDP, while the new Ryzen 5 5600X sits at a TDP of 65W. The CPUs are the same size and z-height, and other for the lettering you wouldn’t be able to tell them apart. The Ryzen 5 5600X looks identical to the Ryzen 5 3600X, both being based on the AMD AM4 socket platform. The base frequency is 3.7GHz and the max boost frequency is 4.6GHz with a TDP of 65W (the presentation slide above has the wrong TDP listed). It has 3MB of L2 cache and 32MB of 元 cache. It is based on the AMD Zen 3 architecture and manufactured on TSMC 7nm. ![]() The Ryzen 5 5600X is a 6 core CPU with SMT so that it supports 12 threads, therefore it is a 6c/12t CPU design. For a complete overview of the Zen 3 architecture please check out the entire AMD Press Deck for Zen 3. This includes a re-organizing of the CCDs and CCX complexes inside the package to better optimize cache performance. The Ryzen 5 5600X CPU is based on the newer Zen 3 architecture from AMD, which supersedes the Zen 2 architecture that the Ryzen 5 3600X was based on. Today we are going to focus on the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X performance, and compare it with the Ryzen 5 3600X. The question is, is that extra $50 worth the performance upgrade? AMD certainly thinks so, as it raised the prices on Zen 3 CPUs versus the previous generation. In 2020, AMD launched the Ryzen 5 5600X at a higher $299 MSRP. When the Ryzen 5 3600X was launched it launched with an MSRP of $249 in 2019, making it a great mainstream CPU. The AMD Ryzen 5000 series, based on Zen 3, was released in the summer to fall of 2020. AMD Ryzen 5 5600X SpecsĪs a refresher, the AMD Ryzen 3000 series, based on Zen 2, was released in the summer to fall of 2019. This review today is a specific “versus” type of review, comparing the Ryzen 5 3600X with the Ryzen 5 5600X. This continues our look at Ryzen 5000 series CPU performance in 2021 which we started with our Ryzen 7 3700X versus Ryzen 7 5800X review we published. Now we are taking it a step further, and comparing from the Zen 2 generation to the Zen 3 generation, CPU-to-CPU equivalent, to see what the benefit is upgrading to the newer Zen 3 architecture. In a previous comparison, we had looked at the Ryversus the Ryzen 5 3600X, to see what that little “X” at the end of the CPU added to the performance. Consider this our review of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X. ![]() We are going to find out if it is really worth it upgrading from the Ryzen 5 3600X to the newer Ryzen 5 5600X, generation to generation. This is Zen 2 versus Zen 3, 6-core to 6-core CPUs head-to-head, in the mainstream mid-range performance realm for CPUs. Today we are going to directly compare performance between the AMD Ryzen 5 3600X CPU known as Matisse and AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU known as Vermeer.
