More than a year after AMD launched their Ryzen 5000 CPUs, budget friendly versions of the architecture are available. We start by looking at the R5 5600 against the 5600X & i5-12400. Sponsor: Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 A-RGB (Amazon) https://geni.us/wsAsaa and Arctic MX-5 Thermal Paste (Amazon) - https://geni.us/EXf0I or the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 non-RGB version (Amazon) - https://geni.us/RJBy Watch our AMD R5 5500 review here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPPeSNV9Hog These benchmarks of the AMD R5 5600 vs. Intel i5-12400 and AMD R5 5600X (and i5-12500 and several others) looks at gaming performance, video editing and rendering performance, code compile, power consumption, 3D modeling and art, and more. Our goal is to determine whether the new R5 5600 is worth it, particularly against the long-standing R5 5600X which has recently faced challenges from Intel’s Alder Lake 12th Gen CPUs. We’ll be reviewing the AMD Ryzen 5 5500, R7 5700X, and R5 4500 in upcoming videos, but for now, the focus is on the R5 5600. Our GN Tear-Down Toolkits now have a 7-year (retroactive!) warranty!
