Although the AM4 pins were nearing completion, AMD wanted to make the most of it, adding 7 new processors, including Ryzen 7 5800X3D with 3D-V cache, 3 new Ryzen 5000 family members: Ryzen 7 5700X, Ryzen 5 5600 and Ryzen 5500, and Zen2 architecture Ryzen 3 4100, Ryzen 5 4500 and Ryzen 5 4600G.
Among the above 6 processors, in addition to the Ryzen 7 5800X will not be sold until April 20th, the remaining 5 are sold in the past few days, and Xiao Yang has also received Ryzen 7 5700X and Ryzen 5 5600 in advance, let's see if these two newly added products can retain the player's heart in performance, guard the mid-range and entry market, and continue YES.
Ryzen 7 5700X unboxed with specifications
Ryzen 7 5700X body belongs to the castrated version of Ryzen 7 5800X, the core is also an 8-core/16 thread configuration, also has a 32MB tertiary cache, but the base frequency and acceleration frequency from 3.8GHz, 4.7GHz down to 3.4GHz and 4.6GHz, but also because of the reduction in frequency, power consumption has been significantly improved, from 105W to only 65W!
The main specifications of the Ryzen 7 5700X.
In the part of the product entity, even if the power consumption is greatly reduced, the boxed Ryzen 7 5700X still chooses to take the "minimalist style", there is nothing other than the processor body and the manual, so the player still has to buy the corresponding heatsink.
The packaging of the Ryzen 7 5700X is fairly streamlined, with only the processor body and instructions.
Processor body.
It is not difficult to see from the model that the Ryzen 5 5600 is a weakened version of the Ryzen 5 5600X, the core as a whole remains roughly unchanged, the same is the configuration of 6 cores /12 threads, with a 32MB L3 cache, but the base frequency and /acceleration frequency are low at 3.5 /4.4GHz. In addition, the model model does not have the "X" affix, which also means that the Ryzen 5 5600 has lost the ability to unlock the maximum frequency limit, and the player's ability to overclock will become very limited.
Basic specifications of the Ryzen 5 5600.
The Ryzen 5 5600 will provide original fan, but the entire Ryzen 5 5000 series will provide fans.
In this side also introduced in passing the Ryzen 5 5500 without out-of-the-box, the core of the processor or maintain the configuration of 6 cores / 12 threads, the power consumption is also maintained 65W, but Ryzen 5 5500 not only continues to shrink the frequency to 3.6 /4.2 GHz, L3 cache is also reduced to 19MB, theoretically the performance will have a considerable gap with Ryzen 5 5600.

Performance measured
In order to fully play the performance of the processor, Xiao Yang chose the motherboard of the X570 chip group instead of the more common B550 chip group in the mid-range, and the graphics card matching is to use the RX 6700XT graphics card of the same AMD, and the complete platform specifications are as follows:
Memory: Viagrain D50 DDR4-3600 8X2 16G RAM
Solid State: Incredit P5 Plus 1TB PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD
Graphics: AMD RX 6700 XT public card
Power supply: Fractal process Rated 850 Gold power supply
Before testing, the relevant information is detected by CPU-Z, the core specification of Ryzen 7 5700X is on the left, using 8 core/12 thread configuration; the right is the core specification of Ryzen 5600, using 6 core/12 thread configuration.
First look at the performance of the more high-end Ryzen 7 5700X on the base CPU running score, from the comparison data below, you can see that the single-core/multi-core score in the CPU-Z Bench project falls below 630/5,960 points, slightly lower than the Ryzen 7 5800X's 650/6,585 points, but the Ryzen 7 5700X's power consumption is only 65W. Compared to the 5800X reaching 105W or even Intel's 12700K power consumption of up to 125W, the "performance per watt" performance of the Ryzen 7 5700X can be said to be extremely good.
As for the data comparison of Cinebench R23, it can be seen that the gap between 5700X and 5800X is very small, and the single-core score is only less than 50 points behind, and the amplitude is only about 3%, but there are some gaps in the multi-core part, and the data comparison can refer to the comparison chart below.
The Ryzen 7 5700X consumes only 65W of power, but the performance is already quite close to the 105W Ryzen 7 5800X.
The Ryzen 7 5700X is an excellent power and performance, but the CINEBENCH R23 multi-core performance gap can be nearly doubled before Intel's strongest mid-to-high-end processor, the Core i7-12700K.
On the Ryzen 5 5600 side, the same through the CPU-Z Bench and Cinebench R23 to look at the data comparison, CPU-Z Bench single-core / multi-core running score fell at about 612 / 4860 points, obviously weaker than the previous 5700X performance, but if you compare the Ryzen 5 5600X running score (643 / 4,989) can be found that although the multi-core gap is not large, but the single core has some micro-gaps, about 5% In addition, the Ryzen 5 5600 will be weaker than the 5600X at overclocking.
Cinebench R23 is somewhat different from the previous 5700X performance, in addition to the 5600X score has a gap of about 5-6% lower, compared to Intel's i5-12500/12400 in the same price range, there is also a slight gap, detailed data can see the following data comparison chart.
The multi-core performance of the Ryzen 5 5600 in CPU-Z is not much different from that of the Ryzen 5600X and Core i5-12400, but the single core is significantly weakened.
The CINEBECNH R23 is sensitive to core performance, and the gap between the Ryzen 5 5600 and the other two processors has widened slightly.
Performance is of course not only determined by CPU-Z and Cinebench R23, common 3DMARK tests, the performance of the processor will also have a certain impact on the DX12 content of the Time Spy and DX11 Fire Strike, especially the lower the resolution, the more obvious the effect, in the same RX 6700 XT graphics card test conditions, Ryzen 7 5700X can be more than Ryzen 5 5600 more than about 1, 000~1,500 points.
Ryzen 7 5700X and Ryzen 5 5600 running scores at Time Spy.
As can be seen in the figure, in the lower resolution Offire Strike, the Ryzen 7 5700X and the Ryzen 5 5600 have a large performance gap, but with the increase in resolution, the difference is almost minimal when it comes to the Fire Strike Ultra.
In terms of game testing, all games use the highest quality setting, while turning off the vertical synchronization, dynamic resolution and other interference options, if the game supports ray tracing, DLSS, FSR, then all adjusted to the highest quality mode.
Overall, the game's optimization method will directly image the cpu weight, such as in "Watchdog: Freedom Legion", the two processors get the FPS value is basically the same, but in "Polar Howl 6", Ryzen 7 5700X can be up to 10 FPS faster than Ryzen 5600, but just like the previous 3DMARK test results, as the resolution increases, the gap between the two processors will gradually decrease.
Watchdog: Freedom Legion is less cpu-dependent, with the two processors running exactly the same.
The Ryzen 7 5700X had a slightly better performance in Assassin's Creed, but the gap was really only a little bit, and the actual experience did not feel the difference.
Polar Howl 6 has a significant FPS difference, with the Ryzen 7 5700X having a higher FPS bonus at 1080P and 1440P.
AMD's new Ryzen 7 5700X can almost be said to be an improved version of the Ryzen 7 5800X in many aspects, not only the performance is close, even the price is quite close, but the power consumption is greatly reduced, allowing players to buy and install water cooling or large tower fans without spending too much energy and money, which can be regarded as a product that will "save trouble" to the extreme.
As for the situation of Ryzen 5 5600, it is more subtle, the performance can not be compared with Ryzen 5600X, not to mention the official intention to be positioned in the opponent i5-12400 (laughs), and the price is lower than Ryzen 5600X but in fact, it is limited, even if the price is close to the opponent's i5-12400, but the gap in all aspects is not so large that it is particularly felt, although there is still a 5500 not in this test, But it is not difficult to imagine AMD's intention to fill the 5000 series in the entry-level side, including the Zen2 architecture Ryzen 3 4100, Ryzen 5 4500 and Ryzen 5 4600G, which also appeared this time, which is a choice between the original Athlon 3000G and 5600G.
