I built a new computer and chose this as my CPU. Runs great so far, but it can get a little hot when running under full load, so I would make sure to also buy a motherboard that allows you to undervolt the CPU so it doesn't get as hot, or have good cooling.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than my previous CPU
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2024
Pattern: CPU OnlyStyle: Ryzen 5 7600XVerified Purchase
It's a powerful processor. 20x times better than the Ryzen 3600 I had, but just to give some details about how good it is :
I can now Render things in blender in less than a minute, with the Ryzen 3600 it would take me over 10 minutes depending on the workload. Same with Unity,
uploading things/rendering them or even unpacking them would feel like it was ages. With this processor it feels like it takes seconds, while in reality it takes a minute or so depending on how heavy the unity package is.
As for gaming, and/or multi-tasking,
I do not play Fortnite that much at all, however I do know it is a CPU intensive game. I played it with the 3600 and dear lord my frames kept on dying at times, going from locked 60 to who knows what.
With this new CPU it did not only stop dying, but I got a frame boost, from a 60 frame cap, I am now able to run the game at 144 frames, with a GPU bottleneck.
At 144 frames, the CPU goes up to 40% and 80% at times but for not very long.
Yes, I run chrome, Spotify, discord in between others at times. It does not give my CPU any issues to run these while gaming.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nearly the Same Performance as the 7700X but for Less
Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2023
Pattern: CPU OnlyStyle: Ryzen 5 7600XVerified Purchase
I have absolutely zero complaints about this processor. I originally had a 7700X, but I decided to sell it and get the 7600X in its place- that was a perfect decision. The 7600X is an absolute powerhouse. While you do lose a couple of cores, and may lose some productivity performance in terms of video editing and graphic design, there is barely a difference when it comes to games.

In the games I tested, such as Cyberpunk, GTA V, RDR2, and Borderlands 3, I averaged only about a 2-4 FPS difference compared to when I was using the 7700X. It also helps extensively with cooling, as this only has a TDP of 65W at its best efficiency compared to the 7700X's 105W. However, despite the lower TDP, the 7600X can still get fairly hot, as I still found that my AIO wouldn't stop it from still reaching the lower 80's in more demanding titles.

One major thing to note about the 7600X (or all AM5 processors in general) is that due to the new heat spreader design, you will need to make sure that you use a compatible cooler that uses a mounting system that will still apply adequate pressure, and also to be careful if you ever need to remove the CPU as it is harder to grip it by the sides. It's also very easy for thermal paste to fall into the grooves of the new IHS, but this won't be an issue as long as you steer clear of metal-based thermal solutions (unless you know what you're doing.)

Overall, the Ryzen 5 7600X is the best value bargain deal in terms of ALL CPUs on the market right now- regardless if you prefer AMD or Intel. There is simply no CPU with as much performance, versatility, and general range of use in terms of its cost. Additionally, the periodic sales make it even more of a value deal, and I would definitely suggest getting the 7600X over all the other options if all you primarily do is streaming, gaming, or general use. I highly recommend it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Best midrange CPU?
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2024
Pattern: CPU OnlyStyle: Ryzen 5 7600XVerified Purchase
I'm running this with a sapphire pulse 7800 xt. I checked bottleneck and it said paired nicely so I bought them and it works great . CPU utilization is never too high , it has run hot a few times one noticeably during stress test . But I don't have issues with this that I know of and I'm happy with it knowing it's AM5 with room to upgrade in the future . Think it's a good mid range CPU for the money.

Pattern: CPU OnlyStyle: Ryzen 5 7600XVerified Purchase
Olá, como vai? venho informar algumas coisinhas sobre essa compra.

entrega: comprei no dia 16/03 e recebi no dia 19/04 ( mais de 1 mês antes do prazo que era de até dia 04/06 )
embalagem: veio bem embalado, caixa chegou intacta.
processador: testado, funcionando perfeitamente.

utilização: processador foi instalado em uma placa mãe relativamente barata (biostar b650mt R$ 599,00) estou utilizando um air cooler (ak500s digital R$ 250,00 )
estou com memorias a 6000mhz sem conflito nenhum.
testes: com este kit, temperatura em standy by está em cerca de 45 graus, temperatura durante jogos por volta de 65/75 graus ( fica variando )
temperatura máxima? utilizando o programa funmark para estresse do processador, tive o máximo de 84 graus. ainda fora do limite.
portanto, está em duvida de qual processador comprar para sua plataforma am5, recomendo esse com toda certeza.

pelo valor que paguei, acredito que nao tenha custo beneficio melhor do que esse para a plataforma am5

I bought this for my new PC build and it's a very good CPU that can run any game that you can think of. Well of course paired with a specific GPU that won't bottleneck. This CPU can also be good to used for video editing, video streaming, etc.

This CPU requires an AM5 Motherboard

I have had nothing but good performance. I have not overclocked my CPU or PC, in general, there is no point in overclocking unless you want to, it's personal preference. But, this ryzen 5 7600x can still run very well without being overclocked.

The price is worth it if you are looking for a CPU that should last for at least; the 2030s, since ryzen will release AM5 CPU generations for another couple more years 2-4 years or more. So in the future, you could upgrade your CPU to a newer version if you want. until "AM6" ever comes out

Der Einbau dieses Prozessors war relativ unproblematisch. Die Leistung ist sehr gut, vor allem auch bei Spielen, wo ich einen deutlichen Geschwindigkeits-Vorteil gegenüber meinem vorherigen Prozessor festgestellt habe.
