“Ryzen 7 is aimed at the enthusiast market
While Ryzen 5 was set to stun the consumer market. The R5 1600 certainly achieves that goal
And would make a great addition to any powerful work or gaming PC

Abstract: These new AMD Ryzen 5 1600 and Ryzen 5 1400 CPUs are pretty amazing. Great value, 6 core and 4 core chips that are unlocked and ready for overclocking. In this video, I test them both!1600: prourls.co/w6J8 1600 OCUK: bit.ly/2qwvG5n 1400: prourls.co/KP68 1...
Highly competitive performance, Well rounded platform cost, Easy to overclock, Sense MI technologies, Delivers more cores to the mainstream
Ryzen 5 doesn't ship with RGB cooler, Same power envelope as Ryzen 7, No iGPU
In our testing, the Ryzen 5 1400 holds its own against the i5 7600K for the most part, and often trades blows with the i7 7700K. It is at this point where it is worth mentioning that it is priced to compete against the i5 7400. AMD clearly was not lying w...

We don't think this comparison calls for any further analysis. It's evidently clear that if you want to build a budget gaming PC, investing in a quad core to save even $50 is not worth it. You will have to deal with frame stuttering in a number of more de...

That was our quick look at how the Ryzen 5 1600 AF performs and the results were as positive as we expected. It's a Ryzen 5 2600 with very minor reduction in clock speed. Speaking of which, you can of course overclock the 1600 AF as it's fully unlocked. O...

Abstract: This is a comparison we've been wanting to put together for some time. With Computex 2019 out of the way and the full confirmation of 3rd-gen Ryzen, before that hits us here's an updated comparison between the Ryzen 5 1600 and Core i5-7600K. It's time to...

Abstract: The leaks have been flying hard and fast for weeks, but this morning, AMD is officially taking the wraps off its second-generation Ryzen CPUs. Four new chips have been waiting in the wings, and they'll be available for pre-order around the world starting...

We've have a pretty good look at application and game performance. As expected Intel's faster in games for the most part, while AMD's faster for most of the heavy workloads we tested, that being the situation this is how I look at it. Even with a GTX 1080...

The R3 2200G offers highly competitive performance at its price and, ultimately, really has no immediate competition. At $100, the CPU offers 78-85% of the performance of the R5 2400G at 58% of the price. Not bad at all. We can strongly recommend the R3 2...

Abstract: Our most recent CPU roundup pitted Intel's 7th and 8th-gen Core i5 and Core i7s against AMD's Ryzen 5 and 7 by playing and benchmarking nine representative PC games at multiple resolutions. In total eight new CPUs were tested at their base clock speeds...
Ryzen platform is very stable now, 6-cores, 12-threads, Fully unlocked, Comes with CPU cooler, Great performance compared to Intel's i5-8400
Gaming performance still lacks, Single-threaded performance is still behind Intel
If you have read our review of the Ryzen 7 1700 from earlier this year you know that we complained at how untested and unstable the Ryzen platform really was at launch. I think that most people who reviewed or purchased Ryzen parts right when the platform...
