With the Ryzen 7 5700X, AMD is finally offering a more affordable 8-core processor. In our review, we take a close look at how this $265 CPU performs against the Ryzen 7 5800X, and also compare it to Intel's Alder Lake lineup, including the i5-12600K and i7-12700K.

4.5Ghz stable all-core OC is quite impressive using just 1.17V. Going back to your 5800X review, you needed 1.39V to achieve a stable 4.6Ghz OC.

Do you think this lends credence to the theory that this being manufactured on a refined and very mature 7nm process node means higher/better overclocking potential compared to nearly 2 years ago?

If I'm looking at this correctly, this is now the highest performance 65W TDP CPU available?

Latest 3600 samples proved that, just as 5600 and now 5700X does.

*Ryzen 7 5800X offers better price/performance for $10 more.

The 5800X runs hotter, though.

The higher 4.7Ghz or even 4.8Ghz if you are very lucky OC with the Ryzen 5600 still makes it a better CPU imo. I've never been able to get a high all core OC with the 8 core models.

I have this Cpu and I love it. Paired with an Asus ROG Strix B550-f gaming. This thing fly's. I haven't even overclocked it yet and I super happy with it's performance. I got it at a great deal and discount from Amazon for $239.

It's so funny when you go "5800X is faster for only $10 more", "12600k is cheaper and faster" and then you go "highly recommended".
I mean, we all know why, but it's still funny.

Just need the 5500 cpu now and all wrapped up.

Those load temp deltas compared to the 5800x though!! Same cooler??

Law of diminishing returns.

AMD is off on their pricing. 5600 more expensive than the 5600X and the 5700X $10 cheaper than the 5800X!!!

I bought the 5600X when it was released at full MSRP, upgrading from the 2600X and have not regretted it. I just don't see much value in spending more on an 8 core cpu. The new Intel lineup looks strong, but the value that AMD brought with their AM4 platform makes it cheap and easy to swap out the cpu when I need a boost. I am sad that AMD are ending AM4 platform. I had fun with my 1700x->2600x->5600x

Depends on country. Prices seem to be fluctuating quite a bit lately.

Nodes just advance over time. So yeah a batch from 2 years ago might show different characteristics compared to a batch from now.

But all is primarily build for EPYC and any defective or less performing CPU is pushed to the mid to lower end models. If i'm correct they pay up to 35K per wafer and really minimum of that gets lost.

Performance/W is really dam good. So for those who get sick from looking at their power bills it might be the a better pick over the 5800X.

Kinda a bummer it only comes with 32MB cache, 64MB would surely be nice. :cool: Looking how the 5800X3D just shreds all other CPU's in games.
But I guess they want to reserve the killer cache for Zen4.

I would probably wait abit longer. If you are mainly gaming with your PC then something like the 5600X3D (rumored) would be a much better in terms of gaming performance.
However pricing and when and if it will launch another matter.

I didn't buy the 5700X for the simple reason the 12600K is cheaper and faster. Until that changes I personally dont think that its good value.
You could sell your current motherboard and CPU and get than the 12600K cheaper the 5700X and a LGA 1700 DDR4 board with the funds you get from you mobo and CPU sale and reuse you current RAM and have a much faster gaming setup than the 5700X.

Too little, too late AMD; as others have mentioned, this is basically the same price as 5800x, while the better-in-every-regard 12600k is actually cheaper!

This is the CPU of choice for mini ITX builds and ecologically aware users as it combines performance with low temperatures and a low TDP.

Stock vs stock perhaps so, but you can tune 12600k to the same level of power usage and it will still perform better, especially in single thread!

You are also forgetting you can further tune ZEN 3 and UV and UC and get higher efficiency and less TDP which will negate the alder lake UV and UC.

According to de8auer Alder lake needs the higher frequency and with it higher Power consumption in order to compete with ZEN 3.
