Adopting the AM4 platform back in 2018 was the best gaming PC decision I ever made. Went from a 2400G to a 5600X3D on the same motherboard for $160usd.
@@user-gq3eq5bf9t i'd say it REAALLY depends on your budget, but also on what you want from your PC. If you are on a tight budget, like 500-800$ (or € or pounds for that matter) then i guess AM4 is still very, very viable. You can build a PC for roughly 700-800 bucks on AM4 with the 5700x3d or if you need it around the 500-600$ mark, you could go for a Ryzen 5600(X), depending on the deal you find. I am in Germany and I can get a Ryzen 5 5600 with the Boxed cooler for 91€. paired with a cheap motherboard (maybe 100€, can be cheaper), some 32gb DDR4 RAM (60€), Storage as needed and a possibly used GPU or a new one on a deal, you can get really budget and that PC can last you the next couple years, maybe even till AM6 drops, or at least until the next Series of big CPUs drop. If you have more than like 800 bucks or so for budget, i guess going for the 7000series or the 9000series starts to become the better option. its just better cpu performance, upgrading is easier and so on. i guess above 1000$ budget i would say you should always go for AM5, since it is decently cheap to get into these days (7600x for 200€ in germany, DDR5 is not MUCH more expensive than DDR4). Hope i could help, still recommend checking out other opinions tho!
The 5600(x) is a great chip up to (about) the 7800xt lvl of performance but the 5700x3d can extend your AM4 platform into the future with the upcoming GPU generation like the RX8000 or Battlemage B series cards while giving you better 1% lows today. I'd like to see a retest with the new cards in the near future Tech Guided! The cheap and effective 5700x3d is the main reason not to go with AM5 at least for now.
started with ryzen 5 1400 in 2017 to ryzen 5 3600 in 2021 and finally ryzen 5 5700x3d on my b350 motherboard am4 is such a good investment and the motherboard prices werent expensive on release like the am5 platform
I got a B450 board in 2017-2018 (whenever they came out) on Black Friday for $90. Put a 1600 on it. Then a 3600. Then a 3700x ($20 from a friend.). Recently put a 5600X in that I got used for $50. Not much of an upgrade, but will hold me for at least another year. Running a 5700XT video card which I got used for $125 a year ago. AMD did a great job w/AM4.
I just found a 5700x3D used for $140. It replaced a 5700x that I sold for $120 a week later. Paired with a 3060ti on 1080p 180hz. Makes for a great shop pc to stream or game on.
I upgraded my PC from a 1800X (built in 2017) to the 5700X3D while still using my EVGA 1080 Ti SC2 Hybrid GPU. Before the upgrade, I never saw the GPU hit 100% utilization-it just shows how ahead of its time the 1080 Ti was. With the 5700X3D, it's finally running at full capacity now!
That was exactly the video I was searching for! I have a 5600x and was wondering if I upgrade to the 5700x3D or wait save up and juste change to AM5 completly. I think with this video I’ll stick to the 5600x for now even tho the 1% is better with the 5700x3D Thank you for your videos
If you wanna a real uplift performance go AM5, I have no regret from ryzen 5600x to 7900 non x all gaming PC or emulation (AVX-512 instructions set give a huge bust to modern emulation). On PC side better frames more stable at all. It can handle any gpu you put on it.
I purchased the 5700X3D for under $150 at Microcenter and sold my 5600X for $80. For a $70 upgrade I got the extra 3D V cache technology, and a few more cores. As a bonus, the upgrade made a considerable difference in Warzone and Fortnite. I have it paired with an XFX 6950XT and it is slaying all games at 1440P. Very happy with the set up.
I went from a 11600k to a 5700x3d and it was a night and day difference with my 4070 super. I thought upgrading my 3060ti to a 4070 super would help my cpu but i ended up changing my platform to Am4 for 290$ 190$ for the cpu and 100$ for the mobo all new during black friday. Definitely worth it over am5 since im not planning on keeping my current build for longer than a year but didnt wanna spend too much on a totally new build
You could have bought a 7600x for $190 and a b650 for $120. Sell your old hardware to cover the ram cost. The 7600x is faster on avg than the 5800x3D and has better IPC than zen3 and clock speed is 1400mhz faster than a 5700x3D. I own both. Crazy to pay $290 on AM4 when Am5 was the same price. 😢
I would advise AGAINST going from a 10th gen or newer Intel to AM4, despite the x3D chips greatness. If you're doing an entire platform change, get AM5. You won't be able to upgrade from the 5700x3D but you can from say a 7500F that will net you similar performance. The x3D chips are great for people ALREADY on AM4, not for new builds.
Very useful real world testing, thank you! Also these slightly older CPUs like R5 5600x are better paired with Radeon GPUs due to the more efficient drivers.
Brother, when you compare CPUs you MUST, HAVE TO, NEED TO show the graph because the most important thing between those two CPUs is the 1% low which is the consistency or the smoothness of the game, which is better to feel it than to see a number for it, because people might think that a 10-40% difference in the 1% lows is not that big of deal Im in middle of the video and until now you started talking about the 1% lows and I believe that most people whose watching this won't complete the video to the end so you should clarify whats the main difference between CPUs are from the beginning so people know where to spot the difference And thanks for the video
Yeah, I probably should have emphasized the importance of the 1% low performance in the intro. The 1% lows are in the graphs, but I think I need to rethink how I show the graphs as it might be too small for some people to read. Maybe split it between showing the gameplay with the overlay and then switching to a full screen view of the graph. In any case, thank you for the feedback and will rethink how I present it for the next video.
Note the wattage of the 5700x3D in comparison to the 5600x. While the performance increase isn't substantial most of the time, the power consumption, cpu usage and heat production shrank considerably. This is a plus. A definitive plus, because you fare better with the same (or slightly better-) performance, but use less power to do that.
Did a similar test with the addition of a 5700X and used a 4070 TI Super. Where the X3D part is locked, the 5700x is unlocked and can be tuned in the Adrenalin Software. The 5700x is a good upgrade from a 3600x or similar CPU and is around $100 cheaper than the X3D part.
The 5700X3D is a great *upgrade* but it's not that good for new builds. Also don't forget to people who want 4K gaming on Am4, the 5800X will get the same FPS while having way better productivity while still being sold brand new. So honestly the 5700X3D is good for an AM4 upgrade that is still on 1080p but nothing else
just upgraded from 2700x which i got when it launched to 5700x3d. paid a third less for this new solid cpu and am getting twice the performance. best bet to stretch that am4 build just a few more years (2-4 more years).
Your conclusion is completely misleading. "Bottleneck" does not address the elephant in the room. That's why it's very important when building a PC to pair components that complement each other. What you video shows is the 5600 was a good match for the 7800xt. only what to actually compare the performance difference between the 2 CPUs in a "video game scenario" would be using a 4090 and then to further push the CPUs to their limits lower the resolution forcing each CPU to their respected limits. Good luck with your chanel I'm a fan of content like this.
Yeah, I see what you're saying, but it wasn't really meant to be a true CPU comparison benchmark, but rather a "what kind of performance gain does my system get when I drop in the 5700X3D."
I am in the same boat. I have a 5600x in my rig now and there is a 5700x3D in a box sitting next to the rig. But I also have a 7900 xt also sitting in a box. I am of the opinion that the 7900 xt will bottle neck the 5600x even at 1440, maybe not at 4k though as that is where the limit of the GPU will start to kick in.
Agreed, I really need to mix in some MMOs and competitive shooters into the games I test, but those style games are harder to get consistent benchmarks on.
be interesting to see a non-x3d chip like the 5950x, 5900x, or 5800x. then would be able to see if its the extra core making the different, or the extra cache making the difference.
Yes, I originally had a dual-fan, single-tower PC specialist air cooler that came with my pre-built system, which I used initially with no issues (other than it being noisier than I desired). I switched to a Shadow Rock 3, which is whisper-quiet and performs slightly better. It idles at around 30 degrees Celsius, and while gaming on demanding titles, I've never seen it exceed 60 degrees Celsius; it normally hovers around 50, give or take. The old one had similar performance but was noisier with its two bargain fans buuuring. The point is, it's not difficult to cool. (both were/are 5 pipe btw)
Yeah, absolutely, I just did a video where I tested a few budget-oriented coolers on the 5600X and 5700X3D and the 5700X3D did very well on the Thermalright Burst Assassin 120 (6 heat pipes) and even did well enough on the smaller ID-COOLING SE-903-XT (3 heat pipes).
I went from a 5600x (Great cpu for the money) to 5800x3d. I noticed an almost undescribable difference in "smoothness" in gaming and even desktop tasks with the 5800x3d, it "feels better". Maybe it's the extra cores, I don't know.
The jump from my old 2600 to my 5800X3D was literally mind blowing. My PC became literally the snappiest, smoothest Windows PC I've ever used, to the point anything slower has become frustrating to use because it feels like it crawls in comparison.
Because the AM4 X3D chips are made by slapping 3dVcache on regular 5600/x and 5800/x Ryzen chips AMD had lying around that didn't meet performance targets in quality assurance testing. So their max PBO can vary pretty wildly, especially with the 5700X3D because it's made from chips that weren't good enough to meet the standards to be sold as the 5800X3D. Some people have also reported that b450 boards and x570 boards offer improved performance over the 350 and 370 boards with X3D and 5000 series Ryzen in general thanks to improvements to power delivery, but it's not a whole lot of performance difference even in the most extreme cases. In short, the creator lost the silicon lottery, you won the silicon lottery.
Yes! Definitely! I went from a 5600X to a 5700X3D paired with a 4070 and I couldn't be happier! Most of the annoying microstutters are gone (depending on the game.) At 1440p it's a great pair. I say just do it man, go for it! You won't regret it. 😉
Depends on the games you play, but considering you're seeing a significant enough bottleneck to comment about it, I'm guessing you're playing games that are CPU bound and so the 5700X3D would likely be a very worthwhile upgrade for you.
I looked into this and wasn’t going to bother. The difference between a 5700x and a 5700x3d just isn’t worth it. The real upgrade is just max the AM4 with the a 5900xt or 5950x
The 5900 series is really a productivity/workstation CPU line, and really only beats the 5800 line in the most CPU intensive strategy and sim titles since most games aren't optimized to really take advantage of more than 8 cores.
Sad that I am on a lga 1700 with 12400f :( and switching to am4 seems useless (used market value is also almost non existent in my place as they still sell it at a high price despite being used)
Maybe look at the 12600? I have AM4 with a 5600X, with the same GPU, my son's 12600K kicks ace in gaming. Both systems are running DDR4. Just my two cents.
@@GB-zi6qr idk if that's worth imo, but I've been looking at 12700k as it sometimes goes on sale for cheap on amazon. But I'll probably just save for the new upcoming platforms as the 12400f still does me good.
starfield is a gpu bound game... try it with a arc a770 and 5700x3d and you will be struggling with it like i was at around 50 fps or below no matter what settings.. now iv got my tuf gaming rx7800xt 16gb im riding them frames easy at high settings...
Yeah I have that set up 5600x and a 7800xt, and I just can't see the benefit of going to the 5700x3d. I have a 32" 1440p display so the difference is not going to be much. Its also hard when the 7600 and 7600x are so cheap.
@@mikem9267 Yeah, if you find a used one close to what you can sell the 5600x then I would for sure. All my AM4 builds (8) except one were sold off for AM5. I wanted to sell the very nice x570, 5600 or better setups while the market was still hot for AM4. I snagged amazing AM5 deals and most of them were very low out of pocket. I would just watch local ads and when you find a killer deal just buy it and part out the AM4 stuff. I bought a sealed 7600 for $150 and new 7800x3D for $220. Lots of deals out there.
Adopting the AM4 platform back in 2018 was the best gaming PC decision I ever made. Went from a 2400G to a 5600X3D on the same motherboard for $160usd.

Brother, when you compare CPUs you MUST, HAVE TO, NEED TO show the graph because the most important thing between those two CPUs is the 1% low which is the consistency or the smoothness of the game, which is better to feel it than to see a number for it, because people might think that a 10-40% difference in the 1% lows is not that big of deal

It's out of production, go figure...
I went from a 3700x to a 5800X3D. It was worth it. The chip cost me $300 so I didn't pay full retail for the thing.
What I’m looking for now is an MMO benchmark and how those type of games are impacted by the 3D cache
Agreed, I really need to mix in some MMOs and competitive shooters into the games I test, but those style games are harder to get consistent benchmarks on.
For gaming, it is smarter to invest in a better GPU than in a CPU from the same generation.
Depends on the games you play, but putting more into your GPU is typically better for gaming use-cases.

be interesting to see a non-x3d chip like the 5950x, 5900x, or 5800x. then would be able to see if its the extra core making the different, or the extra cache making the difference.
Cache.
Great idea for a future video, thank you!
I’m wanting to swap the exact same cpus as I just got a 4070tis and want more use out of my x570 mobo. It sounds like this card needs that L3 cache.

Thank you for buying AMD. Support the underdog people, if you want better prices and greater leaps in performance.
Amd is no longer the underdog when it comes to cpu, unless you mean the gpu side
@silverplayer7502 They are but not by a giant margin anymore. Avoid AMD if they become the largest to help out the competition.
Isn't the rx 7800xt high end?
Yeah I suppose you could put it in that category. Either lower high-end or upper mid-range depending on how you view it.

The jump from my old 2600 to my 5800X3D was literally mind blowing. My PC became literally the snappiest, smoothest Windows PC I've ever used, to the point anything slower has become frustrating to use because it feels like it crawls in comparison.
Why is your 5700X3D only boosting to 4.025 GHz my 5600X3D locks in @ 4.450 GHz
Because the AM4 X3D chips are made by slapping 3dVcache on regular 5600/x and 5800/x Ryzen chips AMD had lying around that didn't meet performance targets in quality assurance testing. So their max PBO can vary pretty wildly, especially with the 5700X3D because it's made from chips that weren't good enough to meet the standards to be sold as the 5800X3D. Some people have also reported that b450 boards and x570 boards offer improved performance over the 350 and 370 boards with X3D and 5000 series Ryzen in general thanks to improvements to power delivery, but it's not a whole lot of performance difference even in the most extreme cases.
In short, the creator lost the silicon lottery, you won the silicon lottery.
@baronvonslambert yeah but so was my 5600X3D Granted I do undervolt it and that helps it performance and temps
5700X3D max frequency is 4.1 GHz look it up. Boosting to only 4025MHz or 4050MHz is to be expected.
My 5600 ischoking my 4070 super, is the upgrade to 5700x3d worth it?
Yes! Definitely!
I went from a 5600X to a 5700X3D paired with a 4070 and I couldn't be happier! Most of the annoying microstutters are gone (depending on the game.) At 1440p it's a great pair. I say just do it man, go for it! You won't regret it. 😉
Depends on the games you play, but considering you're seeing a significant enough bottleneck to comment about it, I'm guessing you're playing games that are CPU bound and so the 5700X3D would likely be a very worthwhile upgrade for you.
@@TechGuided Even on Cyberpunk at 1440p I'm seeing my cpu usage spike up to 60% at some places
I looked into this and wasn’t going to bother. The difference between a 5700x and a 5700x3d just isn’t worth it. The real upgrade is just max the AM4 with the a 5900xt or 5950x
The 5900 series is really a productivity/workstation CPU line, and really only beats the 5800 line in the most CPU intensive strategy and sim titles since most games aren't optimized to really take advantage of more than 8 cores.
Sad that I am on a lga 1700 with 12400f :( and switching to am4 seems useless (used market value is also almost non existent in my place as they still sell it at a high price despite being used)
Maybe look at the 12600? I have AM4 with a 5600X, with the same GPU, my son's 12600K kicks ace in gaming. Both systems are running DDR4.
Just my two cents.
@@GB-zi6qr idk if that's worth imo, but I've been looking at 12700k as it sometimes goes on sale for cheap on amazon. But I'll probably just save for the new upcoming platforms as the 12400f still does me good.
@@silverplayer7502 all good. The hard part is deciding whether or not to upgrade.
starfield is a gpu bound game... try it with a arc a770 and 5700x3d and you will be struggling with it like i was at around 50 fps or below no matter what settings.. now iv got my tuf gaming rx7800xt 16gb im riding them frames easy at high settings...
Yeah I have that set up 5600x and a 7800xt, and I just can't see the benefit of going to the 5700x3d. I have a 32" 1440p display so the difference is not going to be much. Its also hard when the 7600 and 7600x are so cheap.
@@mikem9267 Yeah, if you find a used one close to what you can sell the 5600x then I would for sure. All my AM4 builds (8) except one were sold off for AM5. I wanted to sell the very nice x570, 5600 or better setups while the market was still hot for AM4. I snagged amazing AM5 deals and most of them were very low out of pocket. I would just watch local ads and when you find a killer deal just buy it and part out the AM4 stuff. I bought a sealed 7600 for $150 and new 7800x3D for $220. Lots of deals out there.
had got one from microcenter for 175
