  • The Ryzen 7 5700G is still the best desktop APU at the time of this video, and while it potentially made the GPU shortage a little more bearable for some gamers', it's difficult to recommend now that things are getting better.

    recently built a pc with a 4600G, and honestly these Ryzen APUs surprise me a lot. coming from an older intel iGPU where i would have to run anything at 800x600, seeing my games running at 720p with decent graphics is honestly a nice change. im quite happy with it

    I'm always amazed at how well 5600G and 5700G can run new games despite only having Vega graphics. One of these with RDNA3 graphics would be insane. I know they exist in the laptop space (with the 7040 Phoenix APU series) but, I want a desktop one so bad. If they ever release a 7600G, after AM5 motherboard and DDR5 prices have dropped a bit, this would be the ultimate budget gaming machine.

      the full 11 compute units helps over the smaller apus . its about as good as a 1050 . very solid for built in solution compared to old intel as stated. the choice in ram is more important as well. generally as fast as possible for the chip with lowest CAS . will get the best access times with 4 sticks vs 2 . minor improvement to fps and much better 1% lows. i was testing on 3200 g albeit.

The GPU is from 51Risc, I heard of the brand from the Toasty Bros. I'm enjoying it very much. Since I never experienced gaming with high graphics games before coz we couldn't afford a good PC or console.

    Really enjoy the testing all throughout the hardware stack, from old gpus, to apus and even new power houses. Ofc it's not that in depth like a HUB or GamersNexus, but equally enjoyable. The only thing I really would like to mention is while some of these new titles are not very well optimized for sure, newer games just NEED more hardware, because they clearly want to portray better visuals. Heard several developers say in podcasts and interviews that there is just so much optimization you can do to fit new visuals and high fidelity scenes into "smaller" VRAM and Ram buffers.

    • @Jasontvnd9
      @Jasontvnd9 Год назад +7

      @philipreininger2549 Год назад +2

      @@Jasontvnd9 kind of true. With the last of us being an example of a bad port I totally agree with u. But if you look at Hogwarts legacy, the game is averagely ported and looks amazing imo. But with it’s console first approach it can quickly eat up a lot of memory. Cyberpunk also is quite intensive, but at least gives us unseen raytracing effects etc. so I guess most of the time you do get nice visuals, but pcs just have too much latency issues communicating between ram, gpu, cpu and ssd. The entire data shuffling on console is done extremely well and since they only got 1 or 2 hardware configurations everything can be fine tuned. Pc gaming is basically just brutforcing everything with 3x the performance for a 1.5x better result. Maybe I’m going of track a little, the thing I basically wanted to say, not EVERY new game is badly optimized (some are), BUT almost every new game will be more and more hardware intensive 😂

      @philipreininger2549 I wouldn't even say hogwarts looks that great , Compare it to a game like Horizon : Zero Dawn and it looks worse.
      Cyberpunk is different , It looks better on a mid range pc using say a 3060ti than it does on console , Largely due to the consoles weak RT performance.
      The problem is optimization , They will rush out a console port on pc because they know most of the player base can brute force it , Not ideal but unfortunately probably going forward will become much more common.

    680m kind of changed the igpu landscape massively. It's tough to justify a 5700G only build when you can buy a 6800u miniPC for a similar price or get an used RX 580 which will be a massive improvement. And because of the lower amount of l3 cache and very high price relative to other options it's a questionable CPU for dGPU builds.

    This is a great CPU for pfsense if you have a 10Gbps internet connection like I do. The iGPU means no need for a discrete GPU so you can go Mini-ITX and use the PCIe x16 3.0 slot for a Dual 10Gbps NIC.
    I used the ASUS TUF GAMING B550M-PLUS WiFi II motherboard (mATX) and got its 2.5Gbps Realtek NIC to work with PFsense for my Wifi 6E AP. I have two separate Dual 10GBps NICS in the PCIe slots on the TUF board. So that's 4x 10Gbps ports and 1x 2.5Gbps. The Ryzen 7 5700G's 16 threads and 8 cores handle routing at 10Gbps quite nicely especially with all of the security apps I have running on my box. It also handles the AES-NI VPN acceleration for my OpenVPN server running in pfsense.
    All in all, a really great CPU for that task. It's power usage is also quite low when you're not using the GPU. Around 60-75W at full CPU load. Believe it or not, that's actually quite good for a Firewall of that calibre.

      Unfortunately your CPU is a bit old and is going to be a bit of a bottleneck even on bare metal in any super modern games, and the 1650 only has 4 GB of VRAM. The game is very intensive on texture use and VRAM. My first recommendation would be to upgrade your CPU if you can. Most AM4 motherboards have kept getting BIOS updates and should be able to support Ryzen 5000 series if you update the BIOS, which would get you out of the bottleneck zone. Maybe get a Ryzen 5 5500 if you can get it for cheap. For the GPU, you'll really want something with 8 GB or more to play a game like that and prevent stutter. If you can get a used RX 580 or a GTX 1660 Ti (or Super) you will have a much better experience.

    However now it is in a Mini ITX build to which i've added an RTX 2060, and a Samsung 1440p gaming monitor and it performs equally well, but ultimately i intend to pair the 5700g with an AMD 6700xt or similar AMD 6000 series as i've seen that you can utilise both the Radeon in built graphics, and the GPU's graphics to work in tandem, so in effect dual graphics similar to the old "crossfire" system.

    I play older games mostly, but also elden ring and I am looking forward to starfield. The only thing that really doesnt want to play is Star Citizen. Its a great little APU but the new minisforum or beelink pre builts are a better bang for your buck. Unless you get a used deal I guess.

    My current rig has a 5600G on a X570 and is paired with a 5700 Pulse.
    As weird as this may sound, said X570 is the AsRock Gaming-ITX which actually has Thunderbolt 3 and thus comes in handy to me as a VR player who likes to keep his Quest charged.
    I probably could still replace the 5600G with a 5800X3D but the APU/GPU combo works fine for me on 1080p.
    Plus I hate e-waste, so I wouldn't put it anywhere.

    I have the 5700G in my main rig because it was about $150 cheaper than the X when I bought it. But at this point, I'll probably replace it with a better CPU and use the 5700G for a small form factor build that I can hook up to the TV in the master bedroom for media playing + light gaming.

    There is another use for these. Emulation machine. You can emulate PS3 and XBox 360 in these things. Plus Wii U and Switch. Just OC the CPU as far as it goes and underclock the GPU to give you more headroom on the CPU and you are good to go.

So far it has been a pretty spanking deal with the 1070 I got for free from a friend when it broke and I fixed it! I got my chip to OC to about 4.625 Ghz at stock voltages so it has been a substantial chip, I beat a lot of 11th gen intel offerings in benchmarks. I am looking to upgrade my GPU now and am sorta perusing for a good deal on a 6700xt or 6800.

    I have a 5600G 32gb ram Asus ROG STRIX 550F motherboard running Linux as my new gaming rig and it works really well but I did have a problem with the computer totally freezing up in one game a while ago
    I looked in the logg files to see what the last thing it did was before it hanged
    there was a error message that said out of graphics memory
    it turned out that my 5600 G only used 1 Gb of graphics memory so I googled how to fix it and dedicate more memory in the bios
    it is now using 8 gb of ram for the graphics and the difference is enormous
    and it is now running really stable

  • @capsulate8642
    @capsulate8642 Год назад

    I bought a 5700g at launch, then returned it just in time to buy one at Microcenter for $300 a month later. For that, it held up as an alternative to paying over $130 for a GT 1030 or something similar until prices crashed and I got a 1070 for $75. Now, the CPU is great and the iGPU runs one my CRT monitor and handles most basic apps handily.
    Even ignoring the iGPU, there's not really a competitive 8-core for the $150 that you can buy one for, so the only real sticking point is the PCIE 3.0 limitation.

  • @hassosigbjoernson5738

    Great little APU! I also would go for the 5600G which should be perfect for older games like Tomb Raider, Bioshock Infinite, Minecraft and AC Unity!
    And even when paired with a midrange GPU like a RX 6600 or even 6700 XT there is no CPU bottleneck according to tests Tim and Steve from Hardware Unboxed did run (Ryzen 3600).
    Could also be a great deal with a used OEM PC (like HP Pavilion) from 2020, 2021 which where often striped of their GPU during pandemic.
    For pairing with a discrete GPU I would prefer the none X models more, like Ryzen 5600.
    But at the beginning of 2022 I also went for a Ryzen 2600 which came with a GTX 1050 Ti which is now upgraded to a 130 bucks RX 5700 (XT). Great performance for below 450 € with everything.

    Not really seeing why I would want to upgrade to AM5, or pay a fortune for the latest AAA titles, though I may invest in Cyberpunk in the future if it's really cheap, or free.

    @bulutcagdas1071 Год назад

    Still pretty useful for other things. For example if you have a Freesync monitor with only an HDMI port and you have an Nvidia GPU, you can plug the monitor into the motherboard to allow the APU to control the Freesync function while the Nvidia card handles the rendering.

I'm not a serious gamer so, PCIe gen is not of great importance to me. *_BUT!!_* . . if I get a 5700X, I know my mind won't rest until I get a PCIe 4.0 mobo. If I get a 5700G, I know I won't bother to upgrade my mobo. I'd just wait til Zen5 comes out and see where things stand. If I get the 5700X and a 500 series chipset mobo . . . then maybe I should just get onto AM5 now. Decisions decisions. Thanks for the 'timely' revisit.
