AMD Ryzen™ 5 7600X 6-Core, 12-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

Huge improvement over my 8600k.

This cpu is powerful for its price. It runs the games I need it too and never gets above 40% usage with my everyday tasks and games. My only complaint is when I do stress this cpu in testing stability, it throttles after reaching max temp. I use an AIO and I’m not sure if I bought a 360 instead of a 240 it would keep it cool. AMD says this is normal but I wonder about the longevity of it.

I went from a eight core 5800X AM4 cpu to this and really I cant say Ive noticed any difference. Its a low end budget cpu but it works well and is perfect for anyone wanting to jump to the AM5 platform for future upgradability.

This AMD 7600x was my first ever AMD cpu. Ive had a really killer experience so far and would strongly recommend it to anyone else thinking of a lower budget AMD desktop computer build in early 2023.

This processor is a very strong processor! Its quick and snappy but also got power to do the things that needs done. For gaming, it gives great performance over the AM4 CPU I had. Definitely worth the upgraded MB/CPU/RAM!

Goods:

Gets a little warm but that was to be expected. Runs everything I need like a champ and was a good value for me.

Over the past year, there have been plenty of problems and discussions with AM5 boards. I had no issues at all. I was going to get the Ryzen 5 5800x3d, but thats AM4, and I wanted to take a gamble on AM5. The 7600x is cheaper and runs plenty fast for me. At the time of this writing, Id venture to say that the 7600x is the best bang for the buck, though Intel prices have come down as well.

Annoyed I pulled the trigger on this and I cant even find a responsibly priced motherboard. Now you can pick up a 13600KF for $309, and its significantly more powerful. Personally Im thinking about just returning my 7600x and picking up the 13600k. AMD should be charging around $200-225 for this tops.

Upgraded from a i7 8700, and it was a much needed performance improvement. It does run quite a bit hotter than some older CPUs, but DONT BE ALARMED! The 7000 series are all built to operate at 95 degrees C, so anything under that is perfectly fine and normal. Regardless, the only time those temps were even approached was with a run of cinebench r23, so youll never reach temps that high during gaming or regular use.
