I used my 5700G for over a year until finally liking the price of a $329 MSI RX6600XT and installing it. It didn't really impress with numbers in Cinebench but with Passmark it tore it up in the 3D mark numbers. It went from 3224 to13294 and watching the difference was amazing. The jet planes used to fly around like bi-planes with the APU only and with the new MSI they now fly like Jets. The floating spinning island trees used to stutter and flicker but now they spin like tops that I can't even recognize. A world of difference between an APU and a GPU. They 5700G saved me a ton of money and really did the job for a year but it's time to jump into the game a get a graphics card and take advantage of the full capability of your computer.
having good redundant video, in the event the graphics card needs serviced, or loaned out can be a life saver. (not to mention as a troubleshooting tool.
I'm planning to have a build similar to yours but with a 5600G (only have a budget for that). Do you think it is okay pairing the RX6600XT with 5600G? or would it bottleneck?
this is exactly my scenario. I sell RX 5700 for 750 euros and buy R7 5700G for 335 euros. Now i wait for RX 7000 series. This APU gives mi great numbers in contrast R5 2600.
I like the 5600G because at $120, I can put more money towards a better GPU. though its not a 5600X or 5800, It's no slouch, and will get you by, until you upgrade. When that happens, I would be happy to keep an extra 5600G in my spare parts bin.
my theory, beef up that GPU as early as you can. It's always easier/cheaper to upgrade the CPU later. (not to mention, I hope the graphics card out lives the CPU/Mother-Board combo. Look at me, I'm still running a 980ti)
You know what else? It's a-shame I can't do much with my 780ti, and though it is long in the tooth, it still does bite. I would be thrilled to use it for 1080p and less.
@@mrljgibson I liked the 5600g so much I updated my old X370 board, and got one for it. Eventually when I get a better card (New computer no card yet, old computerX370 with the GTX 980ti) I will upgrade to a 5700x or 5800, but in the meantime, no buyer's remorse from me.
I want to share another excellent use case for the APU. Especially the 5600G. Just upgraded my son's APU from 2200G to 5600G. His PC is a small slim desktop casing (smaller than the one in your video) with one of those small PSU inside (don't know what you call this form factor but it's like really small, smaller than a SFX PSU) and it only rated at 300W. Previously using the 2200G to run Switch emulator RyujinX...was terrible...frame rates hover around 15fps to 25fps tops for Octopath traveller 2. It even lags mad in the world map accessed from the menu which is basically a sort of 2D map but perhaps rendered in 3D. Basically, it runs worse than a real Switch and just horrible. After upgrading to 5600G, it was night and day...can say there is like > 100% improvement. Gameplay frame rates hovers around 40-45fps, drops to above 30fps at most during some battle scene. The world map which lags like mad previously now a buttery smooth 55fps. Almost comparable to my RTX3060 system at 60fps with a 5600X. In short, it now actually performs better than a real Switch!!!(Original Switch version locked at 30fps). It's an excellent upgrade for my purpose. I think the 5700G does not offer the same value as it's way too expensive and offers only a few frames extra as shown in most gaming benchmark tests. Hence, both me and my son are very happy with the 5600G. :)
I opted for a ryzon 5 5600g paired with an rtx 3060 12gb on an x570 motherboard using three m.2 2tb nvme drives so if anything goes wrong with my rtx 3060 i still have a functioning pc something you should think about the minimal decrease in performance is offset by the backup potential.
For some reason EVERYBODY seems to forget that some of us are building SERVERS and are not gaming with an APU ! How do these APU's do with transcoding on a MEDIA SERVER ? ANYBODY ?
Im getting to be an old man and my gaming days are basically behind me. The system I am building with the 5700G to replace my ailing 12yr old i5 will be inheriting my XFX RX580 8g. If and when the gpu dies? I can get by with the integrated graphics just fine.
I just bought the 5700G for $170.00. It's an insane value for that price, you get the APU if you need it, and it's still a 4.6ghz 8-core if you don't. If you buy one just be sure you can control the overclocks from the motherboard bios. The GPU runs at 2000mhz by default which is low, but every test shows that it's stable at 2400mhz and dramatically improves your performance. It also helps to have fast ram, 4000/CL16 or faster is recommended.
Hello, I'm not really familiar on how to build, maybe planning to do some changes on my pc. May I know if this will work: Ryzen 7 5700g Corsair CS 750W MSI B550M then will follow this: RTX 3060 TI Planning to do some games like Valorant and Dota 2, doing some basic video editing on capcut. Mostly multiple office apps are open simultaneously.
Yep. That would be perfectly fine for that kind of stuff. And adding a dedicated GPU later will open up tons of options for games and increased graphics settings
@@DannysTechChannel alright! Not sure if I'm making the right decision. My current pc is this: i5, 16gb ram, 750 ti. I was told that in order for me to change my processor, I need to change the motherboard and power supply as well. But I can still use the RAM and graphics card until I buy the 3060 ti. Am I on the right path?
Depends what ram. The 5700G needs DDR4. If that’s what you have then yes, you can reuse it. And the GPU can be reused but with the 5700G, you don’t really need it.
I'm wondering if you could help me out. I have the 5600 and I'm trying to maximize my computer for music production but need help with settings because something seems wrong right now
I am about to build my second time ever DIY PC. this is a home office PC, no gaming just normal use and casual basic video editing. I have a brand new, never used AMD Ryzen 2400G lying around, but came upon a great offer of Ryzen 5600G. My question - does it make sense to buy the newer CPU and will I feel a big difference between the two?
Yes you would. The extra cores/threads will help when rendering time of your videos, the faster APU graphics will be a plus, and the increased clock speed will help with overall performance. Your PC will thank you
Might keep you going with the newer CPU, though I would look at getting faster memory and a eventually upgrade to a GPU, though of course you can do that gradually as you find the deals instead of being forced to, which is the great thing about the AMD APU.
Best performance? or best Gaming Performance in this pricerange? Don't forget that with the Non-G processors you'd still need to factor in the price of a GPU. Even at $280 these processors can still adequitely game at 1080p 30+ fps with the help of FSR. You're showing Gaming Benchmarks (and also Performance) but keep in mind that these have iGPU's for a reason.
Man y'all are funny. Y'all meaning gurus on RU-vid. Everyone's a mega gamer snob. Lol. Meant in the nicest way. So, I'm from old school of gaming. I had the ISDN internet connection in the mid 90s and it was the fastest for residential and $150. Playing Quake online. Unreal tournament. I was there for Half Life in it's heyday and also consoles a lot. These days though, my music is most important..I play metal guitar. So I prioritize Music Production. But...I still have to have capable gaming. I've had a super fast OS M.2 NVME, 32GB ram and the Ryzen 5 4600G. It runs all the games I wanna play. And very well! No I'm not playing the latest titles cos I've been out of the loop with gaming. My point of all this is, I can't be a rare dude here. Tons of dudes would do great with the Ryzen 5 5600G or 5700G. But y'all talk like no one would want to use the APUs . Lol
@DannysTechChannel a question for you Danny since I been looking at a lot of comparisions between those 2 and cant decide.... I would run it with Rx 580 8 gigs, and I know this is more budget apu but is 5600g better in this case?
I want to buy a 5700g to edit 4K on Pr and Ae. Will be installing 64gb 3200mhz ram with 2x NVME for OS and scratch disks. I currently use just an i3 6100 and it is performing ok......not bad. All my projects are 2-3 minutes length only, 4k, with about 20-30 clips on the time line and some simple grading on each of the clips. Few clips will have some effects applied. Will the 5700g outperform my i3 6100. Bec currently Ae and Pr say my iGPU is incompatible and should i still continue. I give ok and yet get good performance except it hangs at times. I just want better timeline performance. Later ill buy a mid end GPU and pair it this processor. But for a year or so ill have to work without a DGPU.
When my editing PC broke a few years ago I was using a 3400G with only 16GB of Ram to editing while I waited for the parts to fix my PC. It was not a fun experience and I only film in 1080p. I couldn’t imagine the demand 4K would put on the system. The thing I noticed bogs down the timeline is when a ton of effects get put into it at the same time. Will the 5600G or 5700G work with Adobe, yes. Which should you use? I’d say if you can afford the 8 core, go for it. It will only improve your experience. And yes, it will be better than your i3
@@DannysTechChannel Based on what your saying....i wonder how my i3 is cutting thru 4K footage without proxies like butter (2x 4k streams-1/4 res playback). Its a shit system config i know. With 16gb ram. NVME + SSD + SSD + HDD backup drive. Today morning i did an Ae project of 15 secs with multiple 4K raw videos used with blending modes and lots of text animation and fx. It rendered the 15 secs film in 15 to 20 secs. WTF now im worried if i should really upgrade. Only thing while working on Ae 4-5 times in a day it will suddenly stop. I have to restart Ae. Thats why i wanna upgrade.
Do you think it is worth to update a Ryzen 5 5600g with a Ryzen 7 5700g or a Ryzen 7 5700x? The use of the computer is for ocasional Gaming, work, video conversion and ocasional edition
For many games you could still get away with a fast quad core, dual core is probably pushing it nowadays. People were still running the Q6600 for many years, I still have one with a GTX 660 2GB card which runs Crysis extremely well on maximum settings. I run a 2200g which I'm about to upgrade, I was running that with an RX 580 8GB, but I'm about to upgrade the GPU and am currently running the 2200g on its own mainly as a media player and normal games machine.
@@mrljgibson well I was wanting PS3 emulation, and was thinking the 5700G would be better because I have read that emulator likes cores, it will have a GPU but that will come later.
@@DannysTechChannel > Yes we accept he should buy a GPU......(cant run just the GPU on a motherboard right so which processor among these 2 ?) but you still didnt answer his main question. Which of these 2 will be able to edit 4K 200mbps footage with smooth timeline performance ?
@@DannysTechChannel So you'll use a DGPU. No processor. God what an IQ. We are asking that if we went with a 5700g and added a DGPU (happy ?) then how does one of these processors fare. You keep on saying ill go with a DGPU DGPU....Only your DGPU aint worth squat without a proc3essor too right.....so in that scenario which processor. Oh god i hope you understand what we are saying.
Ok. We’ll if you planned on using a dedicated GPU anyway, there are tons of better options for the CPU then the G series ones I have here. I’d go with a 5600 or 5700x since they have PCI 4.0 capability. AND the 5700x is less than $200 now. I’m still new with editing so I don’t really try making recommendations on that but since you asked, go with the 5700G.
@DannysTechChannel Bro which is better Ryzen 5 5600G or Ryzen 7 5700G in terms of performance and price ( The purpose of my pc is for daily use and some casual games)
I have to upgrade a ryzen 3 5300g and my mobo erica 6 will only support 5300g 5600g and 5700g thats another scenario where you would be stuck using only these cpu s
A brand new 5700G is $170.00, and you can easily overclock the GPU to 2400mhz in your BIOS. I highly doubt you are getting a 5600G and an RX580 for $170.00. The 5600G alone is $128.00, which leaves you $40.00 for the RX580. Are you dumpster diving?
Gpu's are too expensive here i can make a goos budget pc with that like mid quality gpu is around 10 15k here but i can make good apu pc with just 7 8k total
The great majority of people who use computers don't do gaming and don't want to double the price of their computer to buy an overpriced GPU that they probably can't find to buy anyway. We want something to run a web browser, run a spreadsheet, play a youtube video, things like that. 5600G and 5700G may have been able to fill that role but they are being phased out in favor of 7000 series that can't do it, and my understanding is that the video capabilities built into latest Intel chips can't do it either. Even the laptop I bought 2 years ago has better internal graphics than any current CPU made by Intel or AMD.
@@patlotpotlot6154 u will hv to wait for meteor lake then 14th gen with the new socket,but it's not going to be powerful tho Maybe only as good as gtx1650 at best
This is probably aimed at people upgrading their AMD systems, as replacing the motherboard is going to up the cost for the intel, but if you have ever had the GPU fail when fault finding the GPU an APU is a definite boon.
