While we were super excited and impressed by the 2600X and 2700X, we found the 2600 and 2700 slightly less impressive, but still excellent values. For $30 more you are just paying AMD for a slight frequency boost, something you can do for free. While most...

As far as we are concerned, the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 is the most interesting CPU in the new Ryzen 2 series. By default, depending on the usage scenario, it is 5 to 10% slower than the more expensive 2600X, but with an overclock it is quite easy to match the p...
Great value, Huge multi-thread performance, Overclockable,
Slower single-core performance than Intel, Poor overclocking headroom,
It's the same old story. AMD's latest chips are great value for certain tasks but less so for others. You get masses of multi-thread performance, but single-thread and gaming performance trails Intel's rival processors a little...
Big step forward in performance compared to Ryzen 5 1600, Backward compatibility with previous-gen motherboards, Indium solder between die and heat spreader improves thermal transfer, Bundled cooler improves value proposition
Performance deficit compared to stock Ryzen 7 2700, Requires a higher-end thermal solution for serious overclocking, Only $20 cheaper than 95W Ryzen 5 2600X
AMD's Ryzen 5 2600 provides excellent performance in productivity applications and competitive frame rates in games. It's also an attractive choice for anyone building a PC in a compact case, given a 65W TDP. But if you're more interested in raw performan...
Abstract: It's the age-old question that has spurred endless debate: AMD or Intel? Today, that rivalry has reached new heights with AMD's Ryzen 2000 Series, often referred to by users (but not AMD) as "Ryzen 2," competing against Intel's 8th Gen "Coffee Lake" for d...

Abstract: Is there any reason to buy an Intel CPU now that the AMD Ryzen 2700 and 2600 are out? Or even reason to get the X variants (2700X & 2600X)? Lets benchmark them and find out! Want one? Amazon 2700: prourls.co/5u0q Amazon 2600: prourls.co/0gwh Products show...

Abstract: The AMD Ryzen 2 processor range launched with a pair of new X-series CPUs, offering the highest clock speeds and best performance. But wherever the 2700X and 2600X go so will follow the non-X variants. and so we have the impressive Ryzen 5 2600, the per...
Even without using fast memory, the Ryzen 5 2600 is quicker than the Ryzen 5 1600X in many tests and matches or betters the Core i5-8600K in multi-threaded tests too. The fact that it also beat the latter in the photo editing test and wasn't far behind in...

For the desktop PC gamer, the higher TDP X models are still the go-to for gaming and general performance though. They're a little faster, and a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. However, if heat and power are a big concern to you, and t...
