Congrats, personally I said F it and started my 3800xt build.Got a shipping date for my 5950X.
27/11..

Super tuned and overclocked 5600X vs Intel 10600K, Intel gets trounced again in gaming:

Have there been any info on the new APUs?

That is what the Ryzen 4000s are?

Still Zen 2

Finally got my hands on a last-gen AMD cpu so that I can update my bios (new mobo, came with old bios) to support the 5000 series. If all goes according to plan, I'll have my new build fully operational this afternoon. Fingers crossed!

Well, mine is actually slightly OC’d (4,6Ghz, 1.25vc) and it is running at 45-50ºc, using a Noctua DH-15.
Btw, I noticed AC:V barely relies on CPU, but it drains your GPU

That's a pretty good temp for gaming, imo. I don't plan to OC mine (seems like the benefits are very minimal in the videos I've seen), but I'll have an Arctic Freezer 2 360mm on it. Looking forward to seeing the improvements I'll get in games like Total War: WH2 over the i7-4790k I have now.

So far, the 5800x has been a great pairing with my rtx3080. Played several games and had noticeable improvements over my i7 4790k (duh, I guess). Games are generally a lot smoother - high fps seems to be the same, but the lows and random stutters (likely frame drops) are much improved. Some older games there's just no helping, tho. GTA V still gives bizarro frame drops, while gpu/cpu utilization is relatively low. Eh, what can you do. Either way, very happy with my purchase. Also, it runs pretty cool during gaming - usually in the 40s and 50s *C. Now if I could just get my ram to run at decent timings....
Edit: Also, with the auto-OC feature enabled in the Ryzen Master software, it consistently boosts to 4.95 ghz while doing cpu intensive tasks. Color me impressed!

Damn! Amd auto-OC is finally working as promised.
Sucks to zen2 users like me, got snooked about the 4.7ghz bluff.
zen2 simply is wip.
zen3 is the real amd deal.

Asrock just released Bioses for running 5000 series CPUs on B450 motherboards;

X470 should follow next week

Knowing ASrock's bios QA - not so nice.

Gigabyte/Aorus also released some new BIOS, but sadly, from what I understand, it's in beta (since there is a letter after the version number)?
screenshot taken on B550 Aorus Elite website - I'm currently on F10 and not sure if it's safe to upgrade the bios to these, seemingly, beta ones.

You probably won't be able to buy one of these until next year. Or if you got the money to burn, get finessed by a scalper. Prices are only gonna get higher with Christmas coming.Still can’t buy a 5950

Yep, Z3 has higher IPC than any Intel chip released so far and in some games it shows.

In most games intel still performs better.

Holy crap, all this time I thought none of the website I looked at had any 5600 in stock... and thanks to Armorian's posts above I found out it's still "only" a Ryzen 5 lol, no wonder I couldn't see any when I filtered to Ryzen 7 and 9, I feel super dumb now (but it makes some choices for my soon-to-be next build much easier).
Now I need to find out which kind of cooler would be enough for one...

So I bumped this thread to post some of my recent observations. In some new games Zen 3 is just dominating competition
But seeing almost no difference between 6 and 12 core cpus shows that game engines are still shit in multithreading
how accruate are these tests, or how are they tested?
kinda insane going from ryzen 3000 to 5000 had such a big leap, like mid gen gpu refresh.

5600x comes with the cooler, it should be a ought and you can always use precision boos overdrive 2 to undervolt it (like i did). And based on the charts for now 6 core and CPUs are top notch, maybe some years from now 8 cores will be needed but by that time we will have zen 5 or something...

I personally tested jump from 3600 to 5600x and it was more than 20% in CPU heavy scene in Jedi Fallen Order (and that 3600 was after OC). This is not suprising: IPC, clock and latency differences make up this performance uplift

Their GPU tests are pretty much ~other outlests so they look ok, they're not Nvidia or AMD fanboys like some sites...
This is the only benchmarking site (that I'm aware of) that tests CPUs in every game, other places just test new CPUs in the same sample of games so we don't really know how ~90% of titles work on Intel and AMD cpus. Results are suprising even for me.
GameGPU benchmarks are definitely interpolated somehow, no way they test +30 different CPUs with +30 different GPUs in three different resolutions with RT Off/On, the test matrix is simply too big.

Most recent CPU review on Techpowerup: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/intel-core-i7-11700kf/17.html
On games that rely on single thread performance yes, the jump from Zen 2 to Zen 3 was that big.

I just for a 5800X for $440CAD (about $350USD)... It's going to replace my old and trusty 1700, from the OG Ryzen launch! I Can't wait to have an hour to install it!
