  • Let's compare the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 vs 3600, 5500 and 5600 in today's benchmarks. It launched with 6 cores and 12 threads, over a year ago at $129. For this price didn't really represent anything special, though it's now dropped to $79 with a cooler, and on aliexpress you can get it for $65 shipped to your door worldwide. So at these prices, does this CPU make sense? Let's run some gaming benchmark numbers at 1080p.

    Thank you! Picked one of these up for £50 for the general-use desktop I'm putting together. On a B450 MB with a PCIe 3.0 GPU, this thing is ideal. With CZcams running at 4K on one of the three monitors I'm using it with and Word open, this thing purrs along at 20 degrees all day long. I suspect 8 cores is overkill for this, but at this price it really doesn't matter.

    If you have a Micro Center nearby (in the US), you can get a new Ryzen 3600 for $75 plus $20 off a mobo, which makes a combo with an a520 $120 total. Really a shame that Micro Center doesn't have more locations.

      I always figured the 4500 ultimately lagged behind the (theoretical) PS5/XSX CPU specifically due to the core count (though I believe those run at 2.5 GHz while the base clock of this is 3.6 GHz)
      Same goes for the 6650 XT (which is the rig I use, which is alleged in the 9th gen punching range)

      @AdamsWorlds Před rokem

      @@ArtisChronicles yeah iir it was caused by the bios microcode not restricting how often the sensors can be probed. Stuff like iCue that monitors CPU temps and stuff would just hammer the CPU with requests for sensor data and cause the voltage to rocket. Oddly it mostly happened when you were viewing the cpu temps because the requests when viewing in the apps was more frequent than say way a process is running in the background that monitors to change a led colour or something. It was a real issue though. To test would be hard because when you were viewing it would look high but when not be low. Would need to install old bios, old iCue version, old windows build and physically probe the motherboard i guess.

      Combine this with 1050TI or a 1650 that are low power and don't need power connectors and you have the ultimate low power consumption/low temperature/high efficiency you can get that can still play games at 1080p.
      If you are a little more demanding and need some high settings in 1080p games then you can try the RX6600 that although it needs extra power from the power supply is probably the most efficient card that uses external power.
      In idle it is just 2-4W and even when fully pushed it barely goes over 100W.

      I built a similar one using a Aisurix rx 580 that I found in a return store for $8. Not the best card on the market but for the kids to play games in the TV room, it works great. Plus Aisurix is using rebadged Afox PCB's and GPU's and AFox is a very reputable brand in china. They sell legit GPU's, think of them as the PNY of China. Not the best brand out there, but they are known for backing up their products. Not that Aisurix has anything to do with that, it just makes me feel a bit better longevity wise. Not that I invested much in it, a few bucks and some thermal paste.

  • @shieldtablet942
    @shieldtablet942 Před rokem +1

    My experience is that this and the 5500 overheat because motherboards default to PBO on when you enable XMP. Go into settings and disable PBO and set a temperature limit. The CPU will clock a bit lower and will receive much lower voltage. It pumps a lot of voltage for those extra 25 or 50 MHz.
    Ryzen Master autotuner I have not tested thoroughly but is an option.
    I would not recommend it if you can go for the 5500, as zen 2 has a nasty vulnerability that means OS performance will be crushed. Apps by themselves will be fine (unless storage dependent) but win will be much slower. Bulldozer through Zen 2 cores are affected.

But I paid $80 for this used 1500X 2 years ago, so it's a pretty good deal to get the 4500 brand new for that or less. So now to see how much GPU I can get for the $150 I spent on my GTX970...seems like basically it's enough for a used RX5700 XT or $10 more can do a used RX6600 so either ought to work.

    The stock cooler that came with my R5-3600 was completely inadequate when stressing the CPU. Temps would go to mid 80's quickly and while AMD says it's OK...that's awful hot for something we expect to live a long life. Put a Scythe Mugen 5 rev.b with dual fans on it and the highest it'll get is about 63C @ 1.350V which I think will be just fine. And it's quiet unlike the AMD fan which was screaming all the time as it valiantly tried to control the temperature.

The broken 5600x functions normally with 0 indication of an issue which is why i ended up buying a new mobo.

    Here in my country (RO) the R5 3600 is available brand new and is slightly cheaper (no included cooler but I'd argue that gives you more flexibility), and IIRC the 4500 was equivalent at best to the R5 2600. In fact, in some scenarios it was worse than the 2600, probably due to the lower cache size. The R5 3600(X) has PCIe 4 support while the R5 2600(X) was the last to officially support Windows 7 (and runs natively on B450), whereas the Intel competition, the i3 12100 does better in games, leaving the R5 4500 in this no man's land where it doesn't really have any ace up its sleeve. It and its more capable brother the R5 5500 will probably be sold for a pittance in the future as they only really represent an upgrade from lower-end first gen Ryzen chips.
