AMD Ryzen 7 5700X

We’re less drawn to the Ryzen 7 5700X for those who aren’t already invested in AM4. It’s certainly a great gaming CPU, but there’s no real advantage that would see me pick it over the 12700F. Outside of gaming, the 12700F is also a much more powerful CPU as those four E-cores work wonders for core-heavy productivity workloads.

It might be just a Ryzen 7 5800X3D with slower clocks, but you’re still getting great gaming performance for a lot less money. As an AM4 upgrade, it’s the sensible…

If this had launched as part of the original Zen 3 lineup it would have been a great mainstream CPU. Today though, there are simply better options out there.

The strongest competitor to the Ryzen 7 5700X is no doubt the Intel Alder Lake Core i5-12600K. While it technically only has six big cores and four E-cores, overall performance is really good in both gaming and apps, better than the Ryzen 7 5700X at a few dollars less. Intel’s platform cost is a bit higher, but I still feel like a lot of people will end up picking the Alder Lake configuration because AMD isn’t the clear winner in this matchup.

This grab bag of various tests finds the Ryzen 7 5700X exhibiting much the same performance trend as we’ve seen throughout this round of testing — after tuning, it is essentially the same as the Ryzen 7 5800X. That would be a bit more encouraging if, outside of decompression/compression and cryptography, the Core i5-12600K didn’t outperform both Ryzen 7 models in the majority of these workloads.

Whilst the 5700X stands up on it’s own, it brings little value over the 5600X in this day and age, and as we have mentioned before, it struggles to find it’s place in the market and feels somewhat unremarkable. It feels like it’s simply there to bridge a gap in the market, not be a serious contender.

With performance rivaling the Ryzen 7 5800X at a lower price, AMD’s Ryzen 7 5700X is arguably the best value in the Ryzen 7 5000 series, but it can’t quite stand up to Intel’s new “Alder Lake” processors.

AMD managed to get great value out of the Ryzen 7 5700X. Gaming performance is great, almost catching up the 12700K. The 299$ USD price tag makes it a much better value, especially when you consider the price of B550 boards with it.

AMD’s newly released Ryzen 7 5700X3D, while technically new, is not entirely so. What we have here is binned silicon that couldn’t be sold as a 5800X3D since it didn’t meet the clock specifications. But instead of throwing it away, AMD has cut it down…
