Ryzen 5 9600X

The Ryzen 5 9600X emerges as the new mid-ranger from AMD's lineup, but not as the ideal one. It shows great single-core performance numbers and supports AVX-512 but is limited heavily by reduced power targets and clock speeds. This does mean that power and thermal efficiency are great, but gaming performance numbers have barely improved over the last gen, and AMD continues to trail Intel in multi-threaded performance.

I tested both the AMD Ryzen 9600X and the 9700X, and AMD has gone too far with the power limits - the CPUs barely outperform their own predecessors, which is very dissappointing.

We have carefully tested over 100 coolers to select our top picks for the Ryzen 5 9600X, taking into account their thermal performance, build quality, noise levels, and pricing.

The prices of AMD Ryzen 9000 CPUs have been officially confirmed through online retailers, and they're going for a killing price.

A Canadian retailer shows that the Ryzen 9000 lineup will cost nearly the same as its predecessor at release.

The Geekbench scores of the upcoming Ryzen 7 9700X and Ryzen 5 9600X show impressive results from AMD's new Zen 5-based processors.

According to the leaked screenshot result the AIDA64 shows us that the Ryzen 5 9600X is 2x faster than the Ryzen 5 7600X.
