'Intel sucks AMD is better'

Reviewed in Australia on 30 May 2020

Size Name: Processor OnlyStyle Name: ProcessorVerified Purchase

Previously owned a intel core i7-9700k and compared with the ryzen 5 3600 its the best bang for your buck. Did a comparison on the two chips and surprisingly I was more comfortable with the ryzen 5 3600 in my system. For $300+ less for a ryzen 5 3600, I definitely will be switching to AMD and purchasing their future cpus.

It's no brainer

It's been proven over and over that this is the best choice out there for a gaming & streaming system. Really happy with the performance it delivers. No overheating and with some fan curve tweaks you can achieve a silent system on everyday applications with stock fan. Even on full speed, its not very noticeable.
If you're doing heavy OC, would be worth investing on an aio or good quality air cooler.

Amazon AU shipment has been very fast and packaging is more than adequate.

Brought my system back to Life!

Not the cheapest CPU out there, but it's worth it when you have a weak setup to begin with. My i7-3770 and GTX 1060 6GB was just not really talking and once I upgraded to DDR4 with the Ryzen 5 3600, all my games suddenly worked on Ultra settings at a clean 60fps across the board! Please note, I bought 16GB ram to go with this, your experience may differ.

Amazing Budget AM4 Option

Reviewed in Australia on 30 December 2020

Size Name: Processor OnlyStyle Name: Ryzen 3 3100Verified Purchase

An amazing budget processor for anyone looking to make a mid-range gaming machine with an extremely flexible platform for upgradeability. Replaced a friends aging intel i5 processor with this and the extra threads allow him to do way more with his system. Pair this with a decent b450/550 motherboard and you're pretty much set for a capable system in the present and room to move up to a high core/IPC Ryzen CPU in the future.

Powerful low cost processor

Reviewed in Australia on 9 June 2021

Size Name: Processor OnlyStyle Name: ProcessorVerified Purchase

I did some research and settled on this unit for a kinda new build (couple of old donar parts). I have it paired with a Asus tuf gaming b550 plus motherboard. I am extremely happy with the performance of the unit.
The cooler screws directly onto the board, so you may need to remove the pre installed clips on the motherboard first, took me way to long to work this out. As always take your time to ensure you mount the CPU correctly so you dont damage the pins.

Got this for my Dad for Christmas (+new Ryzen ready motherboard) and he's been very pleased with how much faster his computer is running everything. Simple install process, and the stock cooler works great.

Upgraded my G4560 that i bought three years ago and this CPU is a beast and can handle anything that i throw at it. Superb value for money and better than Intel's core i3/i5 starting budget line up as you can OC this CPU and is compatible with B450/B550.

great little CPU, however under full load it gets a bit hotter than I'd like so I will likely upgrade to cooler. Thankfully heaps of 2nd hand wraith spire coolers available for cheap!

THIS CPU IS SO BAD

I don't even know if it's on? It's too quiet. And it's making my room freeze. I need to wear a Parka when I turn my PC on. Also my PC is now so fast I can't even read loading screens. What a piece of garbage.

One of the best and highest rated gaming processor from AMD. Highly recommended.

Reviewed in India on 12 January 2020

Size Name: Processor OnlyStyle Name: ProcessorVerified Purchase

This Processor is lightening fast. Absolutely one of the best in the market and faster than most any other processor. Totally brilliant and one of the best in the market for high end gaming. This is for a gaming rig I hooked up for my kids. It was long overdue.

I am using a Asus TUF Gaming X570-PLUS motherboard with this AMD Ryzen-5 3600 MHz 6-Core processor with a Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM. My graphics card is ASUS Radeon RX 580 8GB Dual-Fan OC Edition GDDR5. The PSU is Corsair RM650. I'm using two hard disks in this. The booting is Western Digital WD Blue SSD 250 GB SATA III and the bulk storage is a standard 1 TB Seagate Baracuda as the secondary. All this is housed in a Corsair Carbide Series CC-9011050-WW cabinet. I'm using Samsung 27 inch Curved LED Backlit Computer Monitor and Redgear Pro Series Wired Gamepad. The keyboard mouse combo is Redgear Manta MT21 Gaming Keyboard. The sound is from F&D F-203G 2.1 Channel Multimedia Speakers System. Everything is bought here on Amazon within days of each other and it is perfectly matched.

I recommend this processor and whole setup to anyone interested in building a top-of-the-line gaming computer that will not be outdated anytime soon.

Highly recommended.

Un procesador multihilo fenomenal para jugar/stremear

Reviewed in Spain on 8 November 2019

Size Name: Processor OnlyStyle Name: ProcessorVerified Purchase

Compre el procesador para una build de los siguientes componentes:
Motherboard: MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max
DRAM: Corsair LP 16 GB DDR4 3600
Tarjeta Grafica: Saphire Nitro+ RX 5700 XT
SSD: Samsung EVO 850 M.2 500Gb
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2Tb Desktop 3.5in 6gb/s
Disipador: Cooler Master Hyper 212 (para zocalo AM4)
Fuente de Alimentacion: Corsair CX750 (Mejorable no money )

Mi experiencia ha sido increiblemente buena, en mi set up me tira todos los juegos en ultra y a la vez stremeando con el OBS con rendimiento muy bueno sin perdida de rendimiento.
Teniendo un maximo delos cercanos 4.2 GHz para juegos de gran demanda mientras stremeo.
No dude nada en comprar el disipador externo ya que sabia que el de serie podria quedarse corto ya que tienden a tener temperaturas altas, pero eso no quita que el de serie cumpla con su funcion. Yo pense para la salud del procesador en un futuro y decidi realizar ese gasto extra incluso al disipador meterle un segundo ventilador.
En general una maravilla que sin duda recomiendo a quien vayan a realizar una build nueva de PC. Quizas como otras personas sugerian si vienen de una 2a gen, quizas no sale tan rentable por unos fps mas, quizas deben tirar un poco mas alto quizas 3700 para contar con mas años de rendimiento optimo.
Si os ha ayudado esta opinion me ayudaria mucho que me dejarais un voto útil. Gracias!

[Acheté en reconditionné]

J'avais acheté initialement le 2600X pour 135€ puis je suis tombé sur ce Ryzen 5 3600 sur Amazon Warehouse pour à peine quelques dixaines d'euros de plus. J'ai donc renvoyé mon 2600X (20/25% de performance en plus pour le 3600).
Quasiment aucune différence avec sa version "X".

Point très agréable, j'ai monté un ventirad Pure Rock dessus et même en jeu (70 degrés en pic) il est complètement inaudible! c'est un réel plaisir
Je tourne à 100/120 FPS sur Warzone avec la config ci dessous
N'hésitez pas si il est à un bon prix !

Ma config:
- Carte graphique ASUS DUAL GTX 1660S
- Carte mère ASUS TUF B450M-PLUS GAMING
- Processeur AMD Ryzen 5 3600
- RAM Corsair Vengeance LPX 16Go (2x8Go) DDR4 3000MHz
- SSD CORSAIR Force MP510 240 GB NVMe
- Alimentation Corsair TX550M

One of the best Budget CPU for Gaming and Productivity

Hey Friends
Firstly I ordered Ryzen 3 3300X from Amazon in May 2020 for Rs.11200, but my order was cancelled due to transport issues because of COVID-19 and it was out of stock for almost 2 months. Last week I ordered it again for Rs. 12600 and received it yesterday. So now it is bit overpriced.

I am a Youtuber (Budget PC Gamers) and adding this new Ryzen 3 3300X to my channel for benchmakrs. I already own Ryzen 5 3500, GTX 1650 Super, RX 570 4GB and Ryzen 3 1300X.

On YouTube search for budgetpcgamers

Now about performance of Ryzen 3 3300X and comparing It with my Ryzen 5 3500
For testing I Used Ryzen 3 3300X @4.4 Ghz and Ryzen 5 3500 @4.2 GHz
GPU : Nvidia GTX 1650 Super.
Motherboard : MSI B450M PRO VDH
RAM : 2X8 GB DDR4 3000 MHz RAM
For cooling I used Cooler Master Hyper H410R
In Cinebench Ryzen 3 3300X @4.4 Ghz Scored 510 Pts in Single Core and 2678 Pts in Multicore
And Ryzen 5 3500 @4.2 Ghz Scored 482 PTs for single core and 2763 Points for Multicore
In Handbrake for Compressing 1.7gb 1080p/60fps video to 1080p/30fps using fast preset
Ryzen 3 3300X @4.4Ghz took 147 seconds and ryzen 5 3500 @4.2GHz took 149 seconds. So the performance of both CPUs is almost same in Handbrake
In Camtasia 2019 for rendering 3 minute 1080p / 60 fps video Ryzen 3 3300X @4.4 Ghz took 315 Seconds and Ryzen 5 3500 @4.2 Ghz took 314 Seconds. Again the performance is almost same for both CPUs.

Temperature:
While using Handbrake Ryzen 3 3300X at 4.4 Ghz was hitting 90 Degrees and Ryzen 5 3500 @4.2 Ghz remained below 85 Degrees.
For Gaming Performance please see pictures Above. I benchmarked all games at 1080p / High Settings
I will update this review in future for more benchmarks and details.
