Great CPU for the price. Included wraith cooler keeps cpu temperature well within acceptable range.

Very pleased with the processor and the service received from Canada Computers as always. The processor is a good balance for me as it will not be used for gaming. I have always had good success with AMD products and this one is no exception.

I have yet to install this processor, however it meets all requirements for my mother's PC. It will be a good processor for basic browsing and video streaming.

The CPU is great, does what I wanted it for.

Excellent in-person service from the guys at the Vancouver-Broadway location, they answered all my questions regardless of how dumb they were and even took the time to discuss alternate CPU options to confirm that I did indeed want the APU and not go for a dedicated video card instead with a different CPU. Cheers!

I am more of a coder and not a gamer. Using linux on this CPU cuts 60-70% of system builds. I love it.

Great CPU for budget PC builders!

Reviewed by: Customer
This is a nice and speedy CPU and more than enough for the average user. Also the integrated graphics in this is a good option if you can't afford a dedicated GPU when you first build your PC. The IGPU won't be as good as dedicated for gaming but you can still play some games at pretty reasonable FPS. If you're not building a gaming PC and just building a all purpose PC, I think you will be more than happy with this CPU.

Excellent performance for price

Using this for an Unraid server build in 2023. Perfect mix of performance, price and power efficiency.

Good product

Reviewed by: Customer
The product probably would've worked if my mother board was working. I never hear any complaints about this CPU from my techy friends. I would recommend this CPU to people who are looking for affordable great CPUs.

Wow!!!!

Reviewed by: Customer
thats what i said when my computer came on after i upgraded to this processor. MAJOR IMPROVEMENT IN GRAPHICS. I could see the difference right away. I use some very heavy EXCEL files. With my old processor (3000G), I could go for a coffee break while the data in the excel file updated. With this 5600G, the file updates in SECONDS !!!!
Highly, highly recommended.

TIP: when upgrading processor, be careful ftpm and bitlocker.

It is impressive APU

Reviewed by: Customer
This is impressive APU. It is a good update from Ryzen 3400G. Out of the box, without tunning I got some good scores in C23 (11164 in multicore and 1436 in single core). CPU-Z (4856 multicore and 612 single core). Integrated graphics is also an update from 3400G because 3400G was limited to maximum 2GB of VRAM whereas 5600G can allocate up to 16GB VRAM. In addition, 5600G has curved optimizer feature that was not available for last generation of AMD APUs. APU will benefit from faster RAM so get at least 16GB of 3600Mhz RAM and make sure it is dual channel. I would suggest to get 3rd party cooling like from Noctua or BeQuiet! (I use Noctua).

Great APU

Reviewed by: Fors
I love this APU. The CPU itself is pretty good, not that much worse than the 5600x. 6c/12t is plenty for gaming and light-moderate streaming (at least right now). The GPU in it is also decent, can play esports and maybe some AAA games at low settings. It's better than a gt 1030, near the 1050/1050 ti I believe. PS: Try to pair this with 3600mhz ram!
A downside is the stock cooler, will keep it cool enough but it's on the slightly louder side. This is pretty fixable with some tweaking, though.
This is overall a great APU if you're a very casual gamer, planning to drop in a graphics card later or just want your system to run.
