Wrong. 5600g is not "significantly slower" than i5-12400 at all.
yeah I think he's getting his information from here > https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Com...vsm1553183
and here https://nanoreview.net/en/cpu-com...en-5-5600g

But BabyBubba shows us it's not true in all cases

No 2 benchmark sources will agree on anything, that's for sure. I guess the bigger picture is that the 5600G and 12400 are both aging midrange performance CPUs that are still doing well despite newer generations replacing them. I would expect similar performance from either. I use benchmarks when shopping to get an idea of what I'm getting before I ever take it for a test drive, and for that they generally do a good job. There's lots of money to be saved when you're not buying the latest and greatest, often without sacrificing much in performance.

Minis are taking a big part of market share from old school desktops, and I agree that they are plenty good enough for most casual users who won't ever crack the case open or want to upgrade. Their low power consumption is also a big plus. So yeah they're a great option for many, and CPU manufacturers have taken notice.

Yeah the minis are definitely taking over. But there are plenty of tasks where the extra horsepower of the larger machine is worthwhile. Like everything else…different strokes for different folks.

That mini market may actually be helping us desktop guys get better prices on used equipment. I've made some killer deals in the last couple of years because the used desktop market is so soft. Lots of supply and not much demand for non-gaming systems.

Just an update
My PC arrived in Fantastic condition on first boot it went straight to the desktop no setup needed added my wifi and started updating and downloading benchmark apps and testing.
Today the 310W PSU was delivered so I went ahead and did the upgrades
16gb Adata 3200mhz Ram
1660 Super and another 1 TB SSD loaded with Emulation games.
Ryujinx,Rpcs3 and CEMU run great, Xenia is having a hard time. I'll have to figure that out.
Xemu is also doing ok with just a couple quits to the desktop.

Overall a pretty fun project, the 1660S is working fine with the 310W PSU. Under full system load it's only pulling about 195W from the wall.

If your interested in adding a larger graphics card (Note: they must be under 10.5" in length) it breaks down like this for PSU's
500W
3070-6700XT-2070S or a RX5700

400W
2060- 2060S-3060-3060TI

300W
1660S or TI - Rx5500 - 1050TI

Thanks for the follow-up and data. I'm happy to hear that it's (mostly) working out well. I imagine that it's pretty fast for the money spent.

Yes sir it's Nice.. I just recommend this seller to a friend needing something newer, his current PC is from 2010. He tried to update his DDR3 ram (from 4gb to 16gb) and the bios won't recognize it.

I think he's gotten some good mileage out of it, but yeah modern upgrades are so cheap compared to the performance boost. There are a lot of corners of the net that I watch for computer deals...If you let me know what he wants and price range I might be able to find a similar deal for him. The guy you bought from has one similar to yours but with a R3 5300G for $255...not near as good a deal as yours was though, in my opinion.

Just saw a cool little Acer SFF with J4125 quad for like $65 shipped (or best offer) on eBay. Nothing fancy, but will pretty much run circles around anything from 2010 and has a lot of modern specs like M.2 and onboard 4K HDMI. Acer is still selling these refurbed for $100 with 2 year warranty. 8GB DDR4, 256GB NVMe SSD.

I have two used 5600g/5700g hp desktops similar to this, one victus 5700g with 32gb ram, 500w supply, and 6600xt video card and one called the hp gaming desktop with 16gb ram, 400w power supply, and rx5500 video card.

These are the price to performance leaders for cheap gaming desktops atm. I paid 450 for the used victus and 200 for the used hp gaming desktop.

The ones you don't have to upgrade the power supply on would be a better bargain if you can find them used, but if not one of these will do.

For the price you can find these, they can't be beaten as entry level gaming rigs.

If all you need is an office pc then they're actually probably overkill and you don't even need to spend this much.
