FYI /notes / thoughts
New Intel CPUs drop soon so expect AMD prices to continue some downwards pressure.
- I'm planning a 5600x build in the new year.
Next gen AMD CPUs are expected late 2022.
Between now and then there may be an interim zen 3 / 5x000+ release with extra cache 3D ram stack in response to the new Intel CPUs.
The 8 core 5800G is about the same speed as the iGPU less 6 core 5600x for heavily multi threaded compute tasks due to less cache, but obviously if you are doing light gaming or desktop use a much better value proposition in this era of GPU shortages.

You register then Newegg says you were chosen to purchase a still overpriced GPU and a motherboard that's been marked up 200% minimum.

Actually haven't even tried. Good of AMD to put out these processors but where are their GPUs???
To get the best performance out of these:
Get 2 sticks of ram(dual channel) at 4400mhz cl18 or better
Most of the igpu's on these will overclock to between 2300-2400 easily
Low speed ram with high latency with the stock igpu speed will cripple the onboard graphics
The cpu is so much more powerful than the gpu that I found no reason to overclock it.
Hope this helps
For me the 5700g is the perfect jack of all trades cpu out now
Has the most powerful igpu to date.
Nearly the same single thread performance as a 5600x but with 8 cores instead of 6
Multi thread performance is in between the 5600x and the 5800x
5700g is 65 watts vs 5800x being 105 watts
Comes with a cooler 5800x doesnt
Just sold my rx 550 because my 5700g is more powerful.
Currently at the microcenter near me:
5600x-$259.99
5700g-$299.00
5800x-$349.00
Really liking these price drops.
5700g = 24642
5800x = 25883
3700x = 22782
For most you are not giving up much at all compared to a 5800x.

I work (well, before working from home because of COVID) about 5 minutes away from MicroCenter.
It was heaven being able to quickly go and grab stuff from them over lunch!
Or only $30 more if you couple it with a motherboard.
Personally id wait for Alder Lake 12th gen in a month, the 12600k will be around $260-$300, but have 5800x levels of CPU performance, have an IGP (worse IGP than these APUs), and then pair it with a GPU when you find one.
What will the wattage be? Will it be a 65 watt part like the non k series, or 125 watts? I just bought an 11500 and it has the hd 750 graphics and is a 65 watr part.

The 12600k will be 125w and they're also adding a low power one that I believe is 65w.
Both will have 770hd graphics.
