I paid $270 for the 5700G in December 2021. Wew, dat feel.

Just messing with PCPartPicker, I think it would cost almost $300 to make an APU-only build around this $80 5600G and the cheapest parts. That can go down if you hit the used market, or reuse old parts you have. It might be better to get some 7735HS mini PC instead, or OEM refurbs that come with a graphics card.

So the best case is you upgrade an old AM4 system you already have with this.

It would be pretty good. Obviously the 5600X/5700X/etc. would be better, but this price is hard to ignore.

You actually get an increase of "L3 cache per core" going from R5 2600 to this, since the R5 2600 split its 16 MB of L3 cache into two CCXs.

Make sure you can update the BIOS to support the 5600G.

Wow, great price, this CPU has been in my sights for some time now. I know this is probably on its way out giving that new cpus are probably coming. For a non gamer like me, and at this price, I think this is perfect. Now,...onto getting rid of my 3300X Smilie

New CPUs already came: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tem...000_Series

What's interesting is that there are rumors of a 5600X3D coming to AM4. But it could end up being OEM-only even if it is real.

Oh, I've been eyeing one at AliExpress for for some time. This is a good deal. Just wish itx/SFF isn't so grossly overpriced.

You already have the 2600? A better upgrade would be the 5600 and that can be with a higher end GPU 6800/6800XT.

NO. You already have a GPU, get a 5600 or 5600X. 5600G has half the L3 cache and doesn't support pcie 4.0.

BIOS has been updated via USB, I think it's an MSI thing? Either way, his board does support this cpu and he still has the 2600 if USB BIOS update doesn't work. Was able to snag one either way. Thanks!
