I bought this on sale for $80 and it replaced my r5 1600x and the performance jump was great. I mostly did it so I could use more CPU intensive programs. Works well without getting hot when using am air cooler.

Nice budget cpuDoesn’t get to high in temperaturesRuns nice in Gpu heavy games not so much in CPU heavy gamesThis works with AM4 supportEasy to install but do be warned you could get locked out of system when upgrading CPU’s but a quick tutorial could help fix that issueComes with additional items like a cpu fan and thermal paste already applied on the cpu fan.

I run an esports program at the school I work for. Saddly like many school clubs the staff in chachas to go out of pocket for many things. When we do builds this has been my go to CPU for a few years, cost effective and runs most of games very well.

I’m using this CPU for my dedicated streaming PC, and it works fabulously. The only regret I have is switching from Intel to AMD, as I faced some Windows installation issues during setup. However, once everything was sorted, this CPU has been absolutely fantastic. It delivers great performance and handles streaming seamlessly!

I found myself in need of upgrading a Core i5 2500K to allow my daughter to play Fortnite with my son and I. I paired this Ryzen 5 4500 with a Gigabyte B450M DS3H WIFI board and 16GB of TForce DDR4, and completed the build with an Antec 520W power supply, a 500GB SSD, and a Radeon RX 6600 that I had sitting in the parts bin.I already had Windows 11 installed on the drive and it booted right up. I installed the appropriate drivers and then used CPU-z to run a stress test. Under 100% load using the included Wraith Stealth cooler, the max temp I saw was 85C. Since I run a Ryzen 9 7900x on my main rig, I am more than comfortable with Ryzen's ability to handle heat, and 85C is perfectly acceptable in my book. Despite running hot, the fan was nice and quiet the entire time. This was under stock settings - no tuning to the fan curve. During the stress test, the max wattage use by the CPU was right around 58. Right now while idling it is pulling 10 watts and sitting at 40C.The only game I have installed right now is Fortnite. On Epic presets, 1080p, using the RX 6600, I was getting 40-55 FPS (which I consider perfectly playable on a budget-level system). On High presets I consistently pulled 60-70 FPS. I would get a little stuttering here and there, which I suspect is memory-bandwidth-related. In all fairness I haven't even opened the BIOS to tune any settings. GPU usage was at 100% and CPU was at maybe 75%-80%. I consider that a pretty efficient pairing, though you could possibly bump up to something like a 6750 XT to get a little more performance without the CPU becoming a bottleneck. In any case, this is sufficient performance for 1080p gaming on most modern titles running at higher settings (without raytracing of course). I'll be doing some additional benchmarks as I finish up the 100+GB downloads, and if there are any changes to my opinion I'll update this review.There are definitely faster processors, some of which don't cost a whole lot more than this. But since my goal was to build a viable system that paired well with my existing hardware, this really hit the sweet spot in terms of price and performance.

its pretty good for what you get at 4000 series 6-Core, 12-Thread at this price point this lil guy is powerful compare to other Ryzen 5 Processors its $79.99 now but you can find this one cheaper when on sale.

Es sin duda un procesador bastante bueno y tiene mucha calidad en sus componentes, créeme vale la pena gastar un poquito más en ryzen 5 en vez de un 3, cabe señalar que esté no incluye gráficos integrado asà que solo es buena opción si ya cuentas con una tarjeta gráfica de lo contrario mejor compra un ryzen 5 5600 G

Good upgrade from a AMD Athlon 200 GE. And honestly really runs smooth and no problems. Easy to overclock as you can overclock from 3.6 to 4.1 GHz. I use this to play games and it does fine as long as you have a good GPU to go along with it. Just make sure your motherboard bios are up to date before installing this CPU. Overall, if you're looking for something cheap and reliable this is a great place to start as some us just don't have crazy amounts of money.

See if you are upgrading with r3 or blow so this would be great option but if you are thinking to upgrade with r5 3600 or something so wait le me tell you this is an zen3 processor so there is no benefit upgrade with other options because this processor is cheapest 6c 12t processor in market so if you are purchasing r3 or i3 so you can go with this rather than i3 or r3 you will get slightly high performance in gaming and in multi tasking you will get almost 2x performance boost like if you want to edit videos and edit photos and you are in a tight budget so you can chose this one rather than i3 or r3 so that's pretty much it i hope this will help you to find out : )
