The 6 core, 12 thread Ryzen v 2600X is 1 of four new AMD 2nd generation of loftier-end desktop Ryzen processors (codenamed Pinnacle Ridge) renowned for splendid value multi-core performance. The 2600X is set to replace the besides 6 core, 12 thread 1600X equally AMD's new mid-range Ryzen 5 flagship. The latest generation of CPUs features a matured Zen+ chip architecture with 12nm lithography, increased clock speeds and Precision Boost 2 technology designed to leverage more CPU ability than per the outset generation. The 2600X appears to have stock base / heave clock speeds of 3.half-dozen / four.2 GHz. This is only marginally faster than the 1600X'due south 3.six / four.0 GHz. Modest effective speed improvements are expected, although farther benchmarks are necessary to draw firm conclusions. The 2600X ships with a Wraith Spire cooler and is priced reasonably at an expected $250. However, for nigh employ cases, the new lower clocked Ryzen 5 2600 at $200 represents improve value for money. Pinnacle Ridge processors are designed to work with the new 400 series motherboards, which allow for greater overclocking head room, and they are also backwards compatible with the 300 series motherboard post-obit a bios update. Fifty-fifty though the 2600X is plausible for multimedia production streamers should wait elsewhere. Streaming with dedicated hardware such equally NVENC or a separate stream PC will nearly always upshot in fewer dropped frames.^{[ Apr '18 CPUPro]}

MORE DETAILS

The Ryzen 5 1600 is one of four new Ryzen 5 processors released this calendar month. Based on the AMD Zen architecture, which is comparable to Intel in terms of IPC, the Ryzen 5 1600 has six cores which is more than the vast bulk of games are able to employ (virtually games cannot use more four cores). Ryzen 5 CPUs offer gamers better value for money than the eight core Ryzen 7 models released last month. With vi cores the 1600 is approximately 75% ameliorate at multi-threaded tasks than Intel'due south quad core i5 flagship – the similarly priced i5-7600K, the 1600 even so, has 25% lower single and 33% lower quad core scores. The 1600 has stock base/boost clock speeds of 3.two/3.half-dozen GHz and its price tag of $219 includes a cooler. Assuming a small overclock of x% brings the 1600 within hit range of the 1600X which is the Ryzen 5 flagship. The 1600X sports stock base of operations/boost clocks of 3.6/4.0 GHz simply costs $30 more the 1600 and ships without a cooler included in the box. The Ryzen 5 1600 is the best value for money 6 core CPU nosotros take seen to date.^{[ Apr '17 CPUPro]}
