AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Zen 3 CPU Review

Blender Classroom Benchmark

The 5600X comfortably outperforms the cheaper Core i5-10600K and Ryzen 5 3600XT in Blender. But the slightly more expensive Ryzen 7 3700X and its eight Zen 2 cores are notably faster in this test. If you were looking at purchasing the 5600X for a budget multi-threaded Blender rig, the 8-core Zen 2 offering looks to be a more valuable solution at the price point.

V-Ray CPU Benchmark

V-Ray sees the 5600X continuing to deliver strong performance leads over the cheaper Core i5 and Ryzen 5 chips. This time, the overclocked 5600X matches the stock clocked 3700X performance and is within touching distance of the 4.7GHz 10700K.
