First benchmarks of the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 processor

The first benchmarks of the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 processor are shown, in this case mounted on an ASRock X370 Taichi motherboard, not on a motherboard with an AMD 400 Series chipset.

Although the AMD Ryzen 2 processors have not yet reached the market, they are already being seen in different unofficial benchmarks. In this case, we are talking about a user from Chile, who has acquired the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 processor, a processor intended for the mid-range and that aims to have excellent performance. The processor was mounting on an ASRock X370 Taichi motherboard, possibly without an update for this new processor and would be accompanied by 16GB of RAM at a frequency of 3.400MHz.

The AMD Ryzen 5 2600 processor, has six cores and twelve processing threads, which will be priced at $ 199. This processor is characterized by having a base working frequency of 3.4GHz and it seems that in Boost mode it reaches 4.0GHz. The processor has a 65W TPD, which is not bad at all and is accompanied by 19MB of L3 cache.

We have highlighted that the motherboard is ASRock X370 Taichi with BIOS P4.60. Although it is a great motherboard, it is not capable of supporting new technologies implemented in this Ryzen 5 2600, such as XFR 2.0 technology and Precision Boost 2.0, since they are only compatible with motherboards with AMD 400 Series chipset.

Regarding the scores, this has given in Cinebench R15, a result of 1384 points with the processor working at 4.0GHz and the RAM at 3.333MHz. The latency in AIDA64 Caché and 'Memory benchmark' has given a maximum latency of 61ns, offering a reading speed of 46.787MB / s, writing speed of 46.397MB / s and copying of 43.877MB / s.

Right now is not the time to draw conclusions and less if it is mounted on a motherboard not 'suitable' for this processor. It is possible that with an AMD 400 Series chipset, they will improve the performance of these processors a bit, allowing to use dedicated technologies, but it is too early to say.

  1. 4.0GHz with a voltage of 1088V is not bad at all, the new 12nm manufacturing process for the Ryzen 2000

    1. In an X400 series and a good overclock the 5th generation iXNUMX with or without overclock have nothing to do.

      1. Intel's eighth is the same as the sixth and seventh (turbos) eighth with additional cores
        from 2700k to 3770k only 3% performance from 3770k to 4770k 5% performance, from 4770k to 4790k it is 3% performance per turbo at 4,4ghz, from 4790k to 6700k it is 7% extra, from 6700k to 7700k (it is the same only with turbos at 4,7ghz) 4% more, now the 8700k is the 7700k with two more cores.
        and this is not ryzen 2 but ryzen + is 2000 series

      2. Since they're asking for so much change in one year, do you really think companies would do it at an affordable price? Reducing it by 2 nm per year is more than fine. Ideally, these changes should be made every three years so that technology doesn't outpace price?

  2. The ryzen 5 are the direct competition of the i5 obviously, both have always been for the mid-range, that is why for years these 2 do not bring SMT or double thread, so these new mid-range will exceed the eighth generation i5 by far in many things.

  3. Please, a few hours ago it also came out that they tested it and overclocks only up to 4.0, is it a rework of the 1600, increase 200ghz? And below they are already saying that it surpasses the i5, what fan boys they are, this time he did it wrong, basically increased 200ghz, a rehash, that works better with x470 and new technologies, and the worst thing is that they say that it beats an octaba i5, at least in games that i5 is much better, personally I saw that there is a difference of 10fps onwards in various games, it is not that they are 1 or 2fps, they are 10 in adelnate, you can look at it yourself on the internet you put i58400 vs ryzen 1600x or vs the 8600k that is already much higher, they took more care to put an rgb ring on the stock cooler that nobody will use if they overlock than improve the frequencies more

    1. that game that was seen in a french magazine is with an a320 motherboard, meaning low-end without turbos 2 xfr and enhanced, meaning the performance in games is lower, but they do not give fps but the entire game in global, since it only oceans a single core, now what the xfr2 tries to do is the scaling that Intel does in its latest turbo boost technology that all Intel cores do turbo but scaled. now the bios on that board is not really configured perhaps when it comes out they are ready to see the final result, on the other hand at 4ghz it is your conjecture because it does not agree with the xfr turbo given by amd now a minimum processor can ocean up to its trubo there is ryzen 2 at 4,35 xfr meaning a lower frequency than a turbo cannot ocean because theoretically it is impossible.
      In most games Intel is better but be careful there are games compatible with Ryzen and are on par in certain games.

      1. Now, gaming is a part for minors and young people. Not everything in computing is gaming, but rather a team for work, for editing videos, 3D shader editions, multimedia, etc., in that, the first-generation Ryzen works very well.

    2. Of course it surpasses them and it is not a rework like the ones from Intel, now this ryzen has 100 MHZ less than the i5 8600k, but it is double thread, that alone puts it higher than said intel, higher even than an i7 7700k, this ryzen with about 300MHZ more would be better than the i7 8700k.

        1. Of course I know what I'm writing, this Ryzen 5 (2600) has the same power (only 2% less) in single core, but this Ryzen is dual thread, meaning it has SMT, and that gives a BIG plus to this processor over the i5 8600k, now well, if we talk about OC, all Intels have toothpaste inside, this Ryzen is soldered like the other Ryzen, and it is 12 nanometers, which makes it MUCH more capable of overclocking than any Intel, I assure you that this processor in overclocking could tie an i7 8700k in OC as well and give a similar performance, wait for the benchmarks and you will see it with your own eyes.

  4. It looks very good, right now I have a R5 1600 at 3.8ghz and first in cinebench it already beats it less frequently, I look forward to seeing more results and seeing what will happen with future Ryzen 3000.
