Ryzen 5 8500G 6-Cores 12-Threads Max 5.050GHz 24MB Cache Wraith Stealth Cooler Desktop Processor

Why did you choose this product over others?: Decided on this CPU for a new build for 2 reasons: First, the onboard GPU. It's only a 740M yet enough grunt to get into your O/S or play a few games at stupidly low settings. It's primary use is as a backup if the main GPU ever has any issues. Dual monitor options are also there if needed. Second reason for this CPU is it's being paired with an Intel ARC B580. Due to the limitations of the CPU controller & the B580 only running at PCIe 4.0 x 8 this CPU is ideal. I'm also not planning on having an array of M.2 SSD's as this will also eat into available lanes off the CPU so BE AWARE of that. It's also super quiet, low power draw & comes with a fan/cooler. Thermal paste is already applied to the base of the Fan Heat-sink so no need to mess about with that (unless you're nervous and want to dab more onto the CPU). Max Memory speed is "supposed to be" DDR5 @ 5200mt/s. I'm actually running it @ 5600mt/s (dual channel ~ 16gb per channel) and it's fine. I did try 6000mt/s as the memory modules I'm using support that speed but the CPU didn't like that and kept rebooting. Memory & CPU are happy at it's current speed so I'll leave it as that. As It's for a cheap-ish gaming build, I've not had any issues. ARC GPU seems to love running with this CPU & I'm getting a lot higher FPS than all the reviews would suggest otherwise. Works for what I've set it up for - just be aware of the CPU onboard PCIe & memory limitations and you'll be fine.

No problem with this product both in fitting to the board, always a nervous time and firing up the computer once installed. The specification as published is met and I am more than happy with my home build Asus using this processor. I didn't want a high powered gaming machine but the list of specs available at the appropriate price seems good.

Great CPU.

AMD delivered as usual , good product

Amazing value CPU for the money,and the APU isn't that bad either to be honest.

8500G is a fantastic processor, and overall performs quite well for the price. I appreciate it, has its drawbacks such as less PCIE lanes. But from my experience, hasn’t really impacted the performance of my GPU or the SSD. I will say this for me is a stop gap processor, and longevity could be an issue in a few years. But in the here and now, I couldn’t recommend it enough. For the price as well, with a decent IGPU it’s not a bad deal. Obviously, if you can I would recommend the 8600g or the 7600/x but I’m happy, with what it does and how it performs.

I totally upgraded my system and this was the CPU I went with and I couldn't be happier. I went from Ryzen 3600 and this 8500G just blows it away. If looking for decent priced AM5 upgrade from previous AM4 then I would recommend this because its really good chip very fast plus if you are on budget it has decent integrated graphics so don't need a GPU straight away.

Best budject product

Dope

good

Decent little APU, not super strong, but able to handle some fairly cpu intense games. 7 days to die (with upscaling and frame generation) is pretty playable at high settings (1080P) Definitely some artifacts from the frame gen/upscaling, but playable. For the price it’s not bad, but it is not a stand in for a dedicated GPU. Unless you play at low settings. Good for budget builds, and if you add a dedicated GPU it seems to perform fairly well if paired with a solid ram set. bonus perk, good for troubleshooting GPU display issues.

Super processeur! Pas la peine d’acheter les derniers modèles, celui la fait bien le taf. Je recommande

Buen articulo
