AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Review: Why Is This Amazon's Best Selling CPU?
by Dr. Ian Cutress on May 18, 2020 9:00 AM ESTGaming: Far Cry 5
The latest title in Ubisoft's Far Cry series lands us right into the unwelcoming arms of an armed militant cult in Montana, one of the many middles-of-nowhere in the United States. With a charismatic and enigmatic adversary, gorgeous landscapes of the northwestern American flavor, and lots of violence, it is classic Far Cry fare. Graphically intensive in an open-world environment, the game mixes in action and exploration.
Far Cry 5 does support Vega-centric features with Rapid Packed Math and Shader Intrinsics. Far Cry 5 also supports HDR (HDR10, scRGB, and FreeSync 2). We use the in-game benchmark for our data, and report the average/minimum frame rates.
All of our benchmark results can also be found in our benchmark engine, Bench.

What a great site, thank you for posting it!tommythorn - Monday, May 18, 2020 - link
Typo: ">>Unfortuantely<< AMD has stated ...""once in a while, a truly great CPU" The 300 (but really, 450) MHz Celeron C300 II was such a processor. It was a kludge (desperate to compete with AMD, Intel rushed out a chip that was essentially a P-II but much cheaper). It ended up being an amazing value and with a few hacks even become the introduction to SMP for many.

I remember it well. Crazy to get a 50% overclock, but almost everyone's 300A would hit, and keep, 450.MDD1963 - Monday, May 18, 2020 - link
The famous Celeron 300A@464 MHz for $79 was quite popular, and, gamed as well as the $450 PII-450...Spunjji - Tuesday, May 19, 2020 - link
Funny how Intel's best price/performance moments tend to be knee-jerk responses to AMD :DToTTenTranz - Monday, May 18, 2020 - link

Really, is that the only USB hub on sale in Australia to rank that high?yeeeeman - Monday, May 18, 2020 - link
Cheap price and good performance. That is why.Flunk - Monday, May 18, 2020 - link
$200 is the prime price for people building a fairly powerful computer, but with a budget. 3600 pairs well with pretty much any video card for gaming and is pretty powerful for anything else. Intel competition at this price point is weak, at least until Apollo Lake. 3600 is a obvious recommendation.
