AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Zen 3 CPU Review

Handbrake H264

Our Handbrake H264 test is quicker on the 5600X by 24% versus the 10600K and 13% versus the 3600XT. The Zen 2 eight-core 3700X regains a performance lead to the tune of 11% in this test, however.

Handbrake H265

Architectural proficiencies aid the Zen 3 parts’ scoring in our Handbrake H265 test. This allows the 6-core 5600X to comfortably outperform the Comet Lake and Zen 2 6 cores in addition to the Ryzen 7 3700X. Performance from the Ryzen 5 Zen 3 part is roughly similar to the far more expensive Core i7-10700K.
