Old Benchmark Leaks
Ok, so GeekBench is only one benchmark and doesn’t represent real-world performance in all scenarios.
However, AMD’s 6-core Ryzen 5 3600 has appeared on Geekbench showing a score of 5220 on a single core and 27276 over multi-core.
This Geekbench result comes from a PC with a BIOSTAR X570 GT8 motherboard, operating with what appears to be 2133MHz DDR4 memory and stock clock speeds, running with a base clock speed of 3.6GHz and a boost clock speed of 4.2GHz.
In comparison, last years Ryzen 7 2700X is listed as having 4801 on a single core and 26693 for multi-core.
The Ryzen 5 3600 is AMD’s weakest Zen 2 processor announced so far with 3600X, Ryzen 7 3700X, Ryzen 7 3800X and Ryzen 9 3900X all sitting about it.
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Review Overview
Summary
The 6-core Ryzen CPUs have always been the budget gamers choice offering tremendous performance for the price. The AMD Ryzen 5 3600 continues this fashion and in gaming, it outperforms the R7 2700X in all the reviews that have been done. Its only downfall is in high core count favourable applications.
