Testing the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 six core 12-thread CPU in 10 popular and demanding games in 2024, using an RX 6900 XT discrete GPU.
* Cheapest available brand new, at the time of writing, in the UK, for a CPU with 6 cores and 12 threads. Subject to terms and availability, side effects may cause itchy palms, infertility and burning discharge.
Support Iceberg Tech: / icebergtech
6 cores are the modern standard for gaming PCs, so the cheapest one is naturally going to be of interest to gamers looking to save some money on their new build. Not everyone wants to risk buying used CPUs, and the fact that the ancient FX-6350 is still currently available is something of an anomaly, so with those caveats in mind the Ryzen 5 4500 is the lowest cost 6 core on the market. With strong competition from the slightly more expensive quad core i3-12100F CPU, is there room in the market for the 4500, or are the corners that AMD cut in getting it down to its £60 price point too severe?

I upgraded my gaming pc from an Intel Xeon W-2135 (6core/12threads 4.5 GHz max boost) to an Intel i5-12600K last December. I think I’m starting to regret my decision of going with Intel now that LGA 1700 is officially dead(as in no more new cpus). I feel like I should have gone with a Ryzen 5 7500F. But it would have probably increased the cost of my whole build by $300 at least. I would need an expensive AM5 mobo and DDR5 RAM. My total build cost was $850. I have a RX 6700 XT, i5-12600K, 32GB DDR4 3600, and ASROCK Z690 Extreme mobo, a 1TB SN770 SSD, a Cooler Master 850W 80+Gold rated PSU, a MSI MAG ATX case, and a Thermal Take 240mm AIO(I got this for ONLY $40!!!!). So, was I right to go with the i5-12600K?

@kynamthong7777 Ай бұрын

Great video, as usual. This was actually the CPU that i bought for my recent build. Got to use it for a few months until I upgraded to a 5700X. Overall, when paired with my 6700XT, the thing was doing just fine in esports titles like CS2, but in games such as RDR2 or Death Stranding, there was some big frame drops here and there, which was a bit annoying imo and also one of the main reasons why i upgraded to a 5700X.

@@Flyon86 It's a bit better (very slightly faster than a 3700X) but I think we're both still GPU constrained, except for in e-sports titles and emulation.

@Flyon86 Ай бұрын

@@darthwiizius Yeah, although depending on your motherboard the 5500 could be causing reduced performance on you gpu too since it doesn't have pcie 4.0. OP said he had rx 6600, so switching to a ryzen 5600 should give him a bit of boost just due to that alone. Personally I think moving up to a ryzen 5700x3d (or 5800x3d) makes the most sense for a substantial upgrade if you have a 3600 or 5500 etc. like we do and don't want to buy all new for am5. A lot of games like the big cache from the x3d and it should help with 1% lows a lot.

@krissythecatboi Ай бұрын

I actually got this one for my PC, because I needed something with ReBAR support for my Intel Arc A580. So far, I'm happy with it, the performance is good (I do gaming at 1080p and 60 fps), except I'll need a new cooler as well, cause the stock one just isn't doing it. Even with new thermal paste, synthetic stress testing leads to temperatures just over 90 C, which is pretty bad at stock clocks (at ~4.2 GHz boost), even if no normal workload pushes the CPU that hard, neither games, nor streaming, nor video editing or compiling code.

@StaelTek Ай бұрын

Usually, the 4500 and 3600 kinda switch places as the cheapest 6 core CPU. But what i find offensive is that even a Ryzen 3 3100 has PCIe 4.0, but even the 4500 and 5500 only has PCIe 3.0 and the 4500 in particular only has 3.0 x8

Second hand market for AM4 motherboards and Ryzen 2xxx and 3xxx processors was worse than what was shown in the video with prices being higher than the 4xxx series and even similar chips for "new". Intel you were getting hit by lack of availability on the second hand market and new still had the Intel tax applied. While compromised slightly, it's a phenomenal chip for the price.

It's "soixante neuf", the French word for sixty nine. KZfaqrs all tend to all say "sixty nine, nice", and I wanted to do something similar but different. It's a reference to a scene in Talledega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, where Sacha Baron-Cohen is talking about French inventions.

If anyone is considering a 4500, you should also price compare with the 5500. Both processors have similar deficiencies (pci versoin), but the 5500 is a fair bit faster. In my market, the price difference for the uplift is about $7.

Interestingly enough, if you download chipset drivers for a b550 board with this CPU installed, It downloads and applies the ryzen power plans. (Which as far as I know and can tell those power plans are only really applicable to Matisse chips, not Renoir.) I noticed for myself that the windows power plans give me much better performance, fps and frametimes. I could not believe how dogshit my performance was using this chip until I switched back to the high performance windows power plan which gave me the performance I initially expected. Can someone verify this?

I started with this CPU on my first AM4 board (and a GTX 770 lol) but I upgraded to the 5800X3D and got an RX6800. I bought this CPU quite literally BRAND new when it came out for only $99, and was kind of disappointed in the absolutely horrible reviews it got. I think some reviewers forget that some people can only spend the absolute bare minimum, at this time I was saving money and paying rent for 2 people so I just needed a computer that worked for basic stuff. Considering I already had the GTX 770 and a case, I was plenty happy with spending $250 total to build a computer with a new CPU/MOBO/RAM. That same Motherboard (B450M) powers my 5800X3D+6800 and sits in a new case with an AIO and plenty of RGB. And even though I use it for video editing and photoshop as well, it holds up just fine when compared to how it started lol

I learned fast what L3 cache was after I bought a Lenovo workstation with 6c/12t xeon which, like the 4500, only has 8mb of L3. Cyberpunk 2.0 update positively REKT my cpu. Now I struggle to stay above 60fps with MEDIUM crowd density… Originally I thought the 2135 Xeon would be a good pairing with my 2080ti. I’m not catastrophically CPU bound, but definitely would have been worth a few extra bucks to find a workstation with a 2145 Xeon with 12mb of L3 and just disable a couple cores. Adding a couple of sticks of server ram to take advantage of the motherboard’s quad channel support also seemed to help, though I don’t think that is directly related to my L3 problem.

@swuspicious Ай бұрын

disabling the cores would also limit you to said cores' allocated l3 cluster so you'd still be with 8mb usable l3

Cache and RAM are somewhat related. When you have little cache overclocked RAM and timings give large improvements. But workstations likely cannot do this so you are kind of stuck.

I just don't get it, yeah cutting corners, but down to 8 MB of L3, that's just crazy. AMD of all companies seems to get how important L3 is to frame rate stability and percentile lows, yet this is what they produced? If it had 16 MB, it would be passable, better than many Intel cpus, but 8? Yeah, it's budget, but that's just crazy.

This has the same vibes as when Intel nerfed the Celeron by cutting cache. Would love to see this compared to that FX! The 4500 seems to be better value than the 12100F in most cases, especially when considering that you can get AM4 motherboards for same or less than LGA 1700 ones. However, LGA 1700 has better upgrade potential if you dismiss the power costs of the i7/i9 CPUs. Otherwise, I would simply always pick AM4 at this budget.

If this one had PCI-e Gen 4‚ it would've been an absolute banger. Though it is no problem for my country as we can still get the R5 3600 that is slightly more expensive (somewhere around 10 - 15 Euro more)‚ and it manages to deliver every bit of bandwidth RX 6600 would require. But for some other stuff than gaming‚ this CPU is really nice. I would love to see it compared to the Ryzen 5 3600.
