keep your system running cool and quiet click the link in the description for more information ambi launched their rise in five lineup of CPUs today with four new processors sporting either four cores with eight threads or six cores with 12 threads this should prove to be an exciting launch as the archives are priced between 170 and 250 US dollars the 1400 and 1500 X at 170 and 190 respectively with four cores and eight threads in the 1600 and 1600 X at 220 and 250 with six cores and twelve threads all CPUs are unlocked for overclocking when paired with a B 350 or X 370 chipset and four motherboard so although I'll only be testing the 1500 X and 1600 X today I think the 1,400 and 1,600 will be the chips to get if you're willing to do a bit of overclocking on your own speaking of which I'll be back tomorrow as well with this video dedicated to overclocking right in five CPUs so get subscribe to my channel if you're not already and make sure you turn those notifications on to so you won't miss it for today I want to focus on performance benchmarks rather than the architecture details and specs that you guys probably already know about if you've been following right in for the past month so here's a rundown of what I will be comparing the unlocked core core for 576 hundred K from Intel has been the go-to processor first white quite some time when it comes to building a gaming PC so that will be the primary competition from the Intel side I've also got the 8 core 16 thread Rison 7 1702 pit against the 1500 X and 1600 X giving us a core course race test configurations are always tricky to decide on so here's my mo for today I wanted to overclock but I wanted to keep things reasonable so I'm running everything reasonably overclocked I chose speeds that I think just about anybody can hit with some basic overclocking and maybe a 30 to 50 dollar air cooler so my rise in CPUs are all running at 3.9 gigahertz on all cores and my 7600 K is at 4.8 Gertz on all course this should represent the low end of the overclocking ranges that these chips can all hit and it should also be a suitable 24 seven overclock depending on your specific silicon of course if you're trying to dial the same thing at home for memory I kind of did the same two eight gig ddr4 kits running at 29:33 on both platforms with all timing set to 16 16 16 39 finally I ran all tests with the same GPU the Galax gtx 1070 EXO c sniper which was also overclocked so it was running at about 2000 25 megahertz on the GPU well under full load so the questions that i'm hoping to answer today are will the 1070 perform the same across all platforms indicating that an r5 1400 plug board is all you really need will AMD's performance at 1080 can continue to suffer compared to the 7600 k with its better instructions per clock performance and can we finally build a really nice gaming PC for less than $1000 it has more than four freaking threads at its disposal let's run down the hardware I'm using and then dive into the benchmarks so for our m4 system we have an Asus crosshair 6 hero motherboard this is an X 370 chipset board so do bear that in mind be 350 is what AMD recommends you pair and r5 with but for the sake of comparison to some older benchmarks as well as forward-looking to my overclocking videos I'm going to be doing very soon so I stuck with the crosshair 6 hero for storage have a patriot hellfire m2 nvme SSD it's a 480 gig version so that's giving us a little bit of extra performance on the storage side but shouldn't really affect the benchmarks at all everything's powered by a course our HX 1000 I have power supply and 4 memory at the G scale flare X 3200 speed kit although I have down clock that's a 29 33 just for this test if you're interested to see how far that can go again I'm going to be following up with an overclocking video very soon and I for cooling eyes of course there H 100 IB 2 which is a bit overkill for this platform but again wanted to stick with that when I do overclocking testing as well in the future and I'm very confident that these chips given their low TDP of 65 watts will be able to be handled by any 35 to 50 ish dal or air cooler that you might find as well for the Intel system I have the gigabyte Z 270x gaming 7 motherboard for cooling I have the Corsair H 110 liquid CPU cooler for memory I have the HyperX predator 3200 speed kit although it again it was set to 2933 with the timings I already listed and finally for storage you have the Intel 600 P and vme SSD in the 512 gig version and now finally we can dive into the benchmarks starting with Cinebench r15 of course and for these first couple benchmarks I do is include the 7700 K and FX 8350 performance because I do have some numbers for those but the 1700 of course destroying everything else with its multi-threaded performance with all 12 I'm sorry all 16 of its beds available followed up by the 1600 X to the 7700 km 7600 K looking at the single thread performance numbers here the 7600 K with a score of 205 definitely has the advantage here when it comes to the single thread score but we'll see if that helps up through the rest of the benchmarks now to handbrake just Rhian coding a 4k video down to 1080 the fastest times are the winner here and of course the 1,700 wins again with all of its threads 1600 X coming in second with the time just shy of 10 minutes followed by the 7700 K and 7600 K 7600 K definitely being helped up by its 4.8 gigahertz overclock there and actually almost catching up to the 7700 K and then we have the 1500 X bringing up the rear here unfortunately SMT did not seem to help it overtake the 7600 K in this test moving into the gaming benchmarks starting with the synthetic 3d mark firestrike ultra here we can see the overall score remaining roughly the same for all of these systems so that would tell us that we don't necessarily need if all we're doing is testing 3d mark of course we don't necessarily need the higher end processor like you might need with the 7600 K or 1700 however you do see a pretty huge difference when it comes to the civics test which is the more CPU focused test and 3d mark and we will again see how that continues to play out with the rest of the benchmarks beauty mark times pi is a DirectX 12 benchmark also synthetic of course and here we can see the r7 1700 shining and both the overall performance as well as the CP performance 1600 X as well I think largely due to that CPU score was able to overtake the 7600 K in this test so in situations when the CPU is taking more into account than the GPU you can see better performance from the 1600 X to the 7600 K moving into actual games this is GTA 5 at 1080 and I'm running all these benchmarks by the way at 1080 and 1440 here we can see the 1500 X kind of starting to tank and I think this is going to be a continued in trend as we see that for Korres is not quite keeping up as well as it should of course depending on what you're doing the 7600 K did seems to do all rights although it again trailed behind the 1600 X and the 1700 you also pay attention to the low scores here these would be 1% and 0.1% to slowest frame times so it's a bit better way of determining if you're going to see any choppiness compared to just showing the minimum frame rate at 1440 we see a little bit more of an equalization when it comes to the 7600 K 1600 X and 1700 with the 1500 X again showing that in a CPU bound somewhat CPU bound game like GTA 5 that does like more CPU performance and more threads a 1500 X isn't quite keeping up the 7600 K did still do a good job although you can see it's starting to trail when it comes to those low scores sieve 6 is kind of an odd game to benchmark I did it at 1080 and 1440 and it didn't show that much of a difference between the two resolutions which I think it's kind of funny for a game like this I think there's some scaling thing going on but it does show that it does like more threads more cores with the CPU as a 1600 X and 1700 definitely came out with the win here albeit by a sort of slim margin 7600 K coming in third and then the 1500 X trailing behind once again at 1440 we see a little bit more of equivalency we actually see a slightly higher effort framerate which is weird since this compared to 1080 it's said yeah I don't have a very good explanation for that but again we can see that most of the CPUs are keeping up with the sentence evety whereas 1500 X is again falling behind a bit moving on the Metro last light still a very relevant game when it comes to benchmarking performance and here again we can see the 1500 X Knox like keeping up 7600 K doing a little bit better than that 1600 X and 1700 stick and right with it I do want again point to the low scores on the 7600 being a little bit lower than I might expect actually and I do want a reference here that when it comes to smoothness and gaming that's sort of been reference with the rise in processors quite a bit and I've tried to pay attention to it a little bit more I know it's sort of anecdotal but I did feel like all the benchmarks when I was running it felt very smooth on the Rison system so so the zero percent scores are something to be taken into consideration especially looking at Metro last light here in 1440 we can see that the 7600 K the highest average framerate but did seem to suffer when it came to those 0.1% lows and that was indicative of some of the bits of hitches and stutters that I saw while the benchmark was actually running Witcher 3 at 1080 saw roughly equivalent scores across all the chips although we do see a bit of it step down as we go down the line 1500 X actually came up big here outperforming to 1700 and 1,600 X which I thought was was kind of interesting but the the performance really isn't that far off with any of them although we can see here again the 7600 cake coming away with the best average framerate but again the worst to zero percent one low score moving out of 1440 the game becomes a little bit more GPU bound than CPU bounds so the CPU doesn't matter quite as much although we do again see the 1500 X coming in last everything else performing roughly equivalently the 7600 K coming out with a bit of a win by about 3 or 4 frames per second moving on to overwatch the 1500 X actually at a really good score here 194 average and very good 0% to 0.1% lows as well the 7600 K I have no very good explanation for in this test I'll be perfectly honest this is the very last test of all of the benchmarks that I ran went to 7600 K I came out with just some anomalous numbers I tried to investigate every ran the test several times I don't have a good explanation for this but just bear in mind take that one at least with a grain of salt because it was the last benchmark I ran and I didn't have time to investigate it further if I move to 1440 though you'll see the scores are pretty much the same across the board there was really minimal variance 7600 K did have a lower 0.11% scores in this one but by and large it was still the same so no good explanation for my 1080 scores at 7600 K but all-in-all overwatch is easily handled by any of these processors I've already mentioned that I'm using fairly high-end coolers for these all-in-one closed-loop coolers of 240 rad on that one and a 280 rad on the in cell one but I do still mana list temps I did measure them at least with the rise in processors I was measuring with the rise in master software at the peak temperature during my hand breaking code hits 73 degrees Celsius at the hottest on the r7 1700 that does have a higher GDP so that kind of makes sense 7600 K withstand pretty chilly 72 degrees at 4.8 gigahertz bear in mind that these different CPUs rise in verses Intel have different charts when it comes to the actual peak temperatures that they can hit so 72 is on the cooler side for insel weather whereas it's a little bit more on the warmer side for ambi 1600 X hit 65 degrees at 3.9 gigahertz and the 1500 hit X hit only 56 degrees that is one of the nice benefits of having a quad core support opposed to the sixth course is they do generate less heat I found slide here is a frames per dollar slide and basically I took all of the actual gaming tests not the synthetics added up the frame rate for them this is not the most scientific way of doing it but I wanted to give some sort of aggregate here at the ends so the total frames produced by all the cards are listed there and then the retail prices are also listed their current MSRP for the AMD chips and then the current retail price at new leg for the 7600 state which was 240 bucks here we can see when it comes to frames per dollar or frames per 100 dollars we're actually getting the best bang for our buck out of the r5 1500 X but that is largely in part thanks to its lower price by about good 60 bucks we have actually pretty dead heat when it comes to the 7600 caber since the 1600 X and I would say though that the performance of the 1600 X and non-gaming situations would push me over the edge to towards getting the 1600 x over 270 over the 7600 K 1700 obviously comes down a bit when it comes to your bang for the buck but you are getting additional cores and threads there which again would be useful for non gaming situations but this is a big reason I think why people were excited about the RF is for gaming is because you're not paying for that extra performance that you're not going to use with the games the only thing for your fork or a fixed core part which you're going to get a lot more use of when it comes to actual PC gaming so overall I am pleased as punch with the rise in v lineup and even more so after doing some direct comparisons to intel's gaming performance obviously the higher thread and core counts for the r5 s give them a huge edge in any computing task that takes advantage of those multiple threads but even the gaming performance seems to be at least up to par with a okay with some back and forth depending on the gaming question there has been clear evidence in the past month that aim DS rise in CPUs have a lot of power still left under the hood and game optimizations as well as leveraging higher ram speeds for example has both already been shown to draw out more untapped performance I think the best value an archive lineup will probably be the 1400 or the 1600 paired with some overclocking which I will be showing you guys how to do in my next video but for those who just want that out-of-the-box experience that excuse are still decent bangs for the Bucks you just you know if you want to just plug it in and have it run at a higher frequency I would also say that if you're planning to stick with 1920 by 1080 gaming for a while you'll be ok with the 1400 or 1500 X but if you want to game at 1440 or high refresh rate 1080 or if you want to delve into streaming or video editing then the 6 core 1600 or 1600 X is definitely worth the investment and hey another seldom mentioned benefit of the am 4 platform overall is that you can buy a cheap quad core like a 1400 and still have an upgrade path to an 8 core CPU in the future without swapping your motherboard so there you have it guys another exciting launch from AMD that I think a lot more home builders will be able to get excited about since the price range is a more reasonable I want to close with a general statement about product launches like this though get a second opinion I've done a lot of work in the past few days to get this video produced and test these chips but there's a ton of other youtubers and tech websites out there they're also covering these chips with alternate configurations testing more games at various other resolutions and generally providing you guys with the information that you need to make a buying decision if you're on the fence right now so I'll be perusing some of those this morning and adding those links to this video's description so you guys can have someplace to go for further viewing and/or reading that is all for this video though stay tuned for the overclocking video coming
