Tests reveal that AMD's Ryzen 7 5700 is actually slower than the Ryzen 5 5600

Initially released only to OEMs in April 2022, the Ryzen 7 5700 processor from AMD recently became available as a retail product. Hardware Unboxed put this model through its paces and discovered that it only features half the L3 cache from the X version, which affects performance to the point where it even lags behind the more affordable Ryzen 5 5600.

If we are strictly speaking of synthetic gaming tests, it's true the 5600 has favourable specs. However in productivity or real world use where you don't just run the game at the same time the two extra cores likely turn the tables.

Didmyou miss the part where the 5700X is only $5 dearer, so what fool would pay for the 5700??
