Hi folks, the Ryzen 5 5600G has presented itself as a neat option with comparable performance to the 5600X. Yes, single core performance is better on the 5600X and yes, the 5600G has integrated graphics that aren't required with a dedicated GPU. I found this video to be a pretty decent comparison (albeit with RTX 3060); TLDW version is games that run at 60+ FPS on 5600X will still run 60+ FPS on 5600G, and you're mostly looking at a few frames difference in GPU intensive games, which, considering the $200 saving in this particular build versus the 5600X equivalent, I think stacks up pretty nicely.
We looked at builds with the 5600G and no GPU various different ways, but being a new CPU the pricing just doesn't work for us to do a deal on it. Sorry!
