    Wish AMD hadn't lied about X370 support else I would have waited for this.

      Simmer down, Threepwood.

      The technology world moves at a pace we can seldom keep up with…

        AMD promised X370 would get supported. AMD then said X370 will not get supported and it is physically impossible for it to work anyway. AMD quietly added support two years later.

        That isn't technology moving at a fast pace. That is a company lying and cheating early adopters. Intel is no better but AMD were the underdogs and should not have spat on their supporters who were first in line to help them.

          Stop complaining about a platform supporting 4 generations of CPUs. Maybe if you hate it so bad move to Intel and stay at peace with 2 generations of CPU support instead.

          imo, they are providers of a product. you buy a product, best to evaluate what you can get 'right now' than based on future promises. having that emotional investment of 'support' is going to be detrimental to your well being. if you find that the numbers work out, and buy, years later finding out that you get more value out of it (because they added more support), it's a bonus. otherwise having that level of expectation is going to result only in tears.

          just my 2 cents.

          AMD have also revised chipset support to provide longer and broader support for new generations in the past.

          Ned Kelly learned to just roll with it…

          AM4 was supposed to be abandoned much earlier than it is going to be. I know nothing about chip design but the reasons were apparently along the lines of designing new chips on existing socket was a hard(er) thing to do than designing a new socket with more pins. New sockets more often is something Intel prefers to do, probably for those same reasons.

          You should have realised AMD was lying when AMD forced Asrock to drop support from their X370s

      might as well skip AM4 altogether and wait for the AM5 7000 series at this stage for you. lucky you are not on the intel camp or it could've been worse…

    Also seems to apply to their other cpus e.g. 5800x for $427 delivered — all time low?

  • I remember people climbing over eachother to pay $1500 for these chips when they came out. At this point $700~ seems very steep still.

  • Rrr I will ask . Is the 5600g the last integrated version please . Don't want need or afford dedicated card ?

    • +1

      There’s a 5700g

    • +3

      There's an 8-core version the 5700G but for most users the 5600G in this scenario will be fine. The 5700G does have slightly better graphics capability as well but it's marginal at best.

      The 5600G paired with a $100 B550 motherboard will serve most users for most things and is perfect for multi-monitor (3 max) and HTPC configs. It will certainly do light gaming as well but no where near as well as a dedicated card. Hard to say what the graphics capability is but perhaps something between the GTX1030 and GTX1050 (non-Ti).

      How AMD will progress their integrated versions is unclear at the present but given you can get a 5600G/B550M combo for about $300 right now it's hard to ignore.

      • Yep, just bought a 5600g and B550M board yesterday for the kid to play some basic games at 1080p.

        $304 for 5600G and very well credentialed MSI B550M-PRO-VDH-WIFI motherboard after 3% off Ebay giftcards from Shopback and 17% PLJL17 voucher at Ebay. Available even cheaper from the same link if you're happy to forgo built-in wifi and 4 DIMM slots, and choose a cheaper mobo instead.
