Consider telling people what you want the components for too - your miniature gaming pc. You may get better advice/opinions. I also upvoted your post.

Ah sweet, I'd say it looks pretty good for that already. But, yeah you'll always have someone that goes a bit more into detail with it.
The worst part is when you ordered and people come out to say: why didn't you do this or that.

What are Seagate HDD's like? I've always avoided them, I think because of things I read several years ago.
Ryzen 5 5600, ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WIFI II, Corsair Vengeance RGB RT 32GB 3600MHz C16, MSI RTX 5070 Ti Ventus 3X OC , Corsair RMx Series RM750x. AOC AGON AG324UX - 4K 144Hz 1ms

Well I have nothing to add then, looks good to me.

A lot better than what they used to be. Less failure rates, there were times/models that I (and our company) actively avoided them... but it's been different for a while now (around the time they acquired Maxtor I'd say).

seagate overtook samsungs hdd part. have 4 samsungs in my rig (with ssd 5), as well as 2 older samsungs drives to outsource some series and other stuff which i mount naked with a dockingstation and since 1 year a seagate too, never had a problem except once more than ten years ago with an old 160gb sata1 drive which got some errors, rma and within one week i got a new one

I think that budget was about the same price I bought this one a few years ago.

In almost *every* game, I'm sorry you don't seem to like it Janz but in every benchmark and review I can see, there are a handful of frames difference at best ... unless, like you rightly said, it's a game like GTA which truly makes use of multithreading -- but then, you're not going to be entertaining the idea of a dual-core in that situation anyhow, are you?

That's half a dozen major gaming and hardware sites versus your anecdotal "not in many games" evidence. Again, I'm sorry you don't agree but from where I'm sitting; this looks to be a OUTSTANDING budget chip. Run it stock and you get a poorer experience, but push it as it's meant to be pushed and it becomes one of the best bargain buys you could think of.
~edit~
And emulation;

https://www.reddit.com/r/MAME/comments/2rbvam/modern_cpus_and_mame_i5_vs_pentium_g3230/
People cannot stop singing the praises of this. $50 vs $150 is hardly something to sneeze at, especially if you're building a budget system and not aiming for highest of the highest.

ofc in in single threaded processes its fucking fast because of the high clock speed. but upcoming games and software are all multithread optimized. even if the price / value factor is that good its just not reasonable to buy such cpu for gaming stuff

That's the unlocked multiplier golden chip, right? Tha thing is the most ridiculously awesome CPU I have ever seen/read about.

Most are not optimized for more than 2 cores and neither will they be in the foreseeable future.
And don't compare products in vastly different price ranges.

Shiaaaat, looks great to build a budget emulator box for the TV and still get away with most co-op games.

but have in mind that the massive oc might make the cpu age must faster, nobody knows. and it consumes even more power than actual i7 if i remember correctly and it gets even hotter than an amd fx9590. last thing could become a problem in a bartop

Same scaremongering that anti-OCers have been saying for years.

You don't remember correctly.
Quote: | and it gets even hotter than an amd fx9590. |
I can't find any evidence of that. The heat problem is no more an issue in a bartop than it is in a media centre PC, as long as you have adequate cooling. You've made your point Janz, and I while I appreciate you making it.. I still disagree, so let's just drop it and move on - this isn't a processor for the "hardcore gamer" looking to max everything and nobody said it was, but it is a truly spectacular one for most anyone else.
It's great for media centres, it's great for budget gaming and it's absolute perfection for emulation.
