We will post benchmark results on this page as we get them.

The Ryzen 5 5600 has similar specs to the 5600X but the latter is clocked slightly higher on base and boost. It’s going to be interesting to explore exactly why this CPU was released if it’s the same price as a 5600X and is clocked lower. But maybe the 5600 has an ace up its sleeve?
