AMD’s ‘Cezanne’ Ryzen 7 5700G and 5600G are currently the best budget gaming APU you can get

AMD’s first 7nm ‘Cezanne’ Zen 3 APUs is finally here, and the chip that has brought this architecture to us is an eight-core 16-thread Ryzen 7 5700G. From what we know, the manufacturer is planning to use the Cezanne chips to plug big price gaps in its Ryzen 5000 lineup.

This chip will be the first AMD APUs available at retail since the quad-core Zen+ “Picasso” models back in 2019. AMD has decided to keep the Picasso chip off the retail market, and the plan seems to have caused quite a discomfort for gamers. So without further ado, let’s move right on to discuss the capabilities of the chip.

As we know, due to the pandemic we are faced with supply chain disruptions and component shortages both of which have rocked the globe. All this along with the rise in cryptocurrency has resulted in the worst ever GPU crisis in history.

AMD’s launch of the Ryzen 5000 series was indeed a profitable move for the company; however, the inflated prices of the APUs are resulting in the shrinking popularity of the Ryzen 5000 series. So the company has decided to use the Cezanne APUs, which come with Zen 3 execution cores paired with the Radeon Vega graphics engine, to solve these problems.

AMD believes that the availability of Cezanne at the $359 with eight-core 16-thread and the release of Ryzen 7 5700G will help the company tackle many problems brought by GPU and CPU shortages.

Coming to the Ryzen 5000G specifications, we know that it spans from four to eight cores and has Zen 3 architecture that provides a 19% IPC uplift over the company’s previous Zen 2 architecture.

For now, that company has only decided to bring out its eight-core 16-thread Ryzen 7 5700G and six-core 12-thread Ryzen 5 5600G for retail. However, AMD is yet to announce whether it will bring the four-core eight-thread Ryzen 3 5300G or the 35W GE-Series models to retail as well.

According to sources, the eight-core 16-thread Ryzen 7 5700G has a 3.8-GHz of base clock speed and a 4.6-GHz boost clock speed. It also has 16MB of L3 cache, and the eight Radeon RX Vega CUs operate at 2.0 GHz. With the support of the DDR4-2933 to DDR4-3200 interface, the chip will help boost gaming performance with its integrated GPU. 

Since the ongoing GPU crisis, AMD launching an affordable chip with more than average performance gives hope for us gamers. Speaking about pricing, the $359 Ryzen 7 5700G is a good choice between the $449 Ryzen 9 5800X and $299 Ryzen 5 5600X. The 65W six-core 12-thread Ryzen 5 5600G comes with a 3.9 GHz base, 4.4 GHz boost and is supported by seven Radeon Vega CUs for graphics. The chip comes at $256.

The ongoing chip crisis and the highly inflated prices of graphics cards have made many DIY PC makers fall in despair. Since many are still unsatisfied with the high pricing of the CPUs and GPUs in the market, the Ryzen 7 5700G looks like an attractive chip for those who want a normal APU. However, for those looking to find the fastest integrated graphics performance currently on the market, the Ryzen 7 5700G is second to none.

During this crisis, AMD has managed to produce a budget gaming CPU that performs better than average than all the CPUs under its price segment. AMD has also promised that it will have enough supply of its standard chips that generate higher margins, so let’s hope that we can see more of the Cezanne chips in the market.
