Multi-threaded performance is far better than Intel's price competitors, Single-threaded XFR boost to 3.9GHz is a high clock speed for this price point, Allows for manual overclocking with an unlocked core multiplier, Clock frequency helps it overcome IPC
Gaming performance is behind that of Intel's competition, Power draw in our Cinebench measurements is disproportionately higher than Intel's competition, Worth a $20 upgrade over the 1400 but the six-core 1600 is only $30 more expensive
Ryzen 5 1500X delivers strong performance when you focus on productivity tasks. Workloads such as video editing and rendering benefit from the additional threads provided by SMT, giving the 1500X a commanding lead over Intel's similarly-priced competitors...

Exceptional value for money, Quad-core performance at dual-core prices, Latest AM4 platform, Easy to overclock to 4GHz, Able to compete with more expensive processors from Intel, Ideal for 1080P gaming systems, Low TDP and temperatures,
Falls behind in rendering tasks, Neutral, Higher memory latency than Intel, but it doesn’t have a big impact on real-world performance, “The R5 1500X is offering reliable performance for mid-range gaming system builds at bargain prices. Like the legendary
PricingThe Ryzen R5 1500X is kind to the wallet at just £150/$179, which is less than half the price of the Ryzen R7 1700 which is £294.98. It may be half the price, give or a take, but it's certainly not half the performance when it comes to gaming or re...
Abstract: The first half of 2017 is proving to be an interesting one for AMD. There's promise of next-generation RX Vega graphics coming to a PC in May or June, bringing much-needed competition to the high-end space, and AMD already has a trio of Ryzen eight-core C...
Poor overclocking on stock cooling, Only four cores
No. The Ryzen 5 1500X presents a solid alternative to the Core i5-7600K with all the modern features one would expect from a CPU, but the main draw for Ryzen chips is extra cores at the right price. The slightly more expensive Ryzen 5 1600X adds two cores...
Abstract: I'm going to start this article off with a simple number: five. Not only is that the number of months it has taken AMD to effectively turn the x86 processor world on its ear, but that's also the number of distinct model families that they've introduced...
Looking back at how things played out over the course of this review, I have no doubt it will be one of the most hotly debated articles that I've written in the last few months, maybe even the last year. There's no denying that the Zen architecture has pr...
When Ryzen 7 launched there was a fair bit of controversy surrounding some of its shortcomings. Overclocking headroom was disappointing, finding the right memory was like walking through a minefield, Windows 10s power plans didnt play nice and there wer...

Sometimes you don't have to be the absolute best to be a winnerIn a nutshell, Ryzen 5's main advantage over Intel's Core i5 range is the higher number of cores and threads it offers while sharing the same price bracket. That's not unlike what AMD offers w...
