This is a fantastic APU...I was coming from an 2400G that core was aperently ment for middle of the road performance with a side of it can do light gaming/rendering this one is a high end 8core/16thread with a side of it can also game/render lol...in all honesty I really didn't need anything this crazy I was just looking to put tother another ultra small form factor system and I wanted to try out the new inwin b1 case with it's improved(over the inwin chopin non pro{full disclosure I didn't know the chopin pro with the 200watt PSU existed cuz I probably wound have purchesed that instead of the b1 becase the brushed aluminum absolutely premium build and way better cooling with the all mesh side panel...ok I think I just talked myself into getting one of those aswell lol I'll turn the b1 into a server or something lol})power supply and odd not quite retro but not quite space age theme and this core ended up being listed around Thanksgiving for the MSRP of the 6core varient so that's why I got this and now my big rig with the 3700x is kinda put to shame lol...it is paired with a founders rtx 2070super tho so in that regard this Apu is not showing off but I have it paired with 32gb of ddr4 at 4000mhz cl18(cl16 easly achievable if I drop down to 3933 which I have done cuz Iv notice real performance difrences between cl16 and cl18 more so than any deminished performance from dropping 66mhz) and a 1tb nvme pcie4.0 SSD and 2 fairly fast 2tb SSHDs in the back of the b1 and also a secound m.2 measly 500gb nvme on a risser in the unused pcie16x slot and all together this system has unintentionally replaiced my main rig as my daily driver ..it's just so fast and if I'm not trying to game at 4k I don't even consider turning on the other system, considering I spend most of my time on Linux doing CPU intensive tasks and consuming multimedia not gaming this core is completely meeting all of my needs and arguably significantly exceeding them ...all the being sead I would not have payed for this core at much higher of a price, I know iv seen it upwards of $400...ya no that a non apu 12core/24thread price point but if you can catch this one on a sale for $300 or less it is an absolute beast with the added bonus of the best integrated graphics the modern world has seen to date🤪

...later edit...well and addendum realy
Ok so iv also purchased the 5600G and well, they feel the same, it is comparably fast vs the 8core at "normal" user tasks lol, I realy only see the 8 core stretch its legs when compiling large sets of source code and that's only if I deliberately tell it to use 16threads, ya honestly the 5600G might be the better of the 2 for its target userbase... BUT it needs to come in at a noticeable price difrence, unlike in my situation were they were both unbelievably cheap becase I caught them both will at a low point in the market...
But ya I just wanted to add that little anecdote with my experience with both of these core, now being fair to the 8 core now I have the 6 core paired with only 16gb of ram in a asrock deskmini x300m, ya these to with there detremetanly difrent total price points don't feel difrent in any way with normal load, there both stupid fast giving you a respectable instruction per clock that I'll make "normal" people work and entertainment just butter smooth...what more needs to be sead realy lol...

I like low power consumption and speed for the price.

I use this for general office stuff and photo editing.

I upgraded from a 2700X which was really good, However I hated not having onboard graphics to troubleshoot. While the On-Board graphics is powerful enough to do light gaming and basic office work It's only a Radeon Graphics APU, Meaning anything released in the last 15 years is probably outside of it's capabilities with exception to some online games (Runescape, League of Legends, ect). That's not really why you would want to buy this for a gaming computer, You could have a processor with more raw power and more L2/L3 Cache that would definitely do better, but... having onboard graphics is sort of like a spare tire. When a GPU inevitably breaks it's nice to be able to hop along and still use your computer until you get a replacement. It's for this reason I bought this processor, my GPU may break & I may or may not be able to buy another graphics card based on current prices (Things have gotten crazy on the GPU market.... most people can't afford mid-range GPU's anymore) I love my computer but I'm not that wealthy, having onboard graphics as a spare tire is infinitely more valuable than 5% increase in performance, Don't let that fool you though this APU is a powerhouse of AM4 Architecture and compared to my 2700x It's really fast, with higher turbo frequencies and a much lower TDP, It can still be overclocked (granted voiding your warranty in the process) for when you want to squeeze even more juice out of it. Overall it's a great CPU and I highly recommend it for anyone who can't upgrade to AM5 yet (All AM5's have built in graphics)

Rashoxmon here, sharing a review for the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G Processor. A purchase that delighted my computer enthusiast friend "“ it's become the heart of his virtual machine setup and server. The processor's capabilities have left him content, and even its built-in GPU allows smooth 1080p gaming. A happy choice indeed.
