Performance
How is the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G (Good or Bad)
In terms of performance, 5600G absolutely destroys its intel counterparts with up to 30-40% higher performance when compared to its Intel counters (i5-10600). The “G” over here indicates the following CPU comes integrated with graphics. AMD recently AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is more than enough for your day-to-day tasks such as Browsing, Streaming, and using office productivity applications with plenty of room for multitasking. Now, if your day-to-day workflow involves using video editing, photo editing, and 3D applications the 6 core AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is a very capable processor and should easily be able to handle such workloads.
Integrated GPU
AMD Radeon RX Vega 7
The AMD Radeon RX Vega 7 Graphics comes integrated with AMD Ryzen 7 4000 series CPUs and Ryzen 5 5000 series CPUs. Launched in January of 2020 the iGPU is based on Vega architecture and comes with 7 CUs.
How is AMD Ryzen 5 5600G for gaming
The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is powered by the Vega 7 Graphics which has a performance comparable to that of Nvidia Mx250 with 2GB of graphics memory and slightly below Vega 8 graphics and is capable of gaming at the medium setting with decent frame rates. That being said performance of the Vega 7 Graphics depends on a number of factors such as the configured TDP (12-25 Watts), Clock Speed, Cooling Solution, and RAM configuration.

3D Animation and Rendering
- Cinebench R20
- Cinebench R15
- Cinebench R23

Based on cinema 4d the Cinebench R20 measures CPU performance in animation, 3d-modeling, simulation, and rendering. Single-core performance measures the responsiveness of the software under active workloads while the multi-core score measures the CPU’s ability to handle tasks such as rendering, encoding, and other workloads that benefit from better multi-threaded performance.

Cinebench R23 is the updated version of Cinebench R20 now with AVX instruction set support. Single-core performance measures responsiveness and the multi-core score measures the CPU’s ability to handle tasks such as rendering, encoding, and other workloads that benefit from better multi-threaded performance.
