Built a budget gaming rig for the nephew and this little processor is def underrated. The 5600x is a much better processor (obviously) but this 5500 paired with a 1060 6gb is no joke! Kept frames at well over 100 on Fortnite and Minecraft (windows 10)

This CPU performs slightly better than the R5 3600 with less heat . I had to put the latest bios in my a520 board for it to boot. It pulls 42 watts in my system at idle : a52o MB,M2 drive,3.5HDD,80+ power supply, 3 case fans, 16gb ram. I would not hesitate to buy this CPU again.

Good starter cpu with a massive upgrade from my old system. Pricing is good, and it came with the heatsink. The cooler is a bit noisey but does the job. Good upgrade path is the 5600X or the 5700. Thanks 10/10

Less expensive than its 5600 counterpart. For what I need, Gaming and regular PC use, it is the perfect performance and wallet friendly option. Highly recommended.
