If you don’t do any gaming and don’t plan on buying a dedicated GPU. The 5600g is completely fine as the integrated GPU will take care of all the small day to day desktop tasks.

If you do any gaming get the normal 5600, the extra L3 cache makes a difference in gaming and you won’t be using the iGPU as I imagine you will also pair it with a dedicated GPU.

Good approach, KISS. Keep it simple and stupid.

Motion sensors for lights are a reliable and old school way to go. HOA wants a front porch light in for us once it’s night, my solution a light sensing bulb that drops in and turns on automatically once it’s nighttime.

Eufy 11s, robot vacuum with random navigation and remote. Cleans well, no app and due to no maps no issues picking it up and hitting auto clean button in whatever location I want. Can still set schedules, manually control it, etc it just randomly cleans till battery is low and charges.Ran daily I have no need to tell it to randomly clean when I’m away in an app, the house is already vacuumed.

A lot of things can be automated without going the smart home route which can introduce security and privacy issues. And reliance on software that may or may not be working in a few years. Figure out what works best for you.

I have two Eufy 11s, a large portion of their lineup is near identical minus a few little differences. Mine have a remote and no wifi/app, where as yours has those features.

No maps on these, their random navigation “dumb” robots. Hit the button and it will go till battery gets low and looks for the charger. Works good if you have one bot and multiple stories and don’t want to worry about maps or anything like that, which was my situation.

It will collect a lot of stuff for the first few weeks than it will gradually become less. This is fairly normal with all new robot vacuum owners.

I own two for a reason. It works, and I don’t want it connecting to wifi.

Gamer checking in. Single core performance is very important as games are not quite yet capable of taking advantage of say 12 cores compared to 6 higher performing cores.

It’s why the 5600x3d performs so closely to the 5800x3d while gaming despite it being a 6 core vs 8 core comparison. We encountered something similar a decade ago with i5 vs i7 for gaming games we’re not capable of taking full advantage of hyperthreading. But as time went on the gap between the two widened.

Hopefully this will be a wide spread release. I recently paid $300 for the 5600x3d combo and a heatsink. Haven’t even had time to build it. Saw no point paying another $100 more to go AM5 when this offers enough performance I will probably skip AM5 with how long I try to stretch builds.

Hopefully this is widespread so people have a nice budget upgrade on AM4 and nice budget AM4 builds with an x3d cpu. DDR4 is cheaper, and with a budget build price matters.

Kind of thinking the same thing but no idea on actual performance. I picked up the 5600x3d a few days ago just haven’t had time to build it, and that gets within a few percent of the 5800x3d performance in most titles. I’m thinking the lower clock speeds will play a big role in performance compared to cores.
