Ryzen 5 I have to say is bloody amazing, 1600 is still my chip of choice and overclock it but out the box 1600X is hard to beat!

Do we know if the 1600x has got the same silly +20 degree readout as the 8-cores? The Tom's review has an alarming 87 degrees at 4ghz :o Would have hoped that the 6-core units would be cooler than that...

It runs hotter than 1600 yes, whether or not its just readout error or truly hotter I am not sure as we did not use probes. But in testing 1600X and 1600 both reached same max stable OC and whilst doing so 1600 was cooler. :)

Now I do hope your purchasing with OcUK considering no other reseller shares such data. ;)

The 1600X has the offset, because it's a 95W part. None of the other R5s do, since they're all 65W.

Lol, tis my plan to do so, yes, though might be a month or two. I'm too old to fiddle all night (with a new build), so I'd like to see if someone pops out a motherboard with good stable 3200 memory support out of the box :) Appreciate the info, will probably go plain 1600 for now, with an eye on Zen+ further down the line ^^

Strange choice by AMD there... just makes the X look worse, given similar OC potential :S
