[SOLVED] Ryzen 5 1500X

[kansas_dude]

Is a Ryzen 5 1500X 3.50 GHz as good as 5 1600?

 

[logainofhades]

No it is not. The 1500x is a 4c/8t cpu, and the 1600 is a 6c/12t CPU.

Define "as good"?

The 1600 has more cores/threads.
The 1500X has slightly higher single clock speed.

Overall the 1600 is "better".
