CPU Benchmarks
Ashes of the Singularity
Straight away, you can see excellent performance from the R5 1600. Not only does it perform well, but overclocking this R5 even matched the performance of the 1700X running stock speeds.
Cinebench R15
While this may be one of the mid-range CPUs, it does still offer 6-scores and 12-threads. Of course, more threads means better performance in tasks like Cinebench. Overall, the R5 1600 does a pretty fantastic job here.
Handbrake
As we saw in Handbrake, those extra cores work well, giving us a decent score for a CPU in this price range.
WPrime
Amazingly, the stock and overclocked performance thrashed the Intel 7700K with ease in WPrime. Of course, this CPU has more cores which are a significant benefit.
