AMD Ryzen 7 5700G
The Ryzen 7 5700G is an affordable processor and with a budget motherboard and memory combo, it was possible to piece together the entry-level platform. Such a build was suitable for casual gaming, mostly at 720p, but it could game and was also excellent for use as a home theater PC.

You get nearly 5800X performance at a price that is at least $50 cheaper in today’s pricing. Plus, the 5700G has onboard graphics so you can get started on your PC build without having to purchase a dedicated GPU. This all adds up to the Ryzen 7 5700G being just an absolutely fantastic value for gaming and desktop.

Podríamos decir que ésta sí es una APU válida para gaming a nivel básico, con más de 60 FPS en 720p – bajo y más de 40 FPS – bajo en 1080p, y aún mejorable su tiramos de FSR. Tampoco nos volvamos locos, pues no tiene nada que hacer frente a una GPU dedicada, pero mover juegos, renderizar y trabajar con aplicaciones CAD y BIM sí que puede.

If you're willing to accept lower fidelity and a limited selection of titles, AMD's Ryzen 7 5700G brings unbeatable 1080p and excellent 1280x720 gaming to iGPUs. However, its less expensive sibling, the Ryzen 5 5600G, is a better value.

Today's Ryzen 7 5700G does offer much higher performance on both CPU and graphics cores, of course, but be prepared to pay for that. The problem is that for 1080p gaming, the integrated graphics simply are not powerful enough, not even at the lowest possible setting. For pure gaming, you'll be better off with a several-year-old graphics card that supports DirectX 12 paired with a value-champ CPU like the Core i5-11400F, Ryzen 3 3300X, or 10400F, in that order.

AMD's exceptionally fast Ryzen 7 5700G is a integrated-graphics-equipped, eight-core workhorse CPU of major proportions, slaying gaming records with its Radeon silicon alone.

The 5700G is a fantastic all-rounder CPU, combining the best ever integrated graphics with eight speedy Zen 3 cores while keeping under a 65W TDP.

Yeah, the Ryzen 5 5600G / Ryzen 7 5700G is not likely to ever make sense for high-end gamers, but the reality is simply this APU isn't designed for high-end gaming. We also feel they might be a too expensive Zen 3 component relative to gaming performance. However, for all other scenarios where you might need proper even serious performance but do not need a strong GPU, they both certainly could be very viable processors.

For productivity and light (and I mean very light) gaming, the Ryzen 7 5700G is fine. It’s not exciting, it’s not RDNA 2, but it works. But I’ll say this again, because I think it’s worth repeating: at its $359 list price the Ryzen 7 5700G doesn’t make any sense for gaming when you can buy the much faster RX 6500 XT at $199, and pair that with a halfway decent CPU (one example is a Core i5-11400F at $149, and a Ryzen 5 5600 isn’t much more), and be spending about the same amount, in total.

By PCPer on

In the here and now, the 5700G does make sense for some scenarios, but its 'Ryzen 5000 Lite' design doesn't quite live up to full-fat Ryzen 5000's sterling reputation.

By EuroGamer on

Are you going to complain that the Ryzen 7 5700G at $359 is an insult to the memory of the Ryzen 5 3400G, which had a suggested price of $149? You will, you will. But considering the state of the world today, we understand its pricing and recognize its potential for people who can really grow into a system. You can, for example, build a Ryzen 5 5700G machine today and get outstanding CPU performance along with OK gaming performance.
