TopPC CS2 Glock, Ryzen 5 5600X, 16GB (2x8) DDR4, Radeon RX 6600, 240GB NVMe, no OS

CPU AMD Ryzen 5 5600X

The included AMD Ryzen 5 5600X processor has 6 cores and 32 MB cache. It has a base frequency of 3.70 GHz, which can be increased to 4.60 GHz for more demanding tasks thanks to Turbo technology.

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU with impressive 6C/12T core configuration, huge 32 MB cache and core clock ranging from 3.70 GHz to 4.60 GHz receives whopping 22000+ points in famous PassMark test. By purchasing a PC with a Ryzen 5 5600X processor you will get peace of mind for several years as its power allows you to render and work with complex 3D models and do professional video editing with fast rendering times. Of course, any current and upcoming computer game won’t be a problem for this computer because of its powerful Radeon RX 6600 graphics card.

The new AMD Zen 3 microarchitecture hexa-core processor Ryzen 5 5600X was released in November 2020 and has shaken up the CPU market. For the first time after more than 10 years of Intel dominance, AMD and specifically the Ryzen 5000 series have become superior in absolutely every aspect

, including performance in PC games and single-core applications, which were the last two Intel 10th generation CPUs before the Zen 3 debuted. Compared to AMD's Zen 2 architecture and the Ryzen 3000 series processors built on it, Zen 3 boasts a 19% increase in IPC (instructions per cycle), which engineers have achieved by optimising cache and other processor nodes and workflows.

This 19% increase has led to the mid-range Ryzen 5 5600X processor being faster than even the almost twice as expensive Intel Core i9-10900K in tests using just one processor core!

In PC gaming, the Ryzen 5000 series processors look just as convincing. Comparing the performance of the new Ryzen 5 5600X processor in 11 different PC games, it clearly outperforms its direct competitors - the six-core Intel Core i5-10600K and even the eight-core Core i7-10700K.

AMD couldn't match the twice as expensive 10-core Core i9-10900K, but the difference is a mere 10 FPS. That's not much considering that these tests used the most powerful GeForce RTX 3090 graphics card currently available, which costs on average €2,000.

Here's a video comparing the performance of the Ryzen 5 5600X with its predecessor, the Ryzen 5 3600X, and its fiercest rival, the Intel Core i7-10700K.

The new AMD Ryzen 5000 series Zen 3 processors are no less dominant in photo and video processing tasks. In the Adobe Photoshop test, the Ryzen 5 5600X outperforms the Core i5-10600K by an impressive 22%.

In Adobe Premiere Pro, one of the most popular video tools, AMD's hexa-core processor also has an advantage of more than 10 percent.

RAM 16GB (2x8) DDR4

16GB (2x8) DDR4 RAM with 3200 MHz frequency and CL 16 latency will make sure your PC never slows down or jerks, no matter how hard it's working.

SSD 240GB NVMe

To ensure fast loading of the operating system and to guarantee a pleasant use of the computer regardless of its application, we have installed a 240GB NVMe SSD in this system with speeds of up to 3000 MB/s reading and 1300 MB/s writing data.

Graphics card Radeon RX 6600

The AMD Radeon RX 6600 graphics card, launched on 13 October 2021, uses the well-known RDNA 2 architecture that powers other Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards. This card features 28 ComputeUnits, 1792 stream processors, 8 GB GDDR6 14000 MHz graphics memory and AMD's innovative 32MB "Infinity Cache" cache. Radeon RX 6600 is especially suited for gaming at the popular Full HD or 1080p resolution, currently used by nearly 70% of gamers worldwide according to Steam.

Radeon RX 6600 performance in PC gaming

Comparing the performance of Radeon RX 6600 in the most popular PC games, it performs very close to the GeForce RTX 3060 card, despite the fact that the GeForce card consumes around 40W more power. In games like Watch Dogs: Legion, Forza Horizon 4, Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Death Stranding Radeon RX 6600 is even more powerful!

Check out TechSpot 's performance test summary, which compares Radeon RX 6600 graphics card performance at 1080p or Full HD resolution with other current and previous generation models across 12 PC games to give you an objective idea of just how powerful Radeon RX 6600 really is.

Radeon RX 6600 technologies

DirectX 12 Ultimate - the latest graphics API available for Microsoft Windows 10 users.

AMD FidelityFX - an open source image quality enhancement tool for PC game developers to achieve higher quality with minimal load on the graphics card.

Radeon Boost - dynamically reduces game resolution at moments of intense on-screen action. This allows higher FPS without a noticeable loss in quality and improves the player's chances of winning.

Radeon Anti-Lag - a new feature that reduces the lag time between moving the mouse and displaying the action on the screen by up to 31%.

AMD FreeSync - Synchronises the FreeSync monitor refresh rate with the FPS reported by the graphics card to prevent image tearing and jerking.

AMD Smart Access Memory

One of the most impressive Radeon RX 6600 technologies is AMD Smart Access Memory. It enables Ryzen processors and Radeon graphics cards to communicate with each other, delivering up to 7% performance improvement in PC gaming.

To take advantage of Smart Access Memory, your PC must have a Ryzen 3000 or 5000 series processor and an A520, B550 or X570 motherboard with the latest BIOS version and AMD Radeon Software driver!

Ergonomics

Given the amount of time we spend in front of a computer nowadays, the impact it has on our physical health and well-being, or ergonomics, plays an important role in our choice of computer. Laptops are by design unsuitable for long-term use because the relatively small screen is placed very close to the keyboard and the two cannot be in the right position for the human body at the same time. Prolonged work in an unnatural sitting position can cause neck and back pain and even lead to poor posture. Similarly, looking at a small screen puts increased strain on the eye muscles and, over time, almost inevitably leads to visual impairment.

By contrast, if we buy a stationary computer and add a keyboard, mouse and monitor of the right size, we can design our workplace in a way that is comfortable for us and as safe as possible for our bodies, thus avoiding increased fatigue, stiffness and pain in muscles and joints, and serious health problems in the long term.

Remember! No matter what computer you are sitting at, it is advisable to take a 3-5 minute break every 60 minutes to walk around, exercise your muscles, joints and vision, alternating between near and far objects to prevent your eye muscles from getting used to the unwanted focus at a certain distance.

Advantages of a desktop computer

Mobile processors and graphics cards have become more powerful in the last couple of years but the difference between the performance of a laptop and a desktop PC is still marginal. Of course you can run modern games and even professional photo and video editing software on a laptop but at the same price point a desktop computer will offer more performance than a laptop at almost any task.

In our experience insufficient cooling is also a serious problem in laptops and there’s an easy explanation – users want their devices to be powerful yet thin and light which is almost an impossible combination to achieve. Most consumers and manufacturers prefer design and mobility over performance, which results in a visually attractive product that heats up rapidly after just few minutes or even seconds after putting an increased load on the main components. Laptop fans start spinning faster to cope with the excessive heat. This increases the noise and is very often not effective enough, so the CPU and/or GPU reaches its temperature limit and the thermal throttling (self-preservation by significantly lowering the clock speed) kicks in. That results in a big loss of performance.

You don’t have to worry about overheating when you purchase our Counter‐Strike 2 series desktop PC. We have installed optimal BOX Cooler which will make sure that the Ryzen 5 5600X processor delivers its advertised performance without overheating. The temperature and noise levels will remain at a comfortable level all the time.
