The two next-generation consoles based on the AMD Ryzen platform are vigorously promoting 4K high-definition games. Many PC players are "tickled" and want to build a single-machine masterpiece that can run "4K 60FPS" Gaming PC. A colleague of the author has used 4K monitors for a long time, but the old PC can't run 4K games at all. As a result, he asked the author to help build a cost-effective gaming PC and enjoy the charm of next-generation games during the Spring Festival holiday.
"4K 60FPS" running mainstream stand-alone game masterpieces is a test of comprehensive performance. In the past, only flagship gaming PCs could meet the requirements. Nowadays, AMD Ryzen 5000 series processors and AMD Radeon RX6000 series gaming graphics cards make high-performance gaming PCs "4K 60FPS" no longer a luxury.
Hardware selection
For the processor, the author chooses AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, which is a 6-core 12-thread CPU based on the Zen 3 architecture. The acceleration frequency can reach 4.6GHz. It is equipped with 35MB game cache and can support 4000MHz DDR4 memory. The IPC of the redesigned Zen 3 architecture has increased by up to 19%, memory latency has been greatly improved, and it has more powerful game performance. Thanks to architecture improvements and TSMC 7nm process technology, the 6-core 12-thread Ryzen 5 5600X also has an ultra-high energy efficiency ratio, with a TDP of only 65W, and low heat generation effectively guarantees the long-term stable operation of the gaming platform.
For the graphics card, the author chose a non-public RX 6800XT graphics card. Radeon RX 6800XT is based on the Navi 21XT core of the RDNA 2 architecture and has 4608 stream processors with a core frequency of up to 2340MHz. It also uses advanced TSMC 7nm process technology, with ultra-high energy efficiency ratio, fully releasing the strong performance of the graphics card. Equipped with 16GB GDDR6 large-capacity high-speed video memory, with Infinity Cache technology, it greatly improves the equivalent bandwidth of the video memory, and running 4K resolution stand-alone masterpieces is more comfortable.Supports new features such as Smart Access Memory, DXR ray tracing, Anti-Lag, Radeon Boost, etc.
motherboard, the author compares Xiong Huan ASUS B550-A Blizzard motherboards. The white and elegant appearance of Blizzard series motherboards is quite attractive to me. Naturally, there is no need to worry about ASUS stacking materials and workmanship. The motherboard has plenty of expandable space, and has PCIe 4.0 X16 slot and PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot, which can make full use of the new features of Ryzen 5000 series processors and Radeon RX6000 series graphics cards to achieve better performance. For other hardware, I recommend the use of high-frequency DDR4 dual-channel memory, PCIe 3.0 X4 solid-state hard drive and 750W 80Plus certified power supply for a more stable and excellent gaming experience.
theoretical performance test
Zen 3 architecture is really powerful, Ryzen 5 5600X achieved a single-core score of 598 on Cinebench R20 and a multi-core score of 4326. The performance is very strong, and both performances are far The Ryzen 5 3600, which surpasses the previous generation of the same level, is enough to run most of the mainstream single-player games on the market smoothly.
Radeon RX 6800XT's theoretical results are also satisfactory. 3DMark Time Spy scored 18258 and Fire Strike scored 53329, successfully ranking among the top of current game graphics cards. With 16GB of GDDR6 video memory, the RX 6800XT has no pressure whether it is playing high-resolution games or creative office.
game test
The author first tested the Benchmark running scores of 3 major major game masterpieces, all set to 3840 x 2160 resolution and extremely high quality. The next-generation stand-alone masterpiece "Assassin's Creed: Hall of Valor" Benchmark, our Ryzen 5 5600X + RX 6800XT gaming computer has an average frame rate of 65FPS,The operation was quite smooth, and we were able to walk around Norway and England to enjoy the beautiful snow and countryside scenery. The classic masterpieces such as "Tomb Raider: Shadow" and "Far Cry 5" are even less stressful, with an average of 84FPS and an average of 98FPS representing an almost lag-free experience.
The previous "Cyberpunk 2077", the author also tested. Due to game optimization issues, only "medium" image quality at 4K resolution can reach an average of 60FPS in the test scene, and the smoothness of "high" and "super" is average. Of course, you can also adjust the "volume" special effects and "filter" special effects appropriately, and turn on FFX to obtain a game performance close to the average 60FPS.
Summary
Seeing such a smooth game performance, my colleague was very excited and immediately began to save the Vikings. The excellent performance of Ryzen 5 5600X + Radeon RX 6800XT allows 4K games to "fly into the homes of ordinary people." The Spring Festival is approaching, if you are looking for a brand new gaming PC, you must not miss the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X processor and AMD Radeon RX 6800XT gaming graphics card that can run mainstream stand-alone masterpieces at "4K 60FPS" smoothly.
