A 3600/5600 paired with a 5700 XT would make an excellent budget 1440p build
That would be a fun video to see
depending what you wanna play
i would stick with 1080p and enjoy higher framerate and settings but yea it is a good value build right now.
or 1080p/144hz gaming
That's my exact configuration 😂👌🏻
It’s actually ridiculous how this is literally my exact cpu + GPU on my first build. Upgraded to the R5 5600x and an RX 6700 XT just recently, but that initial combo had me set for 3 years at a great starting point.
Same here. 5600 & 6700xt red devil.
What motherboard do you have?
My spare rig is exactly the same. Asus b450 Prime, Sapphire Pulse RX 580 and G.Skill Ripjaws V
It just keeps on going.
does the r5600x work well with the rx 6700xt for 1080p 144hz gaming???
you can upgrade that setup one more time to a 5800x3d and whatever gpu releases 4 years from now.. your system will be on par with a rtx4090 rig then.
The RX 580 8GB was such a bargain when released. It can still play pretty much every game. Thanks for the likes, I have a benchmark channel if you want to check it out!
Yeah it was a great deal, and used prices means it is again
I got muy 570 8gb and it's rock solid, Even considering my cpu is not the Best to pair these days
@@isaacgutierrez1607 what cpu you have got?
@@RandomGaminginHD Why did you put RX 580 in it? At this price point, you would easily hunt down AIB 3070 8GB
@@HanSolo__?
The RX 580 is under £80 in the UK.
What 3070 are you buying for that?
It's quite nice that the old RX580 is still hanging on as the medium settings standard. Built a HoloISO (Steam Deck OS) system with this GPU. Absolutely solid workhorse
Nice job. Not many reviewers show this end of the budget. I've been a budget builder for a long time and one of my daughter's is still using my old RX 570 8 GB card today and it games just fine. She's just upgraded from an old FX6300 to a Ryzen 5500 and it's a big difference. The 570 is still going strong but is going to be her next upgrade.
Indeed nice to see you continuing to bring true budget gaming systems on your channel. The Rx 580 is the full on model as well not one of the cheaper prices new ones we are seeing on Amazon now, still a decent card but a cut down version.
Mad to see this recommendation in 2023 I recommend this exact set up a good few years ago as budget system mad that lower end has barely moved in last few years
That combo is really impressive. It's still viable today. If course the GPU could be better but that little 580 is great
For an intro to gaming I always will recommend used, especially from eBay used with buyer protection. I’ve gotten killer deals like an a320 motherboard for $30, a Ryzen 3 2300X for $40, and a used rx570 for around $60.
This combo is a really good combination too, no real complaints tbh I just know people on a budget really want more for less and used for me is the best way to go as long as there’s buyer protection
The amount of value I'm getting out of my 1600x and rx580 8gb is crazy, 5 years old by now, heading towards 6.
I know I'm too late for this one ..5 years late apparently
I'm looking to build a PC with this combo can you tell how it's treating you with the new titles ?
nice Work! thank you!
Great video. Testing hardware combinations that suit lower budgets is a terrific idea. I recently added a GTX 970 to my nephew's old FM2+ system, with an A10 7700K and 16gb RAM. With an extra fan and new disk it works well, despite that CPU. I could see your B450 and the Ryzen being the next cost conscious upgrade.
I used to have an RX 580 8gb before it kicked the bucket months after I bought it. It does fairly well in most titles and the 8gb of VRAM gives it enough headway in modern titles. Great video as usual!
what happened to it if you dont mind saying?
@@Kaguyaaa_x_x It began to hard crash with pixels and stripes all over the screen when I played games and I could never figure out the cause. I eventually sold it and bought a better card.
@@GrabASpriteB So you sold your garbage to some other sucker instead of cashing in the warranty for a free replacement?
GPU sudden death is the worst... been there once with a R9 270x.
@@stevethepocket I'm pretty sure he sold it as it is lol, probably already used, the guy he sold to knew what he was buying.
I just watched a video recently about CPU stagnation, sure they're getting better and better, but this chips still seems to have a good deal of life left! Would love to see how it performs with a more powerful card.
Great video >>> thanks love ur channel and the budget builds .. But i cant get over the rain drops on your combo :D .....isn't that wrong ?! cheers from Egypt
I really like this combo. Looks really good together
Interestingly I also thought my first upgrade from the Ryzen 5 2600 & rx580 8 gig combo would be the GPU, but funnily enough I got CPU bottlenecked in the games I wanted to play first, the game that stood out to me was God Of War targetting 1080p @ 60fps.
Edit-Upgrading to the R5 3600 solved most of my issues, thought I'd point this out since it's the opposite experience to the TBF solid advice you have given. The R5 3600 is a substantial upgrade & 100% worth considering.
if you want more fps ALWAYS upgrade cpu first then ram speeds then last upgrade gpu only upgrade gpu when ur at the fastest ram speed ur platform can handle and ur at the fastest cpu cap
@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude ALWAYS? That's bad advice man. It's finding out what the bottleneck actually is.
So Rx 580 + R5 3600 in a B450 motherboard = no bottleneck ?
and if u don't mind, what PSU do u recommend ?
(I'm new and i'm just targettting 1080p & 60fps)
Thanks in advance :)
@@Aladdin-Drj Well there were still frame drops, but those are GPU bound and it wasn't too bad, but i have a freesync monitor so it was still very playable. RX580 doesn't get support any more, just a head up. Just check some reviews, I have a 550watt corsair white certified, and it's been just fine for 6+years. I'd recommend something from a reputable brand like corsair and 600watt+ bronze certified. FYI I have a dirt cheap a320 board got it for £29.00 brand new with delivery all those years ago :-)
This was my exact built for a while and while I have since upgraded to a 1080ti, I am still hanging on to my 2600 given just how well it has held up, not to mention the hell of a card the 580 was
Excellent review ❤❤
Thank you so much for the video. Grabbing a used 2600x for 45 CAD for my ultra budget build
This is my exact setup that I got in 2020 and still use today. I have a 2600x instead due to a really nice Microcenter deal.
Yes, in Asia RX 550-580 is top end gpu..many that only have pity gt..
I used to run this combination up until 2021... then got an rtx 3080 gaming laptop. RX580 is still super strong for 1080p in my opinion especially with FSR.
Yeah for sure, the 3080 laptop is a very nice upgrade!
@@RandomGaminginHD isnt 3080 in a laptop trash tho i hear mobile processors and gpus suck
@@SharkButtholio I mean, compared to his old setup it's not really that bad
@@SharkButtholio laptop gaming > pc gaming. You can go and game everywhere, even in the go. And these new laptops have almost the same performance like PCs
@@_Drekavac_lol thats just uninformed & not correct.
a 80Watt 3080 cannot compare to a 350Watt one lol
This is what I was contemplating about, what CPU to pair with an RX 580, specifically an Aisurix RX 580. Been searching for a vid like this. Thank you man!
i literally did setup this build week ago and now this pop up for me :D
This is almost exactly what my first gaming PC was. The only difference was my cpu was a Ryzen 7 2700, and I got it late 2018. I built my current PC late last 2022. Seeing how much it costs to build a decent system like this is amazing to be honest.
This is the combo I started out on in 2020 except with a R5 3600. Very capable for a ton of games and the 580 was able to do very well in 1080p gaming.
The one I had was given to me, I gave it to someone else and when they upgraded it went to another buddies PC. It’s been in like 4 of our systems and my friend still games on it today!
There is a huge difference with the RX580 on a 3600 than a 2600.
@@wayland7150 I wouldn’t say it’s huge but there is a difference. With how cheap you can get a 3600 now account I think that is a better choice imo. Either one would make a solid starter though
That was my combo too, only I had a 4GB RX580 (also a Gigabyte Aorus, just like the one in the video). If it was 8GB, maybe I wouldn't've upgraded yet (got an RX 6750 XT a couple of months ago)
@@wayland7150 do you mean, the R5 3600 works better with Rx580 than R5 2600 ?
(I know I’m too late 😅)
What about bottleneck issues ?!
Well said . Brilliant video.
I am so happy this video is release! I am starting to restore my free hp pavillion p6610f and want to get modern performance for my first "real" computer with my budget.Thanaks for this awesome video
Ryzen 3600 and RX580 is what my other half got in 2019. I got a 3600 and 5700XT that I already had. The RX580 8GB is still a great GPU. That was the version to buy and could be had new for around £160 at the time. Mid-range cards are now over £300. :(
Still a lot of room to drop-in upgrade later on with this configuration!
Yeah exactly
provided you don't go for x4 lanes 4.0 GPUs such as the RX 6500, maybe even not the 66xx, which is unfortunate - that would require a b550/x570 board with a Zen 2 chip. Something like a used 2070/Ti/Super/3060 might be better but definitely a bit stretching it for 1080p, but granted, I'd argue the 2600x is still a great 1440p CPU for most games and would still take advantage of that GPU power. CPUs simply aren't the bottleneck unless you're going for over 100FPS in a lot of games
@@cldpt What might be the highest GPU for a 2600 without the CPU bottlenecking too much? Assuming 1440p with at least 60fps on AAA titles.
@@amilyester somewhere around a 6700XT / 3060Ti, i reckon.
my first build last march 2020! still able to play any game I want today!
Thanks for the video. It's nice to see that my planned build are on the right direction. The AM4 platform really is a good thing for us poor people. Helps not waste pc components.
I got a 3200g a320 8gb ram 512gb hdd and a 1600x900 monitor pre-built pc during the lock down for school and I already upgraded it with another 8gb ram, 120gb ssd for windows and a RX 580 8GB.
I'll start my first job this April and this is my plan: a1080p monitor, a used R5 3600, another SSD then new mobo and new ram so that I can pass the original pre-built to my Lil bro.
3600 or 5600 /w 6700xt is prolly a good spot with a lot of recent games hitting 12gb vram.
Solid combo.
Alternately, 12100F and RX6600 is a killer combo sourced on sale (99 for cpu, 199 for gpu)
Just scored a deal of i7 10700 and 5700xt for just 30 extra 😂
Last owner just didn't want to deal with selling stuff
@@YuukiHotaruu heavily mined 5700xt
@@Bogdan00 its passed all the needed test, in good condition with matched box and serial on it

@@YuukiHotaruu I dont think so, there are some tests on yt that show an rtx3090 mined has less performance in gaming than a used for gaming 3090. What really matters is that you are happy with your purchase.
@@Bogdan00 and i too want to watch the yt video that claim rtx 3090 have performance degradation in gaming after it being used heavily
i have been following your uploads for some time, I really like your videos, I'm currently playing on an i3-10100 and 1060 3gb version, i can play most of the games no problem, up to 1080p of course, i have been playing on an old syncmaster for the last 5-6 months so i dont really need parts at all :D :D, I have built a pc for my girlfriend with a 2200g overclocked with 2 gb of overclocked ram assinged no gpu at all, there is something really special about playing games on dodgy configurations, theres definetly a stronger bond between you and your rig that way, newer games are released in such bad states it doesnt matter what kind of a pc you have either way! Keep up the good work man! P.S. I really believe CRT is the way to go if you cannot afford a high end pc, I only use it to play games so i got that mental divide between work and playing as a bonus
2:55, I lost it when the grenade bounced off of his head lmao
Built my pc over 3 years ago with a r5 2600 and rx 590 and i can run anything i want quite Highley iswell
this is very similar to the 2400g and 5804gb i used to run in a prebuilt. glad to see that its still holding up, the 580 is a beast
Cpu is the weak part of the prebuilt.
Did you end up upgrading that cpu?
@@aboveaveragebayleaf9216 nah, I've been considering upgrading to a 2700 non x for a Minecraft server but I haven't gone around to that yet. that is also the best CPU the prebuilt supports.
@@tailsman2000 you are absolutely sure a bios update wouldn't let it go to a newer gen?
@@aboveaveragebayleaf9216 Atleast from what I checked from HP's support site, doesnt seem to be a bios update allows an upgrade to anything newer unfortunately. Probably something with the motherboard, but its all right
Just digging your videos. Here in the US Microcenter has the 3600 with a Gigabyte B450 bundle for a $129. Might just pick these up come Friday.
Cheers from Long Island NY
FYI if you want competitive settings for WZ2 balanced preset is a good start, but most players also set a higher POV with 100-110 generally thought of as a sweet spot. This will affect FPS as its more taxing on the GPU, perhaps you can try showing us this next time you do a WZ2 benchmark
Don't forget the "50" AMD cards... The 6650 XT and 6750 XT are usually $50 cheaper than the 6700 and 6800 cards and almost match them in benchmarks. I've been eyeing the 6650 XT at $290 on amazon lately and will recommend to anyone building a $900ish PC. A new 580 on amazon is only about $20-50 cheaper. Even on a budget, the price difference for performance doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
yea no point buying rx 580 new, u should be only buying it used
this man is showing off a gpu in the rain ._.
Cool video. Watching this on my new PC I cobbled together from my previous i5 6500 Intel machine. Got to say I am loving it. Glad to be back running an AMD system with a real upgrade path again. Haven't had an AMD machine since the FX line.
The new machine features a Ryzen 5 1600 AF and from what is online the refresh basically seems to be a slightly lower clocked 2600. I have it paired with an RX 5600XT and 32GBs of RAM on a B450 motherboard. Should do everything I need for awhile yet.
nice review
This was my exact same setup before I upgraded my PC. It's a great combo if you play on 1080p and don't mind playing at med settings.
This was literally my first PC Build back in 2018. I loved it and it performed well at 1080p. I still have my 580 and probably will hold onto it and keep it on my shelf.
What do u have now?
@@olsaaan Now I have a 4080 mixed with a 5800X3D.
Same.
I do love all the raindrops on the very sensitive computer parts!
Im using this build as my main PC since 2020 and Im still pretty happy with it :)
Completely upgraded my 4770k, 8GB DDR3, RAM system about a year ago to a 12600k, 32 GB DDR4 rig but kept my 8GB Sapphire Pulse RX 580. It's an imbalanced system admittedly but I'm still very happy with the performance.
I honestly was planning to do the same in terms of upgrading everything but the RX 580, but silly me thought that it wouldn't be such an expensive upgrade (where I live), so I just thought of spending some more bucks and get the entire thing upgraded while selling my old rig how it was, which helped sell it faster than intended
IF you're happy with it then that's what matters, save your money
I used to have this EXACT setup since 2019. Recently however my poor RX 580's fans completely died for a second time (first was summer of 2022) and I got myself a Ryzen 5 5600X + and RX6600. Long live one of the kings of budget pc parts.
Basically my first upgrade after my FX system. R5 2600, 8gb RX 580, and a strix B350 absolutely loved it.
Great video.
The RX 580 is such a great card. The only reason I changed it to an RX 6600 is to save on power consumption.
The RX 6600 is twice as fast lol
@@captainkirk3000 Yes it is and it uses a lot less power.

It´s weird, I‘m More the pedal to the metal Kind of gamer, aiming for 4K resolution. But these low cost builts are so satisfying and great to see how they perform
Nice. This is almost the same exact setup I have. Got the 2600x on Ebay for $85 and an 8gb RX580 for $90 right before the pandemic started and still using it to play current games like Lost Ark, the Diablo 4 beta, Tekken 7, Street Fighter 5 all with no issues.
Great video, again!
This makes me reassured that -for my needs- changing from my Athlon II X4 640-Radeon RX460 4G, to a Ryzen 3 1200 and RX570 4G will be not bad. AND I can easly upgrade later to a Ryzen 5 2600 or 3600, or even Ryzen 7 1700, or whatever, what my budget will be. :D
ahhh. The good ol r5 2600 and RX580. I have a 480 and although my main pc is far far better. I still love that thing. It's crazy to see it still playing games decently well to this day.
Yeah it’s holding up way better than I thought it would
19 seconds after release
Very quick 😁
wow, congratulations ...
19 minutes after release
Great sucess
Your parrents must be proud
YES. Thats the exact spec im going for with my brother's build!
The droplets in the intro really twig my tech dampness paranoia.
I just gave away my old system with these parts to my great nephew last year. It's great to hear that it is still capable.
❤❤ Excellent choice of video card❤❤
Forget me not in the back ground couple of roses bushes.nice
Rocking that same set up. I just updated to a RX 580 ARMOR 8G OC, replacing my problem prone Sapphire Nitro+ 470 OC. It had a custom BIOS that that could get temperamental.
I had a ryzen 1600 and rx 570 8 gig since late 2019. Half a year ago i upgraded cpu to the ryzen 5500, and oh god, it improved my experience a lot. rx 570 is still doing great!
Damn nice video, if I hadn't already bought the HP 15s-EQ series laptop I definitely would've went for this combo.
Tho prices differ a lot from regions :((
had this combo for quite a while and it works.
it can drive 2 displays etc... but i have literally no idea what mobo i had or anything like that because i started being interested in that stuff when i got my new pc.
worked fine for me for quite a while, pretty nice 1080p rig
Love this gardening channel
Great work 👍 we need a OC video of the R5 2600 and what would be the max GPU to pair with this CPU as I have a GTX 1660 and was thinking to upgrade. Thanks 👍👍👍
My old pc motherboard had the exact same parts and is in use as my sisters sons gaming pc at some point some upgrades might be needed but so far he is happy with it .
this was my combo for 2020 to 2023 :D
Ahhh darn! Almost matches my current setup, a ryzen 5 1600 and rx580 at 1080p it's a great machine
dang bro is this 2019 lol. Great vid.
Now having the gpu under the rain was fun to watch. Good combo tho. well done.
Wow the spec actually hold up pretty well. I own a gaming laptop but interested to build my own PC someday. Gonna go for ideal price to performance ratio
Good to see Deathloop back in the mix. The game is very heavy on the VRAM, I've seen it creep it's way up to 16GB. It would probably keep going up if I had more.
Having said that, I've been testing a RX 550 2GB and made a video on it, and it runs... kind of...
I've had this EXACT SAME configuration for about 2 years now. I can attest, it works great.
Great vid as always. Yeah, definitely a very good combo for the $$$. Currently on my local FaceBook the cheapest 8GB 590 is a nice AsRock for $90. The cheapest 1660 Super is $88 though it is an OEM card but the ringer in my opinion is the cheapest 5700 XT is an MSI for $140. I think for someone with an eye towards 1440P gaming, I'd probably try to scrape together another $50 and go for the 5700 XT though that would probably suggest going up to at least a 3600 or a 10400 which would be another $40-ish ... It's always something. I put together a budget system over the weekend to hopefully get it sold and had an 8400 on hand and a 1660 Ti, 16GB of 2666 and a 240 GB M.2 and was pretty surprised at how well it ran, esp at 1440. I knew it would do well at 1080p even though it's bottlenecked.
Nice Video
Great video!
I always thought my 2600x and 1660 S did a good job at entry level 1440p. Playing ETS & ATS on an ultrawide monitor it reliably got 50fps on high settings.
eyy this is my build rn. All I can say is it does its job amazingly
In 2019 I had just about the same combo, B450 and 16GB RAM, BUT it was the first ever PC I was building and I knew nothing about overclocking and safety with those things. I've heard that overclocked RX 580 is basically RX 590 and that overclocked 2600 is basically 2600X - and that's what I got. So from where I was standing, that combo is still the best combo a money can buy for that price. RX 580 and 2600 are THE COMBO to get on a tight budget, just familiarize yourself with safe overclocking for that oh so sweet free boost.
I am running a 570 with a R5 1600AF so pretty close to this combination and it is a small beast. Handles mostly everything and keeps me happy. I am going to do a repaste to keep it cool as I use it for streaming.
This is my exact setup atm, I am about to build a new rig!
I am still impressed with my 2600/570 combo, super fast m.2 SSD and 32gb o' the ram stuff and it plays everything I put at it and looks good too on this 4K Philips monitor. Cooling wise its got a cooler master G100M MasterAir, system idles at 25ish, sat inside the awesome HAF XM server case which I have stuffed full of 200 and 240mm fans, I did buy a used Seidon 120v for the rig but the seller ripped me off saying it included a AM4 bracket but no worries as that will go on my almost ready to go previous rig which is sitting in a NXZT white case and that is going in front room as a home theatre pc.
I've been running this since a friend spec'd it out for me as a good budget build in may 2020
I have been using nearly the exact build before the whole covid thing happened.
I have a 3500x with Rx 580, still gives me 60 fps at nearly all the major titles at medium 1080p.
I'm planning on upgrading to a Rx 6700 soon.
Back at the very end of 2018, I built a very similarly configured system, just with a 2600x instead of a 2600, so same CPU, just a slightly higher stock clock. The system still works very well.
its my exact build ive been using past 3 years. It didn`t let me down once,
This is an amazing combo considering the price👌🏽
One could easily play everything with this combo and if they already have a monitor and peripherals then they're paying around 350 for the total pc whilst getting similar or even BETTER quality of games/options than say a new gen console
I've been experimenting with the rx570 and rx580 on my fx based systems. Both 8gb Nitros, the rx570 with an fx6300 and the rx580 with an OC'ed fx8350. They all work well together, including Cyberpunk. And they are more efficient than the old HD and R9 cards I was running - more capable for less energy.
My brother and I can confirm this choice. He has a 3000 series Ryzen and the same MSI RX 580 8GB Armor OC I did before I gave my rig to a buddy so we could play together. You might have to tinker with settings but that combo can still rule the roost.
This is the setup my spouse until recently used for gaming, though we had a 3600x in it. The RX580 is still a beast of a card!
I have this as my "travel" PC when I go to visit my parents, albeit with slightly slower RAM (3000MHz) on a 1440p monitor. Still plays a treat for most of the games I still dabble in. Halo Infinite is a tad of a struggle, but only in the open world.
Having that GPU out in the rain like that, you're playing with fire lad.
I've still got my ex-mining Rx 580 sapphire nitro+ 8gb I bought after the first crypto crash. It's a solid card and when I upgraded to an Rtx 3080 last year my son got an upgrade to his 1030.
This was my exact build a few years ago, first pc I ever built for myself.
Wow, that's the stock cooler on the 2600? That's impressive. Saw some videos on the wraith stealth, not being able to keep up & reaching 80 degrees. Maybe your thermal paste is built different
Exactly what I have on my second pc.. It still plays fine at 1080p with FSR quality or medium presets in most games.
My youngest son has a R5 1600af and a RX 590. A similar pairing and decidedly astonishing performance for the cost.
