Read our full AMD Ryzen 5 5600X review (opens in new tab).
This is a decent little overclocker, and while it won't affect gaming much, it'll help in other areas nicely. You don't need to, but if you do, you'll hit higher clocks for longer and also open up the wonderful world of overclocking, which could make it worthwhile. The Ryzen 5 5600X also bucks the Ryzen 5000 family's trend by shipping with a Wraith Stealth cooler, so you don't have to drop extra money on a third-party chiller. You could argue that gaming could go beyond the 12-threads we have here, but there's no evidence that is the case so far, and that's even though the next-gen consoles are rocking 8-cores and 16-threads.
This is only an issue with those more serious workloads, though, and this is more than sufficient for more reasonable stuff. This does have half the core count of that top chip, rolling in as it does with 6 cores and 12 threads. Which is incredible when you think about it-top-tier performance from the most affordable Zen 3 CPU? We'll say yes to that every single day. There's nothing between any of the Ryzen 5000 chips in games, which means you'll hit the same frame rates with this chip as you will the much more expensive chip. When it comes to gaming, everything that's great about the 5900X rings true for this more affordable Zen 3 chip as well.
