Episode Title: "Best AM4 Upgrades for 2022: AMD Ryzen 2600, 2700, & 1600AF Revisited & Benchmarked"
Content: Sponsor: HYTE Y60 computer case on Amazon - https://geni.us/3ngWP In this 2022 revisit of the Zen+ (AMD Ryzen 2000) CPUs, including the Ryzen 5 2600, R7 2700, and stand-in tests for the R5 2600X & R7 2700X, we look to see what the best in-socket upgrades are for AM4 and the differences vs. the 13th Gen Intel and AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs. That includes benchmarks of the R7 7700X, R5 7600X, R9 7900X, 7950X, and Intel i5-13600K and 13900K. We also included the AMD Ryzen 5 1600AF (R5 1600AF) that we liked several years ago, as that's actually on the same architecture as the Ryzen 2000 series CPUs. This will help you choose the best CPU for your new gaming PC builds (or for upgrades) in 2022. The best way to support our work is through our store: https://store.gamersnexus.net/ Like our content?
