OCC Reviews the AMD Ryzen 5 2600X
 

"For the most part, the Ryzen 5 2600X is going to perform in an expected envelope. There is nothing wrong with this, as the Second Generation of processors will outperform previous-generation SKU's. While I did not have a 2700X on hand to test, the results from the Ryzen 5 2600X were respectable on many counts. With the newest advances, performance still does not reach Core i7 8700K levels in the content creation and rendering tests, but when it comes to gaming the Ryzen 5 2600X does well when compared to the Intel Core i7 8700K."
