Does The Ryzen 5 8600G Make Sense in 2026?

The AMD Ryzen 8600G launch over two years ago, when AM5 motherboards and DDR5 RAM was expensive. The price of the APU itself has dropped, at least in some countries, and so have board prices, but the cost of RAM is higher than ever. What does that mean for a CPU like the 8600G and it's onboard 760M graphics. Is it worth it, or does it make even less sense for a gaming PC build? 0:00 Intro, Specs, Pricing Problems 0:50 A Sensible Alternative If You Don't Care About iGPU 1:04 8600G vs 7500F w/ Discrete GPU 2:08 Who's This For? 2:21 Test Setup 2:53 Cyberpunk 2077 3:49 Baldur's Gate 3 4:20 Counter-Strike 2 5:18 Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 6:09 Marvel Rivals 6:59 Battlefield 6 7:57 Overwatch 8:49 GTA 5 Enhanced 9:26 Helldivers 2 10:03 Red Dead Redemption 2 10:52 Final Words Thanks for watching :)
