if you decide to put a gpu on the system, cpu only supports x8 and less l3 cache on cpu.
good performance for no gpu system, it runs some games ok, nothing special. If no budget for gpu or small build it works great. AGAIN only x8 gpu lane if you are planning on adding premium gpu for system you will be wasting money. overall

Works well with updated Linux
This processor is very fast and efficient.It works great for heavily threaded workloads and unlike Intel CPU’s does not slow very much (<20%) when two aggressive threads on one core!I paired it with a GigaByte MOBO and 64GB of Micron RAMThe graphics are RDNA3 which is rather new and this is the first APU to use it. As a result I had to go with the recently released Linux 6.10 kernel to achieve stability when running 3D graphics and most high end games. Using MESA 23.X+ I think also makes a difference. In my case I used the recently released OpenSuse 15.6 and then upgraded the Kernel not from the documented repository but from the backports branch of the repository search for OpenSuse and Backports for more information.One more thing there are still many MOBO's kicking around out there with old BIOS that cannot be upgraded until you put a 7000 series CPU in them which this is a PITA. GigaByte solved this by providing a special USB port managed by an independent microcontroller on the MOBO that you plug a USB stick into with the latest BIOS push a button and it flashes the new BIOS without even having to install the CPU, pretty cool!

Works good in Minisforum MS-A1
I finally got tired of my big “Gamer” looking system. I don’t game but love hardware. But I am getting older and RGB and all the other things that I liked just wore off. I went from an AMD Ryzen 9 5900x to the 8700g. In day to day stuff I can’t tell the difference. Temperature is way better than the 5900x, 65 vs 105 watts makes a difference. In a mini case it is running cooler than my old CPU, without having fans running loud. I even had a 360 aio.

Good PCIe4 APU.
Perfect for non or very light gamers.Performance and video are so-so. Excellent for basic productivity and light 1080 gaming. No support for USB4 or PCIE5 which seems a little behind the times considering the 8500G release date was not long ago. Price however, is good. Great APU for the right person.

Fast!
Installed on a desktop PC that is the cornerstone of my consulting business. Runs all the Office apps; CAD viewers, Oracle P6 quickly. I expect to get many years out of this one before I need to upgrade.

No CPU Included
The shipping box was sealed however the CPU package seal was broken and the CPU was missing. The CPU fan was in the box but no CPU.

Productivity Processor with Gaming capabilities
If gaming is your primary goal then don’t buy this CPU. 7800X3D is much better paired with a dedicated GPU.If you are more into productivity oriented stuff, occasionally play games and you don’t want to be financially ruined by the cost of a good GPU then this processor is for you.I mostly use the PC for programming(JakartaEE, Android, SQL), run several virtual machines simultaneously and this CPU is incredibly fast. Never wished for a faster experience.As for gaming, it holds its own with 1080P medium settings for most games.FYI, when playing demanding games, the cpu cooler bundled with it is really noisy. I recommend upgrading to a better air cooler or an AIO liquid cooler.

There is not much more than i can say other than it is a good cpu or rather a cpu and graphic card combo chip system. I.e you can technically use this chip to generate your video for you games but at basic settings and resolutions. When you combine it with a real video card then it becomes very powerful. It was easy to install, it came with an amd spire cooler which is taller than the regular cooler and so far so good. No catastrophe and everything seems good and not causing a meltdown. Provided you do a fresh install of windows otherwise you will have all kinds of driver issues, but that is not the fault of this chip. This is just extra information. It is not cheap but considering how powerful it is and the fact that you get a really decent cooler that is usually around 50$ on its own, this is not a bad deal at all for the most recent tech which should last you 5 years minimum.
Llegó súper rápido. Solamente tuve que resetear el BIOS para que diera vÃdeo. –
Llegó súper rápido y todo bien.

Il non plus ultra per sistemi da salotto compatti e build mini ITX.Da infatti il meglio di se già a 45W anzichè 65W di default: il calo di prestazioni è risibile mentre ne beneficiano calore/rumore/vita utileConsiglio ram da 6000MTs CL30, oltre è inutile, rendono di più timing stretti che frequenze elevate.CPU potente e adatta per tutti gli impieghi (che non siano workstation o utilizzo VGA high end), con GPU integrata al vertice della categoria capace davvero di sorprendere e comprensiva di NPU per carichi di intelligenza artificiale.

L’objectif était de faire tourner des llm et jouer sur un pc uniquement alimenté par cet apu et c’est chose faite. Impressant, Satisfactory en 1080p en médium. Très impressionnant
