AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler - YD270XBGAFBOX

Its a great chip for the money. For the $300 price range its the best value for performance imo. The stock cooler that comes with it is comparable to an after market cooler like an Evo 212. Intel doesnt include coolers with their chips anymore, so you need to add an extra $30-50 for an equivalent.

An amazing cpu for the price

Item arrived in a pretty banged up AMD box, everything else looked okay so I continued with the CPU install. As I was putting it into the motherboard, 3/4 sides would drop down in to place fine. Took a closer look at pictures I took before putting the CPU in and found that 3+ pins were bent! Anyways, thank goodness for Amazons great tech support department, Im getting a replacement, however, this item is listed as NEW but the packaging and bent pins suggest otherwise. Ill give this review an edit when the new CPU arrives.

Lots of compatibility issues it appears it having.

This is in my opinion the best processor you could get for the price. 8 cores 16 threads for just a little over 150$. Overclocks super easy and runs pretty cool. AMD ryzen master makes it easy to monitor the temps and core voltage. Compare this to the 8700K from intel.

Upgraded to the AMD Ryzen 7 2700x from my old Intel i7 3770k. My old system could still handle gaming and proccessing ok, But i always notices my CPU at Idle would be utilizing 20-30% of its resources. This chip completely destroys anything I throw at it with ease and it does not even break a sweat. Not only is this chip great for gaming but other multitasking. If you like to game but do a lot of other things like streaming your games, video editing, or other work related solutions then you cant go wrong!

Amazon ad reflects false information about this combo on this product , it will not function properly on 16GBs of Ram , it needs at least 32 GBs to work .

Working Solid for me. Runs every game Ive played on Max settings

My son loves this

I have a Ryzen 1700X and was going to replace it with the 2700X, then move the 1700X into my streaming computer that has a Ryzen 3. On the second boot I got a Blue Screen of Death, at first didnt think anything of it. The BSoD just kept coming. Lots of program crashes. I had to put everything back. For me the change did not work out.
