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

So far no issues overclocking or in general. paired with a crosshair hero 7. stable at 4.2ghz and RAM is 3200mhz factory and OCd to 3466mhz. would recommend as an alternative to pricey intel CPUs of same tier. just do the research and get to know your bios. ryzen has lots of features and will probably not recognize RAM at the intended speed without some adjustments.

Gotta give it to AMD this CPU is bang for your buck and performance, i have no complains and i tested the wraith cooler before i went water-cooled, let me tell you this Air cooler did its job on cooling. I hit no more than 64c on max. I removed the thermal paste put Grizzly was on 56- 58c on gaming for hours. RGB on this thing looks awesome.

Easy to install

I love the Ryzen 7. So fast and it’s perfect :)

I got this processor over the 3600 because I run several VMs at the same time on my PC. Its great for multitasking like that, as well as gaming. If you need more than just a gaming or stream machine than I would recommend this Processor.

I used it with Gigabyte B450 for a year. It works well.

This is for the quick Amazon delivery system. Love it.

Came as advertised, with chip and thermal paste on cpu fan. Love the RGB on the cooler

Ehh. Got it for a steal. $170. I mean, it is a good sale, but if there was no sale (and it was sold for ~$300) I might have a different opinion. Runs most things I throw at it with no problems. Bottlenecked by RAM and Graphics Card. Unable to see full potential of CPU. Havent done any process-heavy... processing (good word choice) like video editing.
