AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler

A truly nice upgrade CPU!

Lo pedi desde chile llego en menos tiempo del que se esperaba y en perfectas condiciones en caja de amazon, con esta placa madre GIGABYTE B550M DS3H y todo bien no necesitas actualizar bios ni nada

This CPU was chosen for my new PC build. This replaced an older PC with dual westmere xeons. Like night and day the difference. Gaming was a vast improvement with much improved consistent frame rates. The only thing i will say is the cooler installation which comes with the CPU is fiddly to install unlike the older intel ones, if you have installed older AMD chips with the older cooler then this should be fine but first time builders might want to take note. This comes in a well packaged box with the CPU visible on a transparent cut out on one side of the box. The CPU is well packaged with the Cooler already having thermal compound applied. Installation of the CPU into an AM4 motherboard is a breeze and there are instructions which come in the box to help. A great product from AMD, great for gamers and good value for the money for future usage. Well worth the purchase.

I didnt buy a different heatsink. The stock heatsink looks great and is adequate for moderate overclocking. I was researching and youtube reviewers were saying the stock solution was within a degree or two Celsius of an AIO cooler. I spent the money I would have spent on an AIO cooler for a Sebrent 1 Gig. PCIe 4.0 harddrive.

For reference to this review, I previously own a Ryzen 7 2700x. Why did I make such a small upgrade with little performance boost: 2 reasons.

AMD is the most solid option in 2019 for price/performance and this chip is gaming monster. I need not say more, you wont regret your decision if you pick it up.

Great CPU, good value for money.

Was long overdue for an upgrade on my i7-4790k Asus Z97pro workstation and couldnt wait until the July release so I built a new Fractal R5 box with an Asus Prime X470 Pro MB and plugged in a Ryzen 5 2600 as a placeholder until the 3700x came out. The new 3700x is plugged in now and I couldnt be happier. I coupled this chip with 32gb of 3000 C15 memory, 1gb SSD, and 12tb of WD spinners for storage of all my photos. Mostly running Lightroom and Photoshop but this chip QUICKLY chews through everything I throw at it. I dont game on it so I cant comment on that aspect, but its very stable on my X470 board. Its quirky compared to older chips....spikey voltage and temps, and the Wraith prism fan spins up quite a bit (Ill fix that with an adjusted fan profile soon) but Im just relaxing and enjoying it rather than worrying about voltage and temps.....all are within spec. DO NOT PAY MORE THAN MSRP!!!

Me parece un procesador eficiente y rápido a una relación calidad precio aceptable

Compared to the 2600x, the 3700x I am getting better FPS
