AMD Ryzen 5 2600X Processor with Wraith Spire Cooler - YD260XBCAFBOX

After hooking this up and all my computer components, this would not post. After taking it to a local technician, he had said my CPU was no good. I have since upgraded to a newer version of Ryzen and had better luck.

Good price, had to buy RGB Cooler to match the board. Overall very satisfied with AMD and thier cost aposed to Intels I7. On board graphics would have been nice didnt notice it did not have when buying but able run with a very outdated card untill I picked up a new one for this build.

The 2600x is a very good processor that comes with a good cooler. I recommend it if you don’t plan on buying a third party cooler, or don’t plan on overclocking. If you do plan on overclocking, then buy a 2600, or another processor but without the letters at the end.

No problems with processor so far and have had it for a month. Everything runs smooth and I dont hear the stock cooler that came with it. The only problem I have is that I did not receive the game code that was promised with the processor.

This was a much needed upgrade. Was looking at my budget and contemplated what parts to get. Had considered the Ryzen 7 2700x but settle on this guy to save the extra bucks to get a proper GPU. To be honest, this CPU seemed to be over kill. Im mostly playing Guildwars2 and Fallout 4, and paired with a RX590 GPU, this CPU is resting comfortably at 20% to 50% usage most of the time without breaking a sweat and still delivering a solid 60 fps.

I used an air cooler I already had as I have a blue light theme in my case. The cpu I had previously was a i7 7th gen and I felt like it was bottle necking with my 1070ti GPU when trying to use my Oculus Rift. I couldnt use supers ampling and had to close out of all my running apps to not have stuttering in high demand VR games. With this cpu I have the clock set in the BIOS to 4.0ghz. I have noticed a night and day difference in my games. Right now I have super sampling at 1.3. I dont have to close out running applications, and the stuttering in games like Robo Recall, & Beat Saber is gone. I havent had an AMD cpu in several years, but glad I decided to give this a try. Running Assassins Creed Odyssey at highest video settings, the temp didnt go about 47c.

i love the performance and was easyaliy able to get a stable overclock of 4ghz

Top notch performance for a low price! What else can I say?

great affordable multitasking CPU

This was to make my first AMD build. The chip installed easily, runs fast, and the stock cooler works without issue. Paired this with:
