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

I purchased this processor in a build for my daughter, she is going from an FX-8320 and the cost was the biggest factor in choosing Ryzen Zen+ over the new Ryzen Zen 2. This processor is a powerhouse for content creation, real world workloads, and of course gaming.

First AMD processor I have put in my system in a very long time, have been using Intel exclusively for the last several system upgrades. I am glad I made the switch. The first thing that I noticed was that multi-tasking is noticeably faster. I dont detect any noticeable difference in games as far as fps goes.

This was very easy to get up and running. Runs very cool but cant over clock it much even with water cooling. 4.1 GHz only when testing with prime 95 small FFT.

Huge improvement vs the 1700 paired with my gtx 1080 and it’s preforming even better

If you were a casual gamer like me this CPU does the job. It’s nothing overboard in the clock speed isn’t the fastest, however the cores are where it’s at. I definitely love the RGB fan as well that comes with the CPU to help keep it cool.

My chip does hit 4.35ghz single core for a very short time at over 1.5 v. And all core of 4.2ghz while under 55 60c Over that it will slow down to 4.1ghz and stay there all day long. This is with water cooling I never used the Wraith cooler.

It works perfectly with my Gigabyte B450M motherboard. The only strange issue was the method this was packaged (just inside another box without any other soft material to protect), I suppose no more was necessary

Can’t go wrong Processor does everything I need it to do perfect

Needed an upgrade to play some of the latest games. this was perfect. However Im not sure if it was supposed to come with the brackets the cpu latches onto or not, but it didnt come with them so I had to dig around my other computer parts to find some. Either way still works/ its doing well.

Absolutely worth every penny I can’t say it has disappointed me in the least
