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

Did well on gaming

Replaced 1700x with 2700x moved 1700x to new build a nice smaller system.

love it!!!!!

Puts out alot of heat when OCd but other than that its great. That being said, do your research and make an informed purchase on your cpu.

Handles anything you can throw at it! Also, first processor Ive bought where the stock cooler works amazingly! and the colors are nice too! with the application it comes with its easy to set what colors you want. I have my colors set to correspond with CPU Temp. Colors change from greed to yellow to red based on temp

Recently decided to try AMD for the first time mostly because of my budget and a recommendation from a friend. I use to have an Intel Core i5 4690k @ 3.50GHZ and was looking to upgrade my rig but my budget was roughly $600.. Was going to originally buy an Intel Core i5-9600K 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor - That was priced at $250 but was told by multiple friends that the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X is equivalent to an Intel Core i7 and some online posts have said that the performance on the Ryzen 7 is actually better - And all for the price of $250 the same price as the Intel i5 I was going to buy..

Great value! Excellent performance for a really good price. I like the led fan so much. This processor is all you need to do everything.

So before I used to have an intel 4690k. Yes I know its an old CPU, but when I upgraded to this Chip....MY GOD! It felt so good to be able to play VR, have my streaming software running and live, having chat windows open, task manager, and an oculus mirror program so my stream could see my perspective. My Old CPU would be around 99% usage, but now my 2700x runs around like 25-30% usage. Like my god! I love how free I feel with this east in my rig. Now I can swirl my tap water and feel fancy as I enjoy a good ol gaming session.

I got this while it was on sale so it was a super good deal especially because it comes with a good stock cooler, it performs extremely well and haven’t run into any bottlenecks/slowing down in games

Amazing cpu
