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

You dont get the box nor do you even get the correct product and dont even get me started on how I didnt receive a wraith prism.

I did take off one star for ease of use - as the cooler clamp is a bear and a half to install. I bought an aftermarket cooler to avoid this (I literally thought I would break my last motherboard while installing the cooler clamp bracket).

8c 16t 4.3ghz boost wraith prism cooler $160....

I love this CPU im by no means any kind of master pc builder and i havent overclocked anything before but this CPU and my mother board made it simple (cheating on overclock)

So its been over a year since I purchased this CPU. I have absolutely 0 Cons for it. It held up for this long and still going strong!

I never got the chance to use the cpu. I was given a dead cpu at least the return was simple

This processor was put into my new gaming/streaming rig. The processor has so much power I almost dont know what to do with it. It is super fast, and the 8 cores allow for quite a lot of multitasking. I am able to play a game, listen to music, run OBS and stream to Twitch with no issues whatsoever.

Got a free game haha and this is good enough for 4K p0rn.

Got this during Black Friday 2019 for $160. It was an unbeatable deal. I just looked at the R5 3600 like sorry buddy, I want you but lol...theyre making it difficult. I know they usually say the extra 2 cores work well for streaming so I did some twitch streaming @60fps 720p high video bitrate over wifi just to see how it handled it. Had several of my friends tune in including myself from another device. Stream was flawless. Meanwhile the game I was running was Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown. 1440p, completely maxed out graphics locked at 60fps. Didnt check the results without a cap while streaming but I know that when I was playing off stream and removed the cap I was getting like 170fps. I paired it up with a Sapphire Nitro+ 5700XT. Its a match made in heaven and the RGB of both the CPU and GPU are glorious.

Wicked fast. Good value for the money and this is coming from a devout Intel CPU advocate. I am now converted to AMD.
