Pros

My only complaint has nothing to do with this item. It’s a great product from a leading brand that delivers on its promises.

It runs flawlessly on windows 11 and plays flawlessly with my rtx 3060ti. Can run almost everything.

The 5600x is an excellent budget choice that will function well on any am4+ socket mobo. I use this cpu for both gaming and web development, and it has met all my needs. No bottleneck under 3090 unless at 1080, 1440p/ 4k is your best range. Using rade...  Read More

This is a fantastic bang-for-your-buck cpu that you probably wont have to replace in the next 5 years. It runs great and stays relatively cool with the out of box fan. For some reason when installation m. Used a deep cool cpu cooler.

Quality


Very happy with the service and the product.

The price did fluctuate quite a bit on amazon, from $153 to $205.

Competitiveness


 went from a ryzen 5 2600, biostar 240mah and 8 gigs of bleh ram.


Had a first generation ryzen and it was time to upgrade.


My issue is with myself, in not having enough money to get the more powerful 5800 or 5950 ryzen processors.


If you want to use this cpu for games more demanding than roblox you will want to pick up a better cooler.
