I just replaced an old i7 3770 with this beast. Even without overclocking it is an ultra upgrade from my previous built. Not sure if I wouyld have waited for the 3rd gen but I am so happy with the relation between cost/performance/capabilities of this processor. It's been a long time since I built a pc with an AMD processor (Athlon I believe) and this is a very powerful mainstream desktop for me.

Fast, cool, inexpensive, and very capable. Recommended.

Great value for the money. In gaming, same performance as the 2700x, for $100 less. Easier to setup higher quality streams than with any current gen (coffee lake at this time) Intel i5. If you heavily multi-task, render, or stream a lot (rather than once in awhile), I would recommend the 2700x over it
