Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Our 13 year old is wanting to build his own PC. So, we are trying to buy the components he needs to surprise him for Christmas and Best Buy is our go-to store for many things. I did the online order and picked it up the next day curbside. It was so easy and hassle free!! Thank you Best Buy employees!!

Great Processor
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Really great processor it doubled the cores of my old ryzen 5 1400 and was a lot less picky with ram was able to use the xmp of the ram with no issue the price was good on cyber monday and black Friday. A pro tip though you can use the 3 pin usb included cable on the prism cooler to set the colors you want on the rgb once u install the software when u download the cooler master software the prism cooler will remember what you set even if u unplug the cable after then u can remove the cable and free up your use header on your motherboard to use for an actual usb front panel again or for whatever else your system needs.

Jumping from a 5 to 7.... WOW
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I went from the Ryzen 5 2600 to this Ryzen 7 3700x and wow... I’m speechless. Everything is way faster. Clicking from window to window now and streaming is a breeze. I stream and play heavy load games and still maintain 150-170 FPS with my 3060 Ti. I would recommend this to anyone looking to upgrade without wanting to break the bank.

First time and build and went smooth
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I've built PCs with Intel CPUs but this was first and build. Easy and smooth. No issues with any compatibility. I used msi x570 motherboard, Kingston hyperx fury ram 2666, and evga rtx2060. Icing on the cake was the awesome wraith cooler. Intel coolers are crap, but wraith prism is amazing.

It's a CPU
|Posted .Owned for 3 months when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5It's great! You are going to need it, so just get it. It was definitely, an upgrade from my previous computer. I had fun building my own desktop and most of the parts I bought them from Best Buy because they are trustworthy and the employees are always there if you need any advice.

Sick cooler RGB
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I had to exchange this processor for a new one, since the first one I received had problems with the cooler RGB. The second one I received, though, works like a charm and looks even better! Make sure you download the Wraith Prism software after you install it so you can control the RGB and you won't regret the purchase. Definitely recommended!

Feels good man.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Put this in a Dan A4 case, runs no more than 80c after 20min of Prime95 even in that extremely cooling restricted environment. The performance vs price reminds me of the old 2600+ days when AMD was laughing at Intel. Huzzah!

Love this CPU. But im waiting for BIOS update
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality4 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I love this CPU. Its does what I need it to such as gaming and streaming as well as recording at the same time, while running a minecraft server. Its a great work house. I give it only 4 stars because it does not hit advertised boost clock speeds. AMD has since recognized the issue and will be releasing BIOS updates. If it is fixed will gladly give 5 stars. Note I am on am Asrock x470 board.

What experts are saying
Q: Questionwhat is a good motherboard for the ryzen 7 3700x
Asked by jorge.
- A:Answer The Asus Tuf Gaming X570 is a highly rated, fantastic motherboard for the price with great VRM and PCIe 4.0. If your more budget minded, then the MSI B450 Tomahawk Max is a great choice with PCIe 3.0. Either way, make sure your RAM is fast speed, 3200 or greater, to take full advantage of that 3700x 8 core 16 threads.

Q: QuestionIs this graphics card able to show ray tracing from my RTX 2070 Super? Or would it hold it back?
Asked by STM24.
- A:Answer The Ryzen 7 3700x is not a graphics card like the 2070 super is, it is a processor(CPU). The 2070 super is the part that handles ray tracing, and the 3700x processor would not hold the 2070 super back in anyway.
