Great CPU for the price AM5
Great CPU temperatures do run high as long as you have a good liquid cooler you will be all set high demanding games runs around 70°C with the fans on performance

Best Jack of All Trades CPU!
Upgraded from an i7 9700F from this pre-build PC to this blazing fast CPU for gaming. Overall, I love this CPU, since it is power efficient, brings out amazing gaming performance and it is future proof. I would definitely recommend you wait for a sale and you would definitely be satisfied if you get a good b650 motherboard (my motherboard is MSI b650 Tomahawk WiFi).
