Great product, assembled in the USA!
Nobody mentions this - it's at least in part made in the USA! Besides the various fabs across the states (OR, NM, others), the assembly of key components is done in the new Foveros fab is here in New Mexico! Reviewers are negative on this product, however. I'll concede two points. 1-Other products as of Nov. 2024 are better value. I'll pay a small premium to support a mild market pressure for local jobs, but if that's not you, hold out for a sale. 2-Upgradability. I had my last motherboard for 9 years (1st gen Ryzen). Upgrading this chip may limit options for upgrades. It's not clear if there will be future products that will fit in the motherboard you're about to buy for this chip. If so, the only thing available is a used / discounted 285k for a small bump (4-5% increase over this chip).
