Value/Price=Awesome!Pair this with a decent X470 Motherboard,16GB 3000MHz DDR4,a modern GPU and an AIO cooler-All set!Gaming,photo or video editing? A modern performer!

Great gaming processor. I didnt need the price of an intel, this processor gets decent numbers in benchmarking. It was a heck of a deal.

Ryzen 5 is so much faster than my previous AMD CPU. Overclocking is easy and simple to do if you have basic knowledge of overclocking and overall a great cpu to use.

Used this processor for my budget build, and it performs and met all my expectations for the current games out there today with a budget in mind.

2nd generation Ryzen has excellent performance. Paired with a 20xx series GPU is great combo. The 2600x is a really good budget alternative.

I had absoulutley no issues with installation and the stock fan does a fine cooling job. I have not attempted to overclock it though.

I gotta say that when I got the system up and running I considered giving my co-worker my old system while I took this one with the ryzen 5. The programs that took advantage of those extra cores just blazed though files. I can't wait for my system to die because I'm pretty sure I'll be going from intel back to AMD next round.

Didn’t know where to even start with the whole computer build but this part is perfect. Works great and is just a great deal.

The speed is outstanding and the processor was very easy to install. The sales associate was very knowledgeable and helpful.

This baby kicks donkey. I can say I upgraded from my previous i7 4790k I rocked for 3 years. I can get to just about the same frequency and have much 2more cores and 4 more threads. This donkey is amazing. Note, I’m on two 1070’s zotac in sli mode and omg this things a beast. It honky donks anything I throw at it. Get one ASAP ladies and gents. I guarantee you will love it. Then come back and leave your review so others enjoy Valhalla just as I do.

I was about to purchase AMD ryzen 5 1600 6 core 3.2 for 209.00 at time it was in stock at best buy I asked salesman to see what he thought ,he told me about the ryzen 5 2600 3.7 was so new it didn't even show up but assured me it would be even better and it was cheeper at 198.99 best buy but had to drop ship it no stores even had it yet,3 days later my first computer build and AMD 2600 running @ 4.1 right out of box thanks for the insider info.

runs well, so far no issues. great value cpu. great price for what your getting. great value.

Awesome processor for the price! Beats Intel hands down if we're talking price per performance.

Easy to install and set up. Easy to overclock. Works great running new games coming out.

Works well with all my games and for the price it's a great choice for your budget build.

This is a great processor for the price. Easy to use and a great value over the intel processors.

runs any program I throw at it and is very affordable. I would recommend this to anyone!

Was super easy to install, and was able to overclock it past 4.2Ghz with ease.

I used to foolishly use Intel only but decided to make my own computer and I can honestly say I'll never go back to Intel unless I absolutely needed to. Runs really well and at less power consumption than its competitor. On top of that the stock fan is actually really really good. So that saved some more money too. I would recommend ryzens to anyone building their own computer.

Since buying the Ryzen 5 2600 6core 12 thread processor, I have easily overclocked all cores to 4.0 ghz using a liquid cooling IO. Runs stable and cool with 3000mghz memory clocked at 3200mghz. Rips through games and has no problem maxing out graphical settings with the right graphics card. Not a bottleneck. At it's current pricing it cannot be beat on price to performance.
