    This is my first AMD build and I gotta say, this faster than I thought it would be. Especially since I'm using a MSI B450 board (be sure to update the mobo or get one that already upgrade). Great processor for gaming and I also use it for some editing. Package also came with a cooler.

    I originally bought this for a server I was putting together as it was on sale for $200. Due to some motherboard shenanigans, I wound up moving my 2700x from my workstation to the server and using this in my main PC. I'd be lying if i said I've experienced a huge difference performance between the two. This is a great chip if you can get it, especially at the price point.

    This thing is beast mode!. I dont even have to overclock it it will kick butt in all the games I throw at it and even crunches data when working on videos with no problems. Paired this with 16 gb of DDR4 corsair vengeance memory and a RTX 2070 super and there was no bottleneck. Turned my rig into a UFO class gaming station/desktop pc on user benchmark. Recommend 5 out of 5 gas giants.

    Excellent price, quick delivery, and a great cpu. Theres a reason this is one of the most popular cups on the market today. And with AMD recently adding further support for it the CPU has only gotten better. It responds much better than gen 1 and 2 ryzens. Was surprised to see it actually score better than my 1800x ryzen which is an 8 core. Well worth the money!

    Got the parts I needed for a great deal. Best Buy has the exactly what I wanted for the lowest price of anyone. The parts arrived within 3 days from the time I ordered them. The only part I'm still hoping to be able to pick up from them is my graphics card. An Nvidia 3060ti Founders Edition. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time beating the bots to the chase.
