    Super impressed. Ryzen 3 series brought me back to AMD. I have this and a Ryzen 9 3900, and I am so happy to be able to rock and AMD again. Competition is good!

    I matched this up with an ASUS - TUF GAMING X570-PLUS motherboard. Benchmarks put the speed in the 99th percentile! No overheating either.

    Great budget yet performing GPU. It meets the need of our build, and has been very stable since installed. Highly recommended. Bestbuy delivery is fast as well.

    This is a really good mid range chipset that goes well with most gaming rigs. On top of that it comes with its own cooler and has a decent overclocking speed.

    Ryzen did it again. This is an awesome processor. I paired this with the new Redeon 5700XT and this keeps up with the GPU just fine.

    Went first for a Ryzen 3, but soon upgraded to the 5. Definitely worth the small additional cost. Go straight for the 5.

    Although I was worried something would go wrong it was actually really easy to install. I did make a mistake and place the fan the wrong way but I was able to fix it. Everything is running great and I have not had any issues with the temperature. At one point I did think I completely broke it by placing the fan wrong I actually thought it was glued together in the wrong spot because of my mistake. Make sure you're paying close attention to positioning if this is your first time too!

    Coming from an fx 6300 this is a huge upgrade. Games run butter smooth with no stuttering. My fx 6300 bottlenecked the heck out of 970 gtx. That problem is now no more.
