Made a new computer using this product, RTX 2060 super, 2k monitor 144hz, RGB vengeance ram 3000, x570 motherboard. Runs games at 100-144 fps constantly, looking beautiful. Fully recommend. Pair with an SSD M.2 for lightning fast workbench activities, browsing, gaming, etc. Disclaimer: Do buy this product from Best Buy, do NOT buy it from Newegg. Found Newegg had slightly cheaper prices but got a DoA that, long story short, they will not refund or RMA. Best Buy is MUCH better when it comes to customer service and have not received any DoA from them in the years I've bought with them.

Lost some cores from my prev Ryzen 7 1700 but it makes up in IPC uplift to get better frames in games but not much gains in productivity. Lower temps/more efficient.
Pros: Lower watts/more efficient, IPC uplift compared to Ryzen 1, 2. Platform value & no need to switch if already on AMD motherboard.
Cons: Needs a good motherboard otherwise USB is glitchy. Not much of an upgrade compared to prev high end CPU's.

It's hard to beat this cpu, it does everything you would need a modern CPU to do and more. Highly likely to be the best one to get for the next few years.

Upgraded to Ryzen 5 3600 from an old i5 3570. The difference is night and day, I haven't even been able to push the CPU to 75% yet with medium-heavy games.
