    This cpu is perfect for my 1070 ti and never gets bottleneck. But there is one problem, it gets super hot while playing games like Warzone and Far cry five sometimes into 90 c with the stock cooler.

    An excellent processor that has not been maxed out in any of my uses nor on how much a run on it. It has good power. Do watch how you install the fan that comes with it so you do not block any of your memory slots.
