Customer Ratings & Reviews

Most high-end CPU I have ever bought. It was a massive upgrade from my i5 6600k that was OC. Currently, my GPU is an RX 580 8GB so it is bottlenecking it pretty decently on most things but when it comes to CPU intensive games like csgo this gave me a huge fps/smoothness boost. It runs every map amazingly smooth at stock speed with OC ram to 3200 mhz. I also played around on some open-world games like the witcher 3 and was able to run it smoothly on max settings at 1440p on the main game. DLC was a bit different. Also runs GTA V very smoothly with the RX 580. Shout out to best buy for making it much easier to buy than Newegg and Amazon. If you wanna beat the bots definitely get this at Best Buy.

Very easy installation, decent processor. Not the fastest in the industry, but very capable of all modern games.

Great processor. Have been using Ryzens for 4 years now. Good value to performance.

Powerful CPU, with plenty of performance. Easy to install, and comes with the wraith CPU cooler. Decent cooler unless you are trying to overclock.

Very budget friendly cpu. Been having this for about a few months now and i love it so far, no problems and works really well.

So far so good - a gigantic performance jump for a great price. Cooler is a bit louder than my last one, but for how low profile it is works great

Cost to performance is amazing recommend to anyone looking for a budget option

AMD's newest processor is an excellent value for the money. I use this mostly for gaming and it destroys my old 2700x in terms of performance.

A huge jump from a 2600x in some games. Honestly for the money if your want to game and don't have alot of overhead on background tasks this is the best gaming cpu for the money.

Easy setup, needed a little update for my station so pretty good for the price i got it for!

I have not had any problems or major performance tanks with this processor, and I can fairly say that it is one of if not the best bang for buck processor on the market.

Purchased this for a small micro atx build out for my brother using an Aorus B550M MicroATX motherboard. Using a Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 low profile cooler, the 5600x boosted to 4.6ghz all core and max temps never exceeded 80 under load with CB20 and scored a very respectable 4381 beating the 4114 my heavily overclocked 5.3ghz 8086k right out of the box with no tweaks or overclocks using the exact same 3200 B-Die Dual Rank 2x8GB memory. I won't be overclocking it or tweaking it upward since this is meant for quiet noise, lower thermals in a more compact case but wow....the performance is excellent. I can just imagine this chip with a larger air cooler or under water.

Great inexpensive CPU. If you pear all your parts correctly you will have a great system.

Awesome processor. Fits the sweet spot in terms of value to performance. Easy install. This is the one to get if you're a new PC builder or you are a hobbyist. Get it!

Really good processor really good for gaming very easy install perfect for whatever you need to go

Great loved it help me play other games ive been wanting along with a good performance boost to going from a ryzen 3 to this night and day difference

Good chip for its value. If call of duty is one of your main games, I wouldn’t recommend getting an AMD chip thought because for some reason call of duty games don’t get alone with AMD chips. Even tho this chip is a severe upgrade from what I had before, when I get on call of duty it’s freezing like crazy and I have extreme packet loss most of the time. Works perfectly otherwise.

Great cpu at this price point I m running it with a Radeon 6750xt and it works great with no bottlenecking.

Running storng for years any game ive thrown at it i paired it with a 3080.

Runs much better than my Ryzen 7 2700x. Games increased by 20 fps or more depending on the title. Starfield now stays around 100fps in New Atlantis and Akila City when they used to be 40-60fps. Minecraft runs like a beast
