Cpu barely has to try and my games run beautifully. Lots of head room for anything I need to do or play! Fantastic chip and boosts to 4.1ghz easily and reliably

I popped it in and haven't felt a regret yet! Easy to say though because I've been rocking my old computer for like 8 years so this upgrade was immediately impactful, but yeah, I'm happy!

I was lucky to get on launch day. This is my first PC build so I can't really compare to other CPUs, but mine easily boosts past 4.6 Mhz. Perfect for gaming with a few background programs.

CPU is really fast and great. Temps are low with a simple single fan Noctua air cooler. Coming from an i5-3570k, it's a huge upgrade.

Awesome. Still running strong after 1.5 years. Have not really needed more power then this, but that is obviously workload dependent.

Purchase for my nephews new build. Works as intended. Got a great deal but if you can I suggest go up to a 5800x or a 5900x for future proofing.

I was once again seeking the balance between high performance and high cost. Although this processor achieved the goal, I still preferred the Ryzen 7 8-Core.
