Solid performance for a majority of games! I would recommend bumping up to the next tier if you want a smoother process for heavy games like COD. Definitely a good purchase otherwise.

Love it. A 25% increase in performance from a 3600. Do use a AIO and get idle temps of 32-35 and load when gaming 55-60. Worth the upgrade. Would recommend.

My Motherboard went out recently and CPU went with it, I got this one so far so good, It's not good as my ryzen 7 5700g but its decent, I'd say I pay'd a tiny bit over compared what i could've got, It's just all they had in store, However still good.

Increased performance 2x over my old R5 1600, will probably last me until 8th gen or later with AMD's track record.
