    Works very well, pairing it with a B570 Mobo you can get the most out it and doesn't have that much of a power consumption.

    We got this for my son's new computer, which we built for college. The processor is fast and power efficient. My only complaint is that for to pay "shortages", it was difficult to purchase on the BB website and was a bit pricey. At the time, however, it was still the best value for a 6 core processor.
