While some users noted compatibility issues with older motherboards and power consumption concerns, these were less frequently mentioned than the positive feedback.

    Great upgrade from a 2700x paired with a 3070ti. Highly recommend unless you see a 5800x at $300

    Was able to price match. Even if they couldn't it would have still been a good deal. Works as intended. The CPU cooler that comes with it isn't as good as the older prism but that's not BestBuys fault.

    Nothing exciting to report. For my relatively limited needs, it's doing exactly what I need of it. Using the cooler that came in the box with it, without issues.

    Performs perfectly. Got lucky, and I was looking for headphones and I noticed this suddenly became available and got it. I just think for the price vs core count it’s a tad expensive but a great product for sure

    This is a great buy for someone starting a build or wanting to upgrade for a cheap modern gaming pc. It's not future proof but it gets the job done for now. (Can even handle Starfield!!) It starts to buckle while multi tasking with modern games running. Great value though, as I said.
