    Great CPU for any system. It was able to hold it's own even when using my 4080. Even better for lower end builds.

    Excellent entry level processor for gaming. Low power usage, runs cooler than a lot of the bigger ones. Good clock speed without un-used cores and heat when gaming.

    Integrated graphics, AM5, and 5.3 GHz clock speed. Not too much more you could ask for. Works great on the graphics side while I wait on my GPU.

    Great budget CPU. More than enough to play most titles, without it being the bottleneck. Not the best performance, but it's still excellent for the price

    As simple as it is, I slapped this bad boy into my motherboard. Built my pc, and everything runs great! No stuttering or overheating, nor bent pins! So this cpu was well worth the purchase.

    Can run a bit hot at times, but don’t be worried.

    Scared me a bit when the temps briefly pushed up to 95c installing software, but apparently that’s the norm for this series of processor and it is still functioning as intended even at those temps. Just keep that in mind when purchasing. Outside of that, it’s been very solid for me.
