    Great CPU. It is able to hit 4.5 gigz with the recent bios update. I water cooled my system and it stays cool, just lower the voltage a bit.

    Background (nothing to do with the product, some background info/rant): I bought a Mini itx B550 motherboard to build a new computer, not realizing that the B550 Chipset does not support the 3400G APUs (I don't know if this varies between motherboard brands but AMD does not officially support the 3400G with that chipset, X570 chipset DOES support them). Bad decision in my opinion since 4th gen APUS have not been released to replace them (they will get released but as of writing this, there is no date). Product: Went to Bestbuy and was happy they stock these so I could get my computer working (had to buy a video card also). Like other AMD cpus I have used, it works great and comes with a colorful CPU fan and wires to attach it to a USB 2 header and JRainbow connector (at least that it what it is called on my motherboard).

    I have been a long time AMD fan because of the price point and recently came back for intel to try these new chipsets. I work in CAD so I was more interested in Cores, but I have to admit, this chipset is great for gaming as well.

    Not a computer whiz or anything like that. Bought this for my rebuild as I gave my son my Ryzen 5. I can’t honestly say I notice a huge difference due to being computer stupid but it does seem as though my pc is running faster now

    This processor is everything people say it is. Fast, efficient and reliable. Have had it up and running for nearly 3 weeks. Not a single problem! Even the included heat sink and fan set up works well. What's not to like!

    I wasn't sure if I would really be able to notice a difference upgrading from my 2700x but I certainly did. The 3800x is a beast. Definitely worth the upgrade over my 2700x.

    It is very nice CPU but has less value per price than 3700x. If you want something cheaper with monster performance, I recommend 3700X

    I upgraded from a Intel i7 7700K to AMD's Ryzen 7 3800X and It's been a great move for me. Less frame rate drops in games and blazing desktop performance. NO REGRETS.

    Great CPU for doing heavier workloads like editing videos or 3d rendering or streaming. But I would not recommend for just simple gaming use.
