Customer Ratings & Reviews

fast cpu, runs a little hotter than intel, took some getting used to but with a good 3 fan liquid cooler playing games that use alot of cpu temps stay right around 78 degrees celcius, playing games on ultra settings

Absolutely fantastic CPU. Purchased exclusively for gaming, its been a massive uplift from an Intel 9900K, particularly in titles like Spiderman Remastered and Cyberpunk 2077. Easy to install, the new AM5 platform was very smooth to get up and running. Hardware Unboxed has an awesome video review of this chip, and all my experiences line up with it. If all you're going to do is game, the 7700x matches and in some cases exceeds the 7950x in fps and 1% lows, akd that chip is $300 more. Perfect gaming card for this generation of AMD CPUs.

I upgraded a few months ago to the 7700x, partly for programming and partly for gaming. In both uses, I have seen immense improvements on my previous CPU. I have had some issues with driver support, but later had them fixed with simple updates.

I’ve been very happy with the Ryzen 7 7700X. It’s fast, responsive, and handles gaming and multitasking extremely well. Games run smoothly, and I can have multiple programs open without noticing any slowdown. Installation was straightforward with my AM5 motherboard, and the performance has been reliable so far. It does run fairly warm under heavier loads, so I’d recommend pairing it with a good CPU cooler. Overall, this is a powerful processor and a great choice for a gaming PC. Definitely worth the upgrade, and I’d recommend it.

This unit is great fit for my gaming pc that I have build this works like a horse never sweats

This processor is a power house and will consistently run at 5.5ghz under load. Temps have been a bit higher then previous series, but are very quick to drop down to what you’d expect in idle. Make sure bios is updated with the mobo you pick but amazing performance overall.

This was a part of a major upgrade for me coming from an am4 5800xt and to get to the point - absolutely zeo regrets! This cpu performed much further than my expectations causing my poor gpu (4060 ti) to bottleneck while playing Warzone. My next upgrade will be a 5070 which should pair fairly well. Although many can argue the obvious which there is plenty better amd cpu's etc... This one will do, promise you its no slouch! For most people it will do more than suffice.

Amazing AMD processor at a great price. Best Buy always has great prices, and even if they don't, their price match policy is amazing!

Easy install and runs perfectly hitting the 5.4ghz easily, only thing to watch out for is you need a good cpu cooler, it gets toasty

[Employee of bestbuy] I've been using this CPU for nearly a year at this point and its a wonderful little beast. Coming from an intel i7-11700k, overall she performs better and runs a bit cooler than my old CPU whenever I'm doing anything whether that's productivity or gaming. Highly recommend it at either its full price or on sale.

Very hot, need additional cooling, work great, recommend

Fast processor, easy to install and overclock. Can run multiple processes

I originally wanted to hold out for the 3D cache versions of these chips but honestly I don't regret just sticking with this. As far as gaming goes, it's a little better than the 5800x3D and maybe 15% worse in framerate than the 7800x3D, but really not much different for any other tasks. If gaming is your primary goal, get the 7800x3D. Despite only being 8 cores, this thing still rips through code compilation and other development tasks, as well as audio production. Pair this up with a set of RAM that can XMP up to or past 6ghz and your system will fly. Like many others, I chose to undervolt the CPU and managed to get a -25 PBO curve while limiting the wattage to about 110,000. That with my 360mm all in one cooler my system is pretty cool, quiet, and very fast.

Really great cpu. It works as good or better than my 7800x3d pc build. This cpu is a power house and would use it again.

i have this cpu paired with my RTX 9060XT 16gb and it gives great performance and stable gaming.

Stellar performance. This was a pretty big upgrade for me but with the games I play, content creation I do and general PC user life I have had zero issues at all. Would buy all over again

This processor is the best bang for your buck. Man handles Battlefield 6 if that is of any concern. I've been running it for over a month on my new PC build, got everything from bestbuy in store and it is actually a beast.

Amazing product, liked it so much we bought another for a 2nd build

This thing is fast, and very powerful. Great for basically anything you want to do. Runs hot but thats by design.

I love it! It still working after years of use! Will buy if i get another build!
