Good performance for the cost, especially for gaming.

Did what i hoped it would do. Had 5600x but wanted something stronger. Moved from AM4 to AM5, to future proof a little. Do Iracing and Msfs 2024 primarily. Using same gpu, fps picked up some, but what impressed me more was on how smooth computer ran, using my Quest 3. Lets see what the future holds.

The gaming performance of this cpu is epic - not on all titles - but many. For productivity workflows, it's not the fastest per thread performance but since it has 8 cores, it will do great in mostly everything. So this is a no-brainer win: the best at gaming and really good at everything else. This is the first AM5 socket CPU so there should be loads of future options in this platform.
My modest build of Gigabyte Aorus Elite AX motherboard, Trident neo 32gb ddr5 6000-cl30, Samsung pro 990 and used RTX3080 got in PerformanceTest's 99th percentile for overall performance.
couldnt be more happy

Best processor ever for gaming and productivity. I also use it for work, rendering videos, and playing games, and I haven’t had a single problem. For the price, it’s unbeatable.

I had recently upgraded to a 4080 graphics card and was using an i7-11700k. I was noticing stutters and GPU utilization not maxing out in quite a few games so I decided to switch to an AM5 platform. The difference with this CPU was night and day and I am no longer seeing the stutters and obviously the GPU is being fully optimized now. This is among, if not the best, CPU for gaming that you can get right now.

I've been an Intel person for my life. I've been interested and curious about AMD but was always so worried about the temperatures. Well Its probably the BEST in the Ryzen 7 and i7 territory. Yes there's cheaper and yes there's a better one, but unless you're needed the top this is the top!
I did a lot of research over months and found this was so highly recommended over every Ryzen 5/7 and i5/i7. Unless you need a Ryzen 9 or i9 this is the no brainer!
