    Excellent CPU! This is paired with 7800xt and is great for 1440p gaming on ultra. It only uses 65w max (TDP) on stock settings so it stays cool and performs very well. Yes the X3D CPUs are superior but this one holds it's own for 1440p gaming.

    Good processor for the price. This processor has a built in GPU, while not good enough for gaming will get you up and running just fine.

    Amazing CPU. The biggest thing about this particular processor is the 65W TDP (105W TDP overclocked) power consumption, akin to the power consumption of the Intel 3rd Gen Core i7 3770K that was replaced from circa 2012.

    This is a great CPU for the money, but turn on PBO to get the best out of it. Out of the box, the power setting is basically an ECO setting, and gimps the CPU.
