Customer Ratings & Reviews

I honestly would have gone to a higher specced cpu but for the price and the face my system died i could not refuse this cpu and motherboard upgrade especially since i was on am4 at the time. I am water cooled so it keeps the temps down and unlocking the 105W mode gave it another 11% performance boost!

Fantastic cpu hands down, Better performance better single core slightly higher power usage but phenomenal. If your a hardcore gamer this is as good as 3D cache cpus but 4% difference in latency which is not measurable to eyes take the leap. A great choice for those who can’t reach a 3D cpu in stock the difference is so small I’d recommend this instead

This is an amazing peace of work, over kill for me but runs games like star citizen while streaming my shows and discord

Great cpu for the price, very glad i got it, then upgraded from it.

Super fast one of the best on the market best price around can never go wrong with Best Buy

I know the reviews are not spectacular but I feel this cpu is being overlooked. It is a very servicable cpu. Works well and I don’t have any problems!

Was worried from reviews online, but coming from a R7 3700X, WOW. What an improvement. My framerate has doubled on average in most games using my 4070. I did not realize my old CPU was bottlenecking me so hard. And this CPU uses way less energy to get the performance as well. Win win.

Awesome Chip for everyday use, its fst, reliable and easy to install.

Works as it should and in a fair price range. I havent had any issues.

Great eight core cpu. Very efficient and runs very cool.

Absolutely amazing performances while playing modded minecraft!

Amazing cpu! Was hesitant between this and a older one and Best Buy employees helped me to the right choice. Blazing fast and you can definitely feel the difference in power consumption

I just upgraded the majority of my computer, motherboard, processor and gpu. This was my first time building because my previous build was gifted to me. This processor was easy to install (with guided help). I was so stressed out about messing up and ruining the whole computer. It turned out great and now my games load in so fast!

Upgrading my pc I used to use R5 2600 and this was so much better then what I’m used to paired it with my 5070 I just got pc is solid now

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.

Performance well for the cost. A little faster than i7-12700k at single core tasks. Given its paired with DDR5 ram vs i7 normally with DDR4 it actually outperforms in most all cases.

This CPU has great performance. It is quick on daily tasks and even games at a high level. Best Buy also price matched a competitor so it was an even better deal.

This CPU is excellent, I was kinda sad when I wasn’t able to get the 7800x3d. But I couldn’t care less anymore, this CPU works amazingly, i haven’t even gone about 70% use while gaming. Highly recommend if you want a powerful gaming pc

if you get this for the right amount, it seems like a really good value. i don't need the crazy X3D version, and the ryzen 5 from series is really affordable, but i feel like this should be more future proof.

I Purchased this processor to build a PC for processing/editing screen recordings of news broadcasts. it has performed as expected.
