    Purchased 2 to build gaming rigs. Great low wattage processor. I normally build budget but decided to splurge for a little extra this time.

    It was terrible, I can barely logon to my computer with out crashing at 100% usage. Forget gaming it just doesn’t happen. Upon trying to return it Best Buy wouldn’t let me because I didn’t have the box.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Processor speed

    Cool CPU

    Cool cpu, meaning it literally runs cool. Using it with a EKWB 240mm AIO and usually see temps around 60c under load. Not to mention a TDP of 65 Watts. I think this cpu gets some undeserved hate. It not only has the benefits of temp and power but I got for $329. Using it with an 7800XT in a rig for gaming at 1440p. No complaints. One of the reviews said pass on the 9700X and wait for the 9800X3D. Which is good advice if you want a bad A CPU for nearly $500 that will stomp all challengers. If you are lucky enough to get one. But if you don't need the overkill, you can spend the $200 saving on a better GPU. Just depends on your needs everyone is different. This is my first AMD cpu in a long time, got tired of Intel changing sockets nearly every generation not to mention their other issues.

    One of, if not THE best gaming CPU for the price. Perfect for 2K or 4K gaming.
