    monstrous gaming and creativity performance. I don't like the fact that it doesn't come with a cooler but this is standard these days in all AMD R7/R9 / Intel CPUs i5/i7/i9

    I bought this to replace the same one that croaked, and it worked just as good. Maybe not the absolute best processor money can buy, but it held up for quite a few years.

    [Employee of bestbuy] It's definitely a good buy at %50 off. If you're still using your am4 motherboard, consider upgrading to this. Amazing in games and productivity

    Upgraded from a 3700x to get a bit more CPU power for content creation and I couldn't be any less than thrilled. Runs cool and quiet with the stock wraith cooler.
