    Pretty solid choice. Too bad it does not support the Pcie 4 format which is really what makes a difference when loading saved games. Amd has won this round.

    It's a pretty decent cpu, it's a bit hard to make a review for this, but it does what it is suppose to and does it fast. The only negative I have for this is that, it stats up to 5.2Ghz, which word be single core, but I have never once seen 5.2Ghz no matter how I test it. I've tried many single core performance test and the highest clock I've seen was maybe 4.9-5Ghz and that's running at 1.44-1.5v, which is an insane amount of voltage and that is on complete stock motherboard settings, it sucks that I need overclock and undervolt my chip just to even see 5.2Ghz.

    I’m not disappointed in the slightest, I’m glad I spent the money to get one of best processors out there, be sure for you new builders out there to get 16gb ram 3200mhz or higher to take full advantage of the processor cores.
