    Planned on getting a Ryzen for my next build but reading the reviews and the fact that this has integrated graphics convinced me otherwise. System booted with no issues and we are having fun. Definitely cannot go wrong with this processor.

    I built a workstation PC, and while this CPU can typically keep up, multitasking can sometimes cause awful latency problems. If you plan on building a 3D rendering workstation, go for the 12900K at least.
