AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler - YD270XBGAFBOX

I was on the fence between an AMD and an Intel. After watching countless YouTube videos on budget builds and high-end builds I came to the conclusion that AMD is the all-out winner. I was interested in the Intel coffee Lake 8700 k but I settled on the ryzen 7 and Im Not Looking Back.

I recently went team red, and am super happy with the results. I have been using an older Intel chip (4790k) and while it wasnt a slouch by any means, it was still showing its age. I was tied to DDR3 RAM and I do dabble in content creation and gaming/streaming. Trying to run everything all together caused some noticeable slowdowns/stutters. I paired this chip with an Asus ROG STRIX X470 board and 16 GB of DDR4 from Corsair. I do have an AIO cooler that I chose to reuse and as such I left the wraith cooler that was included in the box. It does however appear to be a pretty beefy cooler, and not just a basic fan like you would get with an Intel chip. Pay attention to the orientation of the chip before installation, there should be a gold triangle on the corner that coincides with a mark on the board socket. This seems to be where most new builders accidentally damage a pin and you dont want that. Speed wise I saw an immediate jump in terms of how fast rendering happened, and putting load on the chip was like slicing warm butter. Smooth, easily spreadable and loaded with delicious goodness. Benchmarking showed a definite increase in the multicore score compared to my 4790k which is great. I wish I had saved a screencap of each but that didnt occur to me until after I had done the AMD chip. I havent dabbled in OC this chip yet, I want to do some research to determine the best route to go but I hear it clocks well and can get some great speeds out of it. Overall I am glad I got this, I could have waited for GEN3 Ryzen but I dont mind. I feel like all the bugs got worked out here.

Outperforms Old Xeons in double CPU configuration. Nice for gaming. Awesome for rendering (of course not as good as a Threadripper).

Lo compré con descuento, la caja llego en perfecto estado, instalación facil y ha mejorado la calidada de los videojuegos

I just finalized my new PC build using the AMD Ryzen 2700x with the goal of photo and video editing. I also considered the Intel i7 8700k which slightly higher single core score, whereas the 2700X beats it at multi core performance. I mostly use Photoshop, Lightroom CC classic and some other photo editing software suites and while they are not yet fully optimized for multi core operation, I’m better prepared for the future with the 2700X. I use this CPU together with the MSI x470 gaming plus motherboard and it runs without any issues. With the fan that comes with this CPU and without any over cloxking, the standby temperature of the CPU is around 31C which steps up to just below 50F under load. Since I’m not using this system for gaming, I do not really need forced water cooling. The system runs quiet and fast. The attached photo shows that the CPU fan that comes with this CPU has multiple colors which is nice.

although this CPU was powerful at the time of its release in 2018. I just dont get it why would spend 450$ on a CPU that original MSRP was 289$? while you can buy a Ryzen 5600x for 289$.

This product works however, if you just upgraded to it from something like R3 2200 cpu, and you use a program like speccy to check the temps. Youll get tempts around 100Celcius but thats just an error on their part, so use something like a Ryzen master or HWmonitor instead. Both have nearly the same tempts.

Awesome processor. If you are on this page reading reviews then you already know all about this processors and there is no need to go over all the specs. Just get it.

I dont know whats more appalling, my socks and sandals or the poor packaging for my processor. I normally dont complain about this sort of thing so long as nothing is broken, but look at that sad piece of paper doing its damndest to keep my merchandise safe. This lonely little guy must have fought the whole way from Somewheresville California just to keep my expensive crap safe from the shipping monsters kicking and smashing the box. Good job buddy! I just wish you had some bubble wrap friends for support. I did get a great prime day deal on this but at what cost? :,( Let us have a moment of silence for the Fs not given by this disgruntled amazon employee ...................

Glad to see AMD has made a comeback. So far Ive been very happy with my 2700x
