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

Well, coming from a PC with an old quad core duo that was a frankenstein of a PC running ubuntu that TBH i never used as it was a P.O.S., anything made in the past couple years wouldve made me say wow, but ... holy crap WOW. Not like I needed this high end of a CPU, and to say it handles anything Ive thrown at it isnt much to say either, but I can say it is nice to have something this nice for a change. I truely feel this thing will last me quite a while. So far I run e z games on it. Set it in BIOS to run at 1.3V @ 4100Mhz and have no issues on stock cooler so far with what Ive run... again, not pressing. Studio One artist with current updates, Hellblade: Senuas Sacrifice, and Tomb Raider Anniversary. NO issues at all. Running with Asrock Master SLI/ac MB, EVGA GTX 1080 card, 16 GB GSkill, stock cooler, 750W PS. LOVE IT!

This is a Beast!

When Ryzen first released, I bought the 1600x to replace my Intel, it was much better than my Intel (I had an older i5 that was OCed to the max). One of my friends told me about the price drop on the 2700X so I decided to jump on it, I am so glad I did. I cant believe the performance gains over my 1600X. If anyone is looking to build a gaming PC for medium dollars, I would highly recommend this processor and the Gigabyte Aorus X470. My benchmarks with this MB and processor W/O any OC is a lot faster than my 1600X, even in single core benchmarks (which is the only place my 1600X didnt do great). I cant comment on longevity yet, but I am very, very happy with what I have here.

If youre looking for your first CPU (as I was in my first personal build) and want something that has excellent performance without dropping $500 on a CPU then the Ryzen 7 2700X is a great choice. This CPU does everything I need it to and more, and performs nicely with the mobo/RAM I bought with it (Ripjaws V 32GB 3000Mhz / MSI X470 CARBON PRO mobo). I had absolutely no issues with installation and at least with my setup Im getting 4.0GHz out of the box without any tweaking at all which is excellent.

I’m able to run all the latest games. The cooling fan that comes with it works and looks great and its also quiet.

i test alot of stuff and work and swap hardware evrey week or so and this was a pain

Works well

Excellent for gaming and productivity. Does not disappoint!

Doesnt actually come with fan and box, just cpu in some protective wrap, could be my fault for not checking, but still a little misleading for the average consumer. The cpu however still worked just as expected. Heres a photo of my setup.

Stays cool during gamer because of the awesome looking cooler. 8 cores for 213 dollars is great value way better than intel. Gaming performance is super good for only 213 dollars just amazed
