A great CPU

Always is and will be known as the king of budget!! Great CPU for gaming and photo editing. Doesn't bottle neck most games at 1440p. Perfect ultra 1080p and decent 1440p gaming. Can't complain especially when bought on sale.

Great for the price

Brought to build my first budget rig, didnt have much leeway with my current powersupply so opted for this as it had a lower tdp, runs rainbow 6 siege and war zone on high settings 100fps @100hz with zero issues. Recommend for a budget build

A Great Relief

After many hours of troubleshooting, I realized I had a cooked CPU and was hesitant about whether replacing the CPU with a similar model or upgrading to AM5 and I am not disappointed. I've had anywhere between 10-20 FPS boost since I upgraded to this from only a 5600 at 1440p and my temps are slightly better . I just love AMD and the stores person was just a great help, I knew exactly what I was looking for and they made it a breeze, in and out the shop within 2 minutes. Still pairs nicely with my RTX 3060, This CPU is probably one of the best Budget Gaming CPUs' out there, recommend
