Well worth the price

It's a entry level good, very reasonable fast. I would not suggest using the cooler that comes with it will cause your CPU to get very hot .

One of the best bang for your buck CPU's

No regrets purchasing this processor to replace my Ryzen 5 2600. Paired with my RTX 3070, I'm now able to run modern titles like Hunt Showdown and AC Valhalla at around 100 fps max settings.
