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

Affordable, the performance is as good as any other for day to day tasks and even gaming. Its a beast

Easy install. Arrived on time. I upgraded from a Ryzen 5 2600 and this 2700x is a BEAST Black Friday $149.99 and a free game. I clicked so fast i almost broke my finger!!

Ok

Using this for heavy games that require alot of processing power like Beam.NG Drive, and it doesnt even skip a beat. Highly recommend

I bought this cpu to help me get started with streaming after coming from a FX 6350 chip. I can say I am satisfied. I have had no problems running multiple programs while streaming. The Wraith Prism cooler it comes with is also really nice for a stock cooler. Not to mention super quiet. Would recommend to anybody looking to get into streaming or do some heavy multitasking like video editing.

An excellent upgrade in the gaming rig. I will say that the heat sink was fidgety, but performs well once it installed.

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.

This is a terrible processor. Ever since I installed it into your PC Ive been getting nothing but constant hard crashes straight to a black screen. Want to run a game full screen? Too bad. Want to run more than three things at once? Too bad. Terrible purchase.

It can nicely packaged

Bought this for my simple computer build that turned into an advanced computer build because of cyber Monday deals. I was going for the Ryzen 5 but the Ryzen 7 2700x went on sale, so I upgraded for $15 more ($265 total.) Turned out great, runs silent, and looks cool in my computer. Ill probably never use it to its full gaming potential.
