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

Thanks AMD

This processor is a beast playing games. The stock cooler is great and will keep it pretty cool but I plan on upgrading later but it adds value if you’re look to build on a budget plus the rgb makes it look nice .

Good CPU

really fast and quiet, i got it for a new build and it works like a charm great cooler too.

Brilliant cpu dont let gaming benchmarks fool you this is a beast of a cpu try it for yourself you wont be disappointed.

Compared to a FX8350, this processor smokes anything it touches with ease. If you need to do anything but play CSGO this is the CPU you need. The included cooler is made by CoolerMaster and works very well. use 3200MHZ DDR4 ram for great results, and remember to set it to that speed in your bios using XMB or manually as it will default to stock speed.

heat sink that comes with chip is very good quality and easy to install

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.

Works like a charm

For this price point, very fast for gaming and easy for overclocking
