Good enough for what I need for.

Awesome little CPU for what I need to do. Awesome little CPU for what I need to do.

Performs well both for gaming and music production. Performs well both for gaming and music production.

Paired with a decent graphics card has no trouble playing everything I throw at it Paired with a decent graphics card has no trouble playing everything I throw at it

Got this thing for a 1440p build and oooh baby she purrs like a kitten, easy 120 fps for games like helldivers and forever winter (paired with a 4090 16g gpu, which is admittedly a lot harder to get nowadays, BUT I digress). Very good very nice.

Could it run 4k? Maybe, probably not, depends on how much ur willing to risk blowing the thing up ig.

I really like this cpu so far coming from a i5 6600 deffently have noticed the difference as to be expected found really easy to install into the motherboard and the amd software available is pretty cool as well i did how ever swap to an all in one because i didnt like the look of the stock cooler and wanted to keep temps under more control I really like this cpu so far coming from a i5 6600 deffently have noticed the difference as to be expected found really easy to install into the motherboard and the amd software available is pretty cool as well i did how ever swap to an all in one because i didnt like the look of the stock cooler and wanted to keep temps under more control

If you need a CPU for a general purpose home/office PC, this seems to be the sweet spot at the moment. Intel 13th and 14th generation CPUs are cooking themselves and the 15th generation has lacklustre performance. AMD Ryzen is where it's at.

I didn't bother using the included heatsink/fan and instead went with an after market option that runs cooler and silently.

Its a good price for a good CPU that should see it stack up favoribly vs the 12400F/13400F.
The problem remains with the MB's. When a decent non horibly gimped B650 board costs the same as the 7600 CPU itself then we have a problem.
Also watching some other reviews for the 7700 and 7900 its painfully clear this is what AMD should have released on launch. A 7600, 7700 and 7900 at their prices are all decently competitive against the 13400F, 13600K and 13700K in a way the original models that were priced a tier above where they should have been arent.

Great buy for the price it was at. Tested against 7800X3d on TimeSpy and only 20FPS slower. Great buy for the price it was at. Tested against 7800X3d on TimeSpy and only 20FPS slower.

i got this cpu when it was $339. along with the 4060 OC eagle, works a treat.
all the parts for this build i bought off PB Tech. Really want to add strimer cables next.
