Great price considering the performance and efficiency.

For 6 cores and 12 threads with an included CPU cooler.

Was initially a bit sceptical coming from only Intel systems for the past decade but that has turned out to be one of the biggest plot twists of my twenties:) Great price considering the performance and efficiency.

Much higher computes per second than the previous generation. The cpu sits at around 45 degrees in my system (midi ATX case with 1 fan) with the included wraith cooler idling. Its a great efficienct CPU. Highly recommended. I am using it with a 3080GTX video card. I haven't yet managed to pin the CPU to max while playing 4k games! So it gets the job done on a simple midrange modern gaming rig. Much higher computes per second than the previous generation.

Performs like a charm, overclocks great, getting good fps!! Performs like a charm, overclocks great, getting good fps!!

Upgraded from ryzen 2600 to 5600x, and it has increase a lots of FPS. Super powerful and very low power consumption, runs cool and quiet with my single tower cooler.

This CPU works well with any b550 or x570 motherboard and is simple to overclock. Comes with decent CPU cooler with pre-applied thermal paste. Easy to install and is able to handle most of the most modern titles and rendering tasks. This CPU works well with any b550 or x570 motherboard and is simple to overclock.

Doubled my frame rates from a intel quad core. Would strongly recommend. Doubled my frame rates from a intel quad core. Would strongly recommend.

Performs as well as, or better than any intel CPU (I switched from a 9700k) currently out. Certainly a worthy upgrade if you're a few generations behind on either platform. Day to day use has been flawless with no issues. My only gripe is that it's a fair bit more expensive than last-gen at launch.

I game at 1440p so differences I noticed are small to non-existent, but keep in mind the i7 cost a fair bit more at the time of purchase. You can expect it to be on par with the 10900K and 5900X/5950X in several games at 1080p. Having more cores isn't really as important as it may seem unless you're using it for work. Overall for gaming it's up ...view more Performs as well as, or better than any intel CPU (I switched from a 9700k) currently out.

Overall for gaming it's up there with the best, you can check detailed reviews from Gamers Nexus or Hardware Unboxed for comparisons.

Works well, was a solid upgrade from a 6600k with a noticeable performance increase in games and general use Works well, was a solid upgrade from a 6600k with a noticeable performance increase in games and general use

Can easily play any game and have discord and other apps running in the background Can easily play any game and have discord and other apps running in the background

Great CPU for everything you can throw at it. Would recommend. Thanks PB TECH. Great CPU for everything you can throw at it. Would recommend. Thanks PB TECH.

I have this in a B550 motherboard and it's working great. It gives good performance for a reasonable cost. I have this in a B550 motherboard and it's working great. It gives good performance for a reasonable cost.
