2700x is very well-rounded
Style: Processor
What I've always loved about Ryzen CPUs is their value compared to Intel. AMD is comparable to the 8700k (~$360), and some even consider it to be on par with the 9700k (~$420 on Amazon). Upgrading from a 1600 (on one computer) and 2600x (on another) is a breeze. Why? AM4 compatibility, which is something Intel decides not to do. Want to upgrade to Ryzen 2 (TBA at CES)? Just take off your cooler, take your current CPU out, and put this new one in WITHOUT the hassle of dropping another $190-$290 on a new motherboard. The 2700x even comes with a cooler, which the 9700k does not have, and a fine cooler at that. An aesthetically pleasing cooler and fully functional one that keeps one of my 2700x under 73C with Precision Boost 3 (which goes up to 5Ghz for me). My other 2700x is AIO water cooled, and can push out up to 6.5Ghz (on all cores) with Precision Boost 2 at 70C-80C. This CPU at idle gives out 2% usage, which I took for granted until I looked at an i5 8400(?) which idled at 20%. Also, Ryzen Master, beautiful work of art. Instead of restarting my computer a million times to get a stable clock, I can just go into Ryzen Master, increase core clocks until it crashes, then raise the voltage and find a stable clock speed. Or you can leave it to Precision Boost 2, but I like to run my CPU at 4.2 Base with Precision Boost 2 enabled. If you're doing a mid-tier budget build for all-purpose, I really suggest this CPU, as it can do everything equally well, as it is more around daily tasks than Intel's gaming tasks. I love this CPU so much, that I've fitted it in all four of the computers in the house with no complaints on gaming or such from others. Edit: Added photos of stock 2700x cooler. Fan colour changes and the ring around the fan has an RGB wave pattern. It can maintain a semi-idle 2700x at 35C-45C. Also uploaded some photos of it. Haven’t touched the software though and I personally don’t plan to. Edit 2: Just got my 9900k, and it was a massive disappointment compared to this $310 Ryzen beast. In CS:GO, a CPU intensive game, it only ran 20FPS faster, which literally doesn’t matter since most monitors can’t go over 240HZ (2700x had 275 avg; 9900k has 300; but these CPUs max out at 500 in certain scenarios). My 9900k was even clocked at 5.3Ghz and costs $530, so compared to this Ryzen 2700x, it really isn’t worth it unless you want to show it off or do Adobe stuff which is optimised for Intel. But because I overclocked, my temps were 30C idle and up to 90C during gaming. On the 2700x, it never broke 60C, with the same cooler and fans. Pros -cost effective -comes with a decent stock cooler -easy overclock (if you like that sort of thing) -easy to upgrade from Zen 1 or upgrade to Ryzen 2 -cheaper motherboards that can easily overclock Cons -not the best single-core performance, but what do you expect for $310 compared to Intel's $380 CPU -not the best variety of motherboards (which isn't a 2700x problem, but just general) -I can't think of anything else

If your system did not post, read this!
Style: Processor
So this is my first ever Ryzen build (2700X) and my 1st 8 core CPU. No thanks to Intel for keeping their 8 core CPUs out of mainstreamers reach with ridiculous prices. My previous system was a i5 6600K @4.7Ghz, awesome build for just gaming. Anyways, after assembling the system and powering it on for the very first time, monitor did not show anything. The system had power and all the fancy LED lights and fans were on. So what I did was swap my RAMs from A1 B1 to A2 and B2. Then the system boosted just fine! At first I thought the lastest BIOS update would fix it. But even after the latest BIOS update the system doesn't post if I install the RAMs in A1 and B1. After you move the Ram sticks to A2B2 you might want to take out the battery, disconnect the power cord and reset the CMOS by sorting the two pins. Coming from the Intel platform I must say, the BIOS is a bit different on Ryzen. On the Skylake, I only had to adjust vcore for CPU voltage. But in Ryzen it seems there's a second voltage to look out for, SoC voltage. I manually set my voltage to 1.375 but HWinfo has shown the max it hit as 1.5v so I guess I need some more tweaking to do. I'm using a really old Crucial 2400Mhz cl16 Ram which I bought when Intel Skylake first came out. I was able to OC it to 2700Mhz with the Intel system but couldn't do it on the Ryzen, just didn't post. Hopefully later if the Ram prices drop I would upgrade it to 3200mh c14 Ram. After setting up the drivers I had Windows update running in background and I thought of testing out AC Origins on this system. I was gaming for a about 5 mins and notice that all fans including the CPU fan had stopped for whatever reason. And because of this the CPU temp was well over 90 degrees, so I powered it down and let it cool. After fully updating windows, I tested the game again and everything was good! I'm going to install Adobe apps and will update more info soon. One of most annoying issues I got is that Asus AI suite, CPU-Z and HWinfo shows completely different vcore and CPU speed readings. So I have no idea which one is right. I have yet to install Ryzen master. Oh and right now I'm using the stock cooler that came with the 2700X and idle temps at at 43 celcius ambient at being around 24. Have to use this cooler until I get the AM4 mounts for my NH-D15. Thanks AMD! UPDATE 23-May-2018: I got the mounting kit for my Noctua NH-D15 and now my system idles at 30 celcius while being OC'ed to 4.22Ghz at 1.4v in BIOS! Huge thermal headroom compared to the stock cooler. When all cores are stressed to 100% it peaks at 60 degress! With stock cooler without OC it goes into 80s. UPDATE 29-May-2018 OVERCLOCKING: When i first got the CPU i found that 1.425v in BIOS with LLC on Auto gave me a rock solid 4.2Ghz OC. But then I kept seeing this strange vcore changes. At idle, the vcore stays around 1.4v to1.412v. But when I stress the CPU with any intensive task, the vcore drops and stays around 1.362v! That was weird. Less vcore with stress and more vcore when idle. lol So what I did was after a couple of tests, I manually set my vcore in BIOS to 1.387v and LLC to 5 and now the system always at this vcore even when stressed to 100% and even in idle! NICE. I found that LLC5 was needed to keep my vcore there. When i set the LLC to 4, the vcore drops down from 1.387v to 1.362v when stressed and causes Prime95 to crash. With LLC5 it stays at 1.387v when stressed with Prime95 and I didn't even had to raise the vcore! So in short, please don't leave the vcore and LLC on Auto. When you OC please set your LLC too.

Gaming Overkill
Style: Processor
Got this during Black Friday 2019 for $160. It was an unbeatable deal. I just looked at the R5 3600 like "sorry buddy, I want you but lol...they're making it difficult." I know they usually say the extra 2 cores work well for streaming so I did some twitch streaming @60fps 720p high video bitrate over wifi just to see how it handled it. Had several of my friends tune in including myself from another device. Stream was flawless. Meanwhile the game I was running was Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown. 1440p, completely maxed out graphics locked at 60fps. Didn't check the results without a cap while streaming but I know that when I was playing off stream and removed the cap I was getting like 170fps. I paired it up with a Sapphire Nitro+ 5700XT. It's a match made in heaven and the RGB of both the CPU and GPU are glorious. I've yet to find any reason to overlcock this CPU. It destroys everything I throw at it. Afterburner shows that the CPU handles itself nicely, boosting up to 4.2Ghz when it needs to, and coming back down to 3.7Ghz. I've never seen it hit 4.3Ghz on its own but like I said, when all your games get FPS like that at stock with those resolutions & graphics settings, what's the point? Emulators get devoured too. Wii U, PS3, Wii/GameCube, PS2 etc, just straight devoured. Breath of the Wild running at 4K@60 like....."WASSUP?" Not to mention CEMU 1.17.1 is dropping very soon and we're gonna see an even bigger boost in performance for AMD users. I always see the argument about "get the R7 2700X over the R5 3600 only if you stream". No bro, just get it cuz it's cheaper, has more cores, and has a monster heatsink. The gaming performance you're gonna lose is extremely negligent. Check out the testers on youtube. Speaking of heatsink, almost forgot the temps. I use a NZXT H510 with only the default exhaust fan setup. No extra case fans. I just tweaked the fan curves of the case, cpu and gpu slightly to my liking. Not enough for noise to be an issue either. I live in the Caribbean, it's dry season at the moment, so it's hot as hell. No AC in my room. My temps never go above 70c while gaming....so it's pretty safe to say the heatsink is doing its job. I was expecting more heat with a cramped case like mine and that monster AMD gpu (you know AMD looooves some toast action), but everything's actually running cool. This CPU/Heatsink combo man, there's just so much to love and so much money to save. Gotta love it lol.

Good cpu
Style: Processor
Stable, no issues. Wrote more about my feedback in regards to the platform on my board review. You can find plenty of reviews on this, but this is highly recommended. Great for gaming and software development. The performance is really strong, no blue-screens, and they did a good job of coaching/handhold the board companies to make sure they have their act together on this release. I have only had it for a few days, but i didn't even need to reinstall my os from the previous cpu which was intel (your mileage will vary). This is truely a great platform. And with amd you can upgrade your cpu in a couple of years, in the same board. They promised though 2020 support which means you get the 7nm cpu. Since there is real competition now you can expect some real innovation in the next couple of years, so this is a big deal from both intel and amd. It makes everyone better Nice to see amd back in the game. It has made a huge impact on cpu prices and feature set. The cooler also worked great for me. No temperature issues. The cooler is louder than what i liked. as a bit of an enthusiast i would rather have a larger but quieter fan on the board. The cooler is perfectly designed for this cpu. i would by default spend any money on an after market cooler 100 would be better used on a gpu or ram by far. Note you can also make sure your case has good airflow and go with simpler cooling solutions since you don't need to compensate for a bad case or case fan setup. Anyway, this is a great well rounded cpu. As a software engineer it is great to see fast compile times, and cores to spare for hyperv and docker. I can also play all the latest games just fine. though truth be told you can do that with a 150 dollar cpu. I didn't have any problems with Ram compatibility. I came from Haswell (intel) i dont' notice any difference in gaming (not expecting to) but productivitivy is a big boost. If you just game you really don't need this much cpu generally.

I love it
Style: Processor
7/15/2020 UPDATE: So regarding the whole offset voltage thing. It seems you may find mixed results. Yes the decreased voltage reduces heat. Reduce heat means higher potential clock right? Wrong. In situations where the CPU was already more than capabable of handling itself to where it will not harm itself even running full speed(stock) under heavy load. It changes freq. But the problem comes with the voltage requests of the motherboard. The CPU will also downclock if it does not get the voltage it needs. "But you just enable PBO!" Yes that loosens the power caps but remember, volts = watts x amps and amps = watts/volts. So heres how it can possiBly screw you if you don't balance the reduced voltage with the increased amperage. Your MOBO is still requesting the same stock voltage of say 1.58v(my highest hwinfo64 reading) at 138w(PBOenabled. highest hwinfo64 reading) @ at full load causing almost 95amps draw. And thats a problem vs stock where the lack of voltage isnt causing power demands that just cant be met. Causing downclocking. And also reducing XFR to almost zero Benifet since the CPU will refuse to clock any higher if it feels any of its parameters that would allow it to aren't Being met. One of which is caused By the reported SV12 Voltage bing lower than the VID. Making the CPU think its reached max power already since hardware limitations didnt allow for an increasing in amps to compensate for the reduced voltage. Which I admit, a good power supply will help reduce the issue. In other words, yes you are shedding heat. Great if you dont need the extra horsepower and want to extend life. But if thats not for you, then I wouldnt recomend any voltage offset over -.0500v. Beyond that your just asking to starve the CPU of power. Check GamersNExus for Benchmarks on this exact scenario. So with the stock cooler. MSI b450m Tomahawk: My temps are around 40-45c idle. Expected. Loads under gaming 60-70c. p95 75c. ALL PRETTY DANG GOOD FOR A STOCK COOLER STOCK SETTINGS My boost clocks are hitting 4.25-4.35ghz consistently during gaming. Which is amazing. I noticed a HUGE difference since I upgraded from a FX 6350 to this monster. I recently tried a -.0750v offset and so far its very stable and shaved off about 3c-5c on all my temps. And the boost clocks seems to be running about the same. Benchmarks seem to be unaffected as well. I will remove the negative voltage offset as soon as my MSI Frozr L heatsink comes in tomorrow. There is no need to overclock this thing. DO NOT BY AN X if you want to overclock. Buy the non X save $20+ then OC to the X specs. Easy as that. The way ryzens are designed is to self OC to its limits. If you are running hot with high voltages GOOD. Its constantly pushing its limits to get the speeds it needs based on demand. I hit 1.5v+ during gaming all the time. Brief voltage and temp spikes will not hurt this baby at all. I love the way they designed this thing to run. All in all the Ryzens are great I HIGHLY recommend them. Save yourself hundreds and go with a Ryzen.

This CPU performs great in any task, perfect for gaming
Style: Processor
December 30, 2018 (5 days of use): I'm using this processor for gaming, but this is the PC that I use for all what I have to do and I can tell that this processor is made for any task, and it will perform great. Userbenchmark's bench gave me as a result of 100.2% in Base Clock. The AMD Wraith Prism performs great, even in long gaming sessions. I have a poor ventilation on my PC, because I've been armed it by pieces on my own (my next purchase will be some fans), and this Ryzen has never exceeded 85°C after long hours of playing games that demand enough CPU, taking into account that I'm only using a good GPU that generates some heat, that I'm using the stock AMD Wraith Prism Cooler and another intake fan in the front of the case, just that. Also, when I'm only surfing on internet or doing other tasks that demand almost nothing to the processor, the temperature at which it remains after a while is around 40°C - 48°C. AMD Ryzen Master works very well, you can change every aspect of the frecuency of your Ryzen, controll the RAM frecuency and even make some overclock of both, changing values like frecuency of every core, voltage, and even enable the Precision Boost Overdrive, that's a type of automatic overclock, where the CPU takes into account its temperature, maximum frequency and maximum power, to achieve values higher than the 3.7GHz base clock without having to worry about whether the temperature is harmful or if it is exceeding the maximum power or the maximum overclock frequency of the Ryzen. In my opinion, this is a great CPU for every task you need, you will not have only good gaming performace, also a great performance on every day use and in tasks that need a lot of cores and threads. Important for those who want to use the stock Wraith Prism Cooler: Connect ONLY the USB cable from the cooler to the motherboard and not use the RGB cable. Both work, but you will be able to controll RGB only with the USB cable. Also, don't connect both at the same time, because the cooler will only recognize the RGB header and not the USB. Then, download the Cooler Master Wraith Prism RGB Controller app from their website, and then you'll be able to change the color of the halo ring, the fan and the AMD logo, separately. My actual hardware is: -- AMD Ryzen 7 2700X -- Gigabyte Aorus B450 Elite motherboard -- Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 3000MHz (2x8GB) -- AMD Wraith Prism RGB Cooler -- Gigabyte Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 3GB OC G1 Gaming -- MyDigitalSSD SBX 256GB NVMe drive -- Seagate Barracuda 2TB (2016) -- Corsair CX600 ATX Power Supply -- AZZA Blaze 231 RGB case

Wonderfull Chip and cooler. Probably best not to use the stock thermal compoud though.
Style: Processor
The first PC I ever built I used an AMD Athlon processor in, and I loved it. When I found out about the Ryzen processors I was excited to see what they could do, and I was not disapointed. This chip feels very compitent. I put it into a gaming system, and I have had no issues with it. I also like the cooler. It looks good, and seems to function well. My only complaint about this setup is the factory applied thermal compound. I know, wipe it off and apply third party, but Im not over clocking, so I figured it would work for my purposes, and I was not disapointed, that is untill I had to swap a faulty motherboard. When I removed my cooler, it pulled the whole chip out of the socket. I was terified thinking it had dammaged something. Thankfully all pins were in place. Then came the hard part. It turns out that the factory thermal paste had spread all across the chip, and melted down the sides. I have never seen factory paste do that. The real problem though was that it somehow formed a sort of glue that had now bonded the CPU and cooler togather. They were not coming appart for anything (at least anything I was willing to try on my $300+ chip). Eventually I was able to disolve the thermal paste and save my chip using some very light heat and a little alcohol and a piece of dental floss. Aparently this happens more often then I had realized because there was a whole subredit about how to fix it (Thank you Redit ;-) . In the end it all worked out well and I have everything back up and running in my new MoBo. It was just an experience I will not forget.

Update: Figured out my issue, deleting my issue and rewriting what was up
Style: Processor
This cpu is great, upgraded from the Ryzen 5 1500x. Installation was smooth and seamless. Read the description of this product and make sure your bios is flashed unless you know you'll be able to boot straight up. There's software to customize the lights but make sure you only install the usb cable to it and your motherboard. If you install both or the rgb cable you won't be able to customize. The lights are just an added bonus but overall it's great. Also be sure you have your retention hooks that came with your board as this uses retention clips. *UPDATE* I figured out the problem was that the minimum processor state was set to 90%. That's an issue because that's what helps control the amperage going through the cpu. The software that is for the 2000 series cpus showed that my edc was always at 90%. This meant because the minimum was set to 90%, the cpu amperage would never fall below critical. So playing a cpu intensive game will cause the amperage to exceed what the cpu is rated for. This is what killed it the first time (and had probably killed my gpu along with it because it never booted with the 1500x after that, plus i fried it, lol whoops.) I had set the minimum down to 1%, and this helped a lot but when I stress tested the cpu and the edc would hit critical and even hit 100%. So i had to turn off core boost and this kept my edc at safe levels. Might have just been me but when getting this processor, go through the checks I did. I have it OC to 3.9 and may boost it later but for right now it works flawlessly. Download the Ryzen Master software for this cpu and keep an eye on the edc. This processor will be turbo'd even at idle (it will stay at 4.1 until you start playing a game). If you notice the edc wont drop below 90%, I'll rehash my steps: Open up control panel Go to hardware go to power options and hit choose power plan Make sure you have AMD Ryzen Balanced selected and then click change plan settings Go to advanced settings Go to processor power management then drop down minimum processor state, and type 1% If your edc is still too high for your comfort, restart your system and go into your bios and turn off core boost. Everything should be fine then. You will lose the edc reading but dont worry, your cpu will be fine. OC as you wish. Just be mindful when doing so. Hope this helps, I don't want others to have their systems get ruined like mine did and have to buy new hardware like i did. This is a fantastic processor, there is just a hiccup to fix and luckily it's easy to do.
