5.0 out of 5 stars Great performance for a great price
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2023
Verified Purchase
First off, the compact box does not come with a CPU cooler. Inside the tiny box, there is only the CPU, the all-important sticker, and a manual of installation.

If you are planning on buying a different cooling solution (my case came with an AIO), then this presentation is perfect. Brand new, it costs around the same as the few used models in Ebay located in North America.

According to several reviewers, it is also just slightly worse than the 3600X so you are not losing much by going for the significantly cheaper model. I installed it on a B550M motherboard, and I had no issues so far. It is recognized by the BIOS as the advertised model.

Granted, shipping was a bit strange, since it supposedly started in San Antonio, Texas, then appeared in Ohio three hours later. It was only delayed for two days from the original delivery date, so not much of a problem for me.

In conclusion, if you are planning on using a separate cooling solution and you want to stay on AM4, it is a very good buy.

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2023

Upgraded from a 1600. Obviously this is better. Threw it in a GA AB350. Had to upgrade BIOS (which I should have done anyhow). No extra mess beyond that. Is it good for gaming? It will do the job. Strongly depends on the game as to how well it will do. Some games are not CPU dependent. I run mainly Tarkov. Which is CPU dependent. And this upgrade was a marked improvement on performance. I could play on the old chip. But load times were very slow. Now my load times are about 1/4 the time. That's huge for me.
Would I recommend this? If this is what your budget allows, it will do the job you need it to.

Purchased for 84$ and at that price this cpu can't currently be beat. It replaced a ryzen 1700x for my wifes home office pc and the higher base clock rate and zen 2 architecture improvements make it the superior cpu for 99% of tasks even though it has 2 less physical cores. Used it in a bios updated x370 mobo and have zero issues with it.

There is nothing to dislike about this AMD CPU the performance per price is unbeatable, if you are building a 1080 gaming or video editing rig to a budget then this CPU is your best bet, it does everything well enough
my system consists of:MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus Mobo, RYZEN 5 3600 CPU, 32GB DDR4 3200mhz Ram and a Radeon RX6600XT graphics card with 8gbs onboard Ram, i have no problem playing the latest games at 1080P getting around 150-180 fps as long as i dont max everything out graphics wise.

Très bon rapport qualité prix, très bien pour le gaming, niveau de config moyen, c'est un des meilleurs que vous pourriez trouver dans cette gamme de prix la, je vous le conseille vivement si il rentre dans votre budget, attention juste d'avoir une carte mère compatible avec le chipset am4, et d'avoir une carte graphique à part car il n'a pas de partie graphique intégré (comme à peu près tout les processeurs AMD).
