Replaced my 1600 and Works Great!
I was going to use my old Ryzen 5 1600 for a low-budget system since I purchased a newer CPU over the holidays.. before I could toss it into the extra motherboard I had I literally tossed it onto the floor aka fumbled and bent some pins beyond repair.
I went online and looked for the cheapest Ryzen 5 CPU and grabbed a 1400 for like $50. I didn't expect it to be the fastest chip ever but I am very surprised as it runs very COOL w/ the stock AMD Wraith heatsink.
On an old ASUS B350-F mobo w/ 16GB RAM, I tossed a 960gtx GPU into it and was impressed with what it could do... More than enough CPU for any 'older' games say before 2020-2018... but probably not enough for Doom Eternal, God of War (2018), and some beefier games... Honestly depends what GPU you have in there because the Quad-Core CPU runs @ 3.2Ghz.
The 1600 was a 6-core, but this 1400 Quad-core is impressive and like all AMD chips will probably outlive me... I'd highly recommend this CPU for anyone building a budget gaming system, but this chip would also be awesome for anyone who just wants a fast office PC for work, media, and whatever else.
