Worthy Upgrade Over 1st-gen Ryzen
1 of 1 found this helpful This chip is a huge upgrade over my old Ryzen 5 1600 6-Core processor. I bought it to run Star Citizen better, and it runs it about twice as fast as my old processor (aka: ~ twice the FPS in the most taxing scenes.) (I also got a 360mm liquid cooler to replace the stock cooler I got with my old processor, so that probably accounts for some of the performace improvement.) It has a max boost clock of 4.5 GHz, but even with the 360mm liquid cooler I put on it, it only gets up to about 4.29-4.32 GHz under load. I have not tried to overclock it, yet.
I bought it because my X370 motherboard does not support newer 5000-series Ryzen processors.
Overall, I would recommend this processor to anyone needing an upgrade over a first-gen Ryzen processor who does not want to replace their motherboard. (Check you mobo's CPU support list before buying! Yours may not support this processor, even though mine did.)
