AMD Ryzen™ 5 7600X 6-Core, 12-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

Over the past year, there have been plenty of problems and discussions with AM5 boards. I had no issues at all. I was going to get the Ryzen 5 5800x3d, but thats AM4, and I wanted to take a gamble on AM5. The 7600x is cheaper and runs plenty fast for me. At the time of this writing, Id venture to say that the 7600x is the best bang for the buck, though Intel prices have come down as well.

Gets a little warm but that was to be expected. Runs everything I need like a champ and was a good value for me.

Ive topped this CPU with Thermaltake Contac Silent 12 150W and now enjoying with constant squeal of a circular saw. This CPU is very hot, not only in the games, but even when You are opening a page on the Internet. Needs a solid power cooler.

This was my first pc build. Processor seems to be working well. However, their seems to be some stability issues with the default overclocking setting on my motherboard (not XMP/EXPO, that works fine) . Pretty stable otherwise.

Dropped this in a gigabyte b650 aorus elite ax board and no issues whatsoever it all functions properly and runs fairly cool.

I was going to get the 7700x but as other reviewers have stated its not that much faster in gaming. I have this 7600x paired with a 7900XT graphics card for 1440p gaming and its a beast of a combo! I did purchased this cpu from microcenter but regardless of where you buy I highly recommend it.

FYI. If you actually want to receive the Jedi Survivor game with your purchase, you have to make sure you follow a convoluted process of clicks under the promotions area. Its not as simple as just ordering the processor. If you just ordered the processor and thought youd receive a copy of Jedi Survivor once the processor shipped, youd be wrong. Feels dishonest.

So far so good, runs all my games with a huge increase in performance has more than enough power and it also runs cool under a Deepcool ak620 cooler looking at 68 celcius under full load.

This CPU is amazing. With my old system having an i7 6700, this was a MUCH needed boost to performance. The CPU can get hot with air cooling, so when getting it, I strongly suggest water cooling aswell. Though the CPU can get up to 95°, having water cooling will keep it under 60° at full load.

Upgraded from a i7 8700, and it was a much needed performance improvement. It does run quite a bit hotter than some older CPUs, but DONT BE ALARMED! The 7000 series are all built to operate at 95 degrees C, so anything under that is perfectly fine and normal. Regardless, the only time those temps were even approached was with a run of cinebench r23, so youll never reach temps that high during gaming or regular use.
