AMD Ryzen 7 3rd Gen - RYZEN 7 3800X Matisse (Zen 2) 8-Core 3.9 GHz (4.5 GHz Max Boost) Socket AM4 105W 100-100000025BOX Desktop Processor

Pros: i game like 20% of the time on my computer and spend the rest of the time CAD modelling or compiling code. this thing blows those tasks out of the water while still handling 4k gaming like a champ. in fact i can have a game open, 20 chrome tabs open, and a fully lit scene rendering, and still have processor room leftover for compressing yesterday's work

Cons: doesn't actually taste like a chip, the gold pins stabbed me in the mouth. definitely not a good source of vitamin d

Overall Review: intel should just give up, in fact they just did today and admitted that they wont produce a 7nm part until 2022 or later. they got slammed with a 16% price collapse on the stock market. GUESS YA SHOULDN"T HAVE MILKED THE CUSTOMER EH? especially when the competition is producing parts for this cheap and with this much power for not much heat. no longer will i have an expensive space heater in my office. this thing runs cool

Pros: None

Cons: None

Overall Review: CPU came dead. I troubleshot with multiple motherboards, GPUs, screens, RAM sticks. Nothing worked.
