    Very fast, reliable, futuristic capable cpu ever made. It does consume quite some power so make sure you hace a power supply capable of handling it. It also brings to the table integrated graphics which look amazing. Thermal paste is not included nor is cooling system like the past few generations.

    Pretty big improvement from my 3600x but I expected a little bit more. The only real difference between this and the 7600x is the wattage, the clock speeds are very similar. This means the 9600x runs very cool but I just wish it performed a little better but for the money it's a pretty good value and am5 platform has gotten very cheap.

    This CPU is great for the price. I paired it with the RX7600x with no problems. These two work great together. I am worried about when i uograde the GPU, the CPU will also need tk be upgraded.

    Incredible performance for the price, blown away by how Ryzen 5 continues to improve as a lower cost CPU. There may be better versions of this CPU now, but, this is a great standby.
