Like normally, it's an easy CPU to put in with the heatsink. The heatsink provided works great, but I used a larger heatsink with two fans instead. You can play most modern games at Ultra settings 1080p at 100fps, or 60fps at 4K with a good GPU pair. It can pull very little power when not in full load, and does pull upwards of 65W when at ~90% usage. Great CPU for the price.

Do not encourage and let these scalpers profit. Let their inventory rot. **Q: Why so much?** A: People set up bots to automatically buy all the stock and artificially increase the prices. **Q: Why is this cpu listed at over £200 more than retail. that is 32gb ram or a decent chunk towards an x570 motherboard.** A: Scalpers buying up stock and put back online with a profit. Just wait and be patient. Got mine from Amazon for msrp. **Q: ETA on Stock?** A: Although a small number of these processors are available, the only people selling them are leeches who stockpiled when they were available so that then can extort huge amounts of money from customer by selling them during global shortages for twice the price (like now!). Unless you want to throw money down the toilet, wait a few weeks and get this at a decent price when supply catches up with the demand. Curry's sell them for £280 (normal price) but are currently out of stock so set notifications for when they are available again. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great CPU when you pair it right *by C***. on 3 November 2025* I don't fully know technology however it is what it is, it's a fast CPU that I paired with a Radeon RX 7700XT which work perfect together.
