Pros: - Running smooth and quiet in an Asrock Steel Legend B450m + Crucuial M.2 SSD (CT1000P1SSD8) + G.SKILL Flare X 2 x 8GB DDR4 3200 (F4-3200C16D-16GFX)
Cons: - It took 6 weeks of RMA'ing parts before the system was stable
Overall Review: After 15 flawless minutes, Windows 10 crashed and wouldn't boot after that. After RMA'ing the MB and RAM and flashing the BIOS and resetting the CMOS, I still couldn't even boot Linux off a USB stick. Just before I ordered replacement parts, it started working. Now the system works great. Who knows why. Probably not the CPU's fault, but everybody takes one egg off on this one.
Pros: Excellent performance upgrade compared to older AM3s/AM4s and even last generation Ryzen. AAA gaming no problem, can handle most intensive tasks as well. Price was extremely reasonable given performance improvements--much better pricing than comparable Intel cpus. Included cooler works great for most applications as well.
Cons: nothing, it's a great processor.
Overall Review: Yes, would definitely purchase again. I paired it with a Gigabyte Aorus X570 Elite board, 16GB DDR4-3200, and RX580. Excellent.
Pros: Very happy with the Ryzen 5. This is my first build and everything went smoothly. It came with a cooling fan which I decided to use for now. The CPU, MB and the software are all working well. I have yet to start playing with overclocking, but have looked at videos that describe how to experiment in this regard.
Overall Review: Great value for the performance
Pros: - Fast, and it works. Right now, I am downloading 4 games (Sea Of Thieves, The Outer Worlds, Forza Horizon 4, and Astroneer) and my computer still runs great.
Cons: The stock cooler is a little loud however that is no surprise
Overall Review: Stock cooler keeps my CPU at around 50-60 degrees on average playing MW. Websites load fast, games load and run fast. It works, and it works well.
Cons: Didn’t work for me
Overall Review:
When I turned on my build the system would just boot loop constantly. I was able to get it post a total of 3 times and during one of those the system just shut off randomly. At first I thought it was the mobo (gigabyte Aorus x570 itx) so I had it replaced and had the same boot loop behavior. I swapped out the mobo, ram, PSU, SSD, and GPU while troubleshooting.
I’ve submitted an RMA to get a new CPU that will hopefully work :(
Pros:
Everything runs smoother an snappier. Upgraded from 1600x and there is a significant (almost night and day) difference.
-Had to RMA the first one. No eggs off 'cause this is the first time in all the years I have been building systems that I have had a bad CPU. Just my turn.
-Big thumbs up for NewEggs RMA process. Its easy and it just work.
Cons:
This is actually the second one, due to the first one boot looping on me. Clearing CMOS, resetting/reseating everything did not work.
Be prepared for temperatures you will not be used too. I am idling at 28C to 32C. Gaming pops it up to 50C to 60C and Prime95 hit 93C (95C is max). Prime95 was the full CPU stress test. I am using a Zalman 9500 air cooler and Artic MX-4 thermal paste.
Overall Review:
This cpu went into an ASROCK AB350 pro 4 on bios 5.80. I cleared the bios, inserted the chip, thermal paste (pea size), installed cooler and booted it up. Did the on/off cycle and I got into the bios. Easy days. I restarted and booted into windows. Ran some test and checks. Booted back into the bios and updated to 6.00. Rebooted, more checks, booted back into the bios and set the ram to XMP profile 1, boosting me to 3200. Ran Prime95 for a couple of hours to check thermals and profit. :)
Loving the chip and I will be a happy camper for a few years. I will update if any issues arise.
Pros:
- Blazing Fast
- Multitasking Easy
- Great gaming performance
Cons: - Promotion uses Epic gaming store.
Overall Review: Would be 5/5 if redemption was allowed on Steam. Epic sucks.

Pros: I'm building 2 systems. A previous system used the Ryzen 5 1600X, and I was quite pleased with the performance of that one. I'm going with the 3600 as it is the same number of cores (and I understand that the gnu compiler doesn't like too many cores and will go into a panic) as that 1600X, but not buying the X version as I have no intention of playing with overclocking, and like the 65-watts better than the 95-watt component.
Cons: none detected so-far, aside from USB 2.0 issues.
Overall Review: highly recommended.
