Works great, stock, XMP 1&2
Pros: - Very fast - Decent price - Hassle free tuning, XMP
Cons: - none
Overall Review: Works very well, as you can see in the 99% percentile using Passmark in XMP2 setting, (MSI Z590-A PRO motherboard), which was actually 3600mghz but lower timings than XMP1 at 4000mghz at slightly higher timings, I believe scored a 98% percentile rank. The other image attached is much lower at stock settings.
Great CPU
Pros: - great for the money
Cons: - runs hot - higher power consumption
Overall Review: Great cpu for the money! Overclocks easily, though heat is a major issue. My Antec Kühler H2O 920 was great on previous cpu, though on XMP overclocks can't keep up with this one. Have to run stock until I can upgrade the cooler and/or thermal paste (using arctic silver 5).
