Pros: Good price for a good CPU, if it works it's a huge upgrade to my previous Ryzen 3rd gen. Plus, AMD CPUs are always good bang for their buck. It came on time despite not shipping for a week (from Hong Kong, US West to US East coast happened in less than a day! That's impressive), and the package was not damaged at all.
Cons: CPU is clearly used when it's supposed to be new, which makes one wary of its legitimacy and its life out of the package. Some of the inner packaging (mostly the paper) was a little dinged up and stained, which also leans toward it being used. I hope I can edit reviews in case it doesn't or does work.
Overall Review: It's. Okay. A little nervous since it's used to see if it works, and if it doesn't, I'll definitely be returning it for a full refund because it's unacceptable that this is being treated as new when this seller is selling used parts. Other than that it came on time, it's a great price for what is a great budget CPU, and if it works, I'll be happy as a pig in... well, "mud"!
