    Awesome Chip for the Price

    Awesome Chip for the Price
    The Ryzen 5 1500X Processor is very powerful for its price and TDP. Upgrading from my old PC was night and day difference and the 4 Cores 8 threads will assure my PC a longer life span as programs get more advanced and demanding. The only problem I encountered was with the platform in general. I was unable to even use my PC for the first month and a half due to blue screening and bad drivers/ bios versions. To be honest, it was a nightmare, but after replacing all of my parts (other than working ones) finally replacing the SSD and installing windows 10 via USB did the trick and it has appeared to work great ever since. Anyways, here is my simple list of Pros and Cons.PROS:1. Good Bang for the Buck ($189 here or 169 sometimes on eBay) for 4 solid Cores and 8 threads!2. Very power efficient compared to the Amd FX cpus with a TDP of 65W3. I haven't personally tried it yet, but this CPU has a pretty effective overclock.4. The stock cooler is actually really good. My temps have never reached really hot temps even when gaming. Also, the cooler matches my black/silver themed build quite well surprisingly.CONS (Not really the CPU's fault)1. The platform has a fairly rough beginning as memory support is sketchy and early versions of Windows 10 can prevent it from working.-Solution: Check your motherboard RAM compatibility and install the latest Windows 10 via USB.Because this issue isn't on the CPU exclusively, I will still confidently give this product a 5 stars!
