    from completed build First Home Server - NixOS

    Works smoothly, stays at C6 (the lowest C-state among C1, C2 & C6) almost every time. Probably overkill for my use case.

    NOTE: On NixOS, the AMD microcode in the official repos only include the EPYC and Threadripper microcode. For this CPU (and all other consumer AMD CPUs), I suggest using the ucodenix flake from GitHub, which uses the AMD-signed microcode published on platomav's GitHub repo. Also, you would have to either update your BIOS to the 2025-04-01 version, or lock the CPU microcode repository (not the flake) to the 0be0bd7b6a3ec1f1b59562729f1ce14b9569b697 commit.

    Great for what I need but I kind of wish I had gotten a more powerful CPU.

    This cpu is great. 6 cores, 12 threads enough speed to keep up with modern gpus and is very good for a budget definitely recommend.

    The stock cooler is fine, but I might replace it with a Noctua NH-L9A-am4

    from completed build Budget AM4 Build

    Still a great budget option for a CPU today, and can be upgraded to a 5700X3D down the line for some more gaming performance.

    For how relatively cheap this CPU is, it holds up super well in most games. Rarely ever bottlenecking my 6800xt even at 1440p, I have no complaints. 4.5 GHz is super nice on a CPU this cheap as well. The stock cooler works amazingly well too, with good temps all round.

    from completed build My First PC ft. ebay (sept 2024)

    Works well & keeps great temps. General Usage temps seem to be between 35c-42c. The highest temps I've seen were when playing Cities: Skylines with mods & assets, somewhere between 50c-60c. I haven't had any experience with the stock cooler as I bought mine on ebay with the CPU only. Bought from this seller

    Great budget CPU overall, but note that it's on the AM4 socket.
