One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

I'm not a  intel fan, and have respected amd since the early duron days. I understand that some Ryzen7 performance will be noticeably better, and cheaper at the same time. But with all the pluses of amd, finding a normal mother for him is more difficult and unpredictable. The impression is that manufacturers sometimes put poor peripherals on the motherboard on purpose, or simply do not really know what to do with the chipset. There are a lot of people who have been living normally with amd for years. But I also know people with elusive glitches in terms of hardware, and I hope I overpaid for peace of mind.

Pros

I took i7-9700F. Yes, functionally it is without dual-threading. The percent itself is ambiguous. But 8 cores will not be superfluous. I wouldn't say it gets very hot. Aerocool verkho 4 lite blows on it, and the temperature does not rise above 60. But at the same time it accelerates to 4500 automatically. It seems like there is a lot of it for the RTX 2060, but for once in the current version of 3dMark there is not a slide show, but a completely smooth picture.

Cons
