AMD Ryzen 3 1300X Processor with Wraith Stealth Cooler - High Performance Desktop CPU Review

It has been running for about two and a half years and as far as I can tell it has worked very well with the Radeon RX 580 4GB. I play at 1080p and usually settle for medium/high graphics (usually medium for online) depending on the game.

This processor runs well and is cool with the stock cooler. I really try to use quiet setups and haven't had good results with previous generations of AMD processors due to their heat issues and unreliable coolers. In my opinion, they really nailed this line. It runs cool, quiet (with stock cooler) and handles…
