  1. Jayreview

    A stronger APU I need for setting up my computer. GPU are expensive so it is something nice.

  2. loadiee

    10/10 product. worth every single penny very good product

  3. Anoothaaone

    Good cpu for the money ( got it on sale ). I would not by this for full price or above 150.

  4. PCBros

    Best CPU with integrated graphics out there. Price to performance is unbeatable.

  5. kwilliams7

    One of the best CPU’s with built in graphics you can buy.

  6. Cwbecke

    Purchased to finish a basic gaming PC for my wife. I was not sure about gpu so the on chip graphics will hold us over until the right deal pops up.

  7. lBeMba

    It work great on my son computer runs nice and smooth

  8. HectorA

    If you are looking for a powerful desktop, workstation or gaming processor that is also affordable….this processor covers it all. Works well, runs most big games like Enlisted at 38-45FPS. Great for budgets builds. Make sure to download the drivers to activate the graphics when you install this CPU. My games ran well, I am waiting for GPU prices to drop so this does the job good enough. When playing Enlisted, I had frames up to 45FPS to a steady 37FPS. If you are playing Apex Legends and you are a serious gamer, get a GPU. This CPU ran Apex at 30fps to 26FPS so just grab a GPU for that. And if you for some reason only game on Roblox, this CPU is completely capable of running max graphics on it lol. The shipping was very fast and I love this CPU! I think if you are waiting on a GPU this does the job for a budget gaming CPU…..
