I received my ryzen CPU completely demolished while the other contents were fine, absolutely no safe packaging used, boss is unopened and I will be contacting amazon for a replacement, and rate after that process is complete, as you can see the picture above is what the cpu looks like without me even breaking the seal to get in, which I will not do in Hope's of getting an exchange

This CPU completely demolishes my Xeon based systems, for significantly less money

- An amazing CPU cooler, but very hard to find (check Newegg)

For example, when working in HD, my Avid Symphony systems based on older i7-7700K processors actually outperform this CPU due to higher clock speeds

The only issue is getting accurate CPU temperatures other than using the AMD Ryzen Master software
