## Questions & Answers

**Q: is thermal paste included?**
A: Lies. Mine did NOT come with thermal paste. Only reason I bought this combo was cuz it included everything !

**Q: wraith spire with LED?**
A: As others mentioned, the 1700 comes with an LED-lit Wraith Spire cooler.  To be more clear, this product's description says it comes with a Wraith Spire cooler.  This product  DOES come with a Wraith Spire cooler, but this one does not have LEDs like the Wraith Spire that comes with the 1700.

**Q: Is this processor overclockable**
A: I have the included cooler and have been running 3.7 on all 6 cores for over a year with no problems in heat whatsoever.  Just set your multiplier to 37 in the bios and that's it.  Tech Deals on Youtube is who convinced me to do this.  This is a link directly to the part about overclocking this CPU.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-30Ab4l2apc&t=1294s

**Q: Does anyone know if the ryzen 1600 will bottleneck a gtx 960 4gb?**
A: No. If anything the 960 will bottle neck the cpu.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice product, Reasonable price.
*by F***S on 13 November 2019*

Just upgraded to ryzen from previous fx series. Although it is from 1st generation but better than fx at least. Of course 2nd & 3rd generation ryzens are more efficient/powerful. However, it can be overclocked to 3.7ghz easily with a B450 motherboard, fast RAM and stock cooler, to get similar performance. Besides, this would be the cheapest 6 core 12 thread processor. When compared with price to performance (comparing to other ryzen processors from 1st generation) it is should be a logical choice. Go for it only if you already have or willing to buy a dedicated graphics card. Without a dedicated GPU your pc wont boot to display screen. If a dedicated graphics card is not in the list then opt for 2200g, 3200g, 2400g etc.........Update: No lag at all. No bottlenecks when gaming. Using a coolermaster hyper 212 instead of stock cooler. Now I can overclock even further (that doesnt mean stock cooler isnt efficient). Stock wraith cooler is great but I like to overclock and test the limits of this CPU. Hence using an aftermarket cooler. Temperature doesnt climb beyond 65 degrees when put under heavy load. Overall worth the money and effort.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice 👍, happy to oo

I'm a editor, I used daily 6 to 8h, no problems with premiere pro and after effects, this is a budget best CPU

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hell of a CPU
*by C***H on 9 April 2018*

i bought this CPU in September 2017. Today is 9th April 2018. 7 months of me using it have been nothing but great. First of all, my complete PC specs:AMD Ryzen 5 1600,ASUS Strix B350-f gaming,2x8GB GskillTrident Z RGB RAM 3000 MHz,Zotac Geforce GTX 1060 6GB,Seasonic M12ii520,Samsung evo 750 250GB SSD,WD Blue 500GB SSD, 3x1TB HDD (WD+Hitachi),Coolermaster masterbox lite 5 RGBI have not yet overclocked the CPU as honestly, I havent felt the need to. If I ever upgrade to a 144 Hz monitor, then I will OC the CPU. For now, I am getting amazing performance for the 75 Hz monitor that I have. I am getting more than 60 FPS average on every game I have played till now. DOOM, GTA V, Witcher 3, Far cry 4, Destiny 2 etc. All settings set to ultra. I keep the nVidia gameworks off though because only those are the settings that kill the FPS and don't result in much better eye candy.My ambient temps are 22 to 28 degrees celsius. My CPU has never gone above 55 degrees celsius while gaming. One reason for that is that this CPU is not being utilized very much by games. And, when I run, e.g. AIDA or prime95, the CPU temps never even touch 65. That on the stock cooler with all cores working at 100%. AMD is NOT HOT guys. Do not let the fools fool you.When I edit a full HD video, I am able to export a one hour long video in half an hour flat. Full HD, not compressed. Resulting video size: ~18GB That is one helluva performance, man.
