I paired this CPU with Asus' PRIME A520M-K motherboard, 16 GB of RAM, and opted to only utilise its stock wraith cooler. Ran some tests with its integrated Radeon GPU, and was surprised at the decent performance on games such as Tomb Raider (2013), achieving FPS numbers between 45-60 consistently with medium and high presets at 1080p (temperatures were solid at around 50-60 degrees C). For small tasks such as word document processing and web browsing, as well as coding, it is more than up to the task.

This CPU is great and has surprisingly decent integrated graphics. It comes with a beefy cooler and therefore runs very cool and quiet. It also barely sips power. It outperforms my old Core i7 and has seriously impressed me. It makes for a great CPU and iGPU combo if you aren't going to use your own graphics card.

While I would have loved to get a new Ryzen 7 APU this will do for now. It is a good upgrade on my old 2400G as it runs cooler thanks the IHS being soldered to the processor. The stock cooler is also better than the old APU it replaced.

It is a great CPU, with good integrated graphics; will it be able to play current AAA titles, not really but it makes for a great part in a previous gen small gaming PC. Temps are solid and AMD is really easy to overclock, the fan does a great job but no RGB.
