CPU was bought on Amazon brand new last year, tried my best to clean the thermal paste as much as I possible, it has a year of usage, has been running great for me with no issues whatsoever, just decided to upgrade to a more higher end CPU for my gaming and productivity needs. Great for running games at 1080p high to 1440p high, depends on what games and settings you would like to use along with the refresh rate you're playing on. This CPU has 6-cores, 12-threads, using the Zen 5 architecture. It features a 3.9 GHz base clock and a 5.4 GHz max boost. TDP is 65W. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, thanks for taking the time to check this listing!
