MICRO CENTER AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D CPU Processor Bundle with ASUS B650E MAX Gaming WiFi AM5 ATX Motherboard (DDR5, PCIe 5.0, 3X M.2, Wi-Fi 6E)

I bought this for my son. It was an upgrade from a 2 year old system, DDR4, Ryzen 5000. I migrated the 9070 graphic card over. I figured he would see a 30% improvement in gaming from the mb and CPU ... but based on FPS of Apex, ARC Raiders, and Expedition 33 ... it is literally 300% faster. Complaints - Boot time for set-up *slow*. I thought we had a bad board or CPU... just had to wait like a minute, and only have one stick in, and it came up .. No POST codes - rely on the on-board graphic for initial set-up. Memory slot selection was not intuitive, documentation was hard to find on-line with the detail that I wanted. It really would be 3 stars. Maybe 4 with the price ... but my son was so thrilled with the performance, and I was so surprised, that I am giving it 5. Do the BIOS update as soon as you start up. And if you get EXPO memory be sure to turn it on in BIOS. Remember to order a cooler - I had everything else.

High quality, looks great, cost effective, works great!!! Highly recommend For gaming, lots of usb ports 2.0, 3.0, type C etc, fast and efficient

This combo worked out well for my business client. The system posted without a BIOS update. This build should be more than enough for business applications, and maybe a little gaming for the kids. The speed the system has is pretty impressive for the cost. The built in gpu functionality made it a great choice to reduce cost for business clients. This board features NVMe technology which will make boot times in seconds.

The CPU and Motherboard bundle arrived very well packaged. It brings a certificate that has passed all the testing. Performing really good, easy to install, and easy to update the drives from manufacture site.

Nice combo. Works as expected
