very solid for a gamer configuration
A very convincing latest-generation CPU for a gamer configuration.
You will need to pay attention to its power consumption and therefore to the power supply required. For a gamer configuration, provided you have a relatively powerful graphics card, an 850W power supply will be necessary. It may be advisable to activate the ECO mode on this CPU, for a sharp reduction in power consumption and heat output with a fairly small reduction in performance. Very interesting to configure. This mode is not active as standard.
For cooling, a watercooling kit is recommended. Note that in my case, my old kit (a Cooler Master MasterLiquid 240) was still compatible, as indicated on the manufacturer's website (https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/pages/cooling/we-are-ready-for-your-amd-am5-socket/#!). Find out about your current kit before buying a new one, as it's very likely that the old one is compatible, although this is not indicated in the latest documentation.
