The Ryzen 7 2700 is a non-X CPU, meaning that it won't match the out-of-box performance of the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X. However, in our AMD's Ryzen 7 2700 review, we found that with a few extra volts, the Ryzen 7 2700 can overclock amicably.

That aside, if you're not keen to pry more voltage into your latest acquisition, it still does come with fairly respectable performance, packing eight CPU cores and simultaneous multi-threading, the processor has a 3.2 GHz clock speed but can boost up to 4.1 GHz for single-threaded workloads on its preferential cores. It carries a 65W TDP, and even at this price it comes with AMD’s Wraith Spire CPU cooler, which features an RGB-lit ring around the top.
