Includes a Beefy Cooler

RIP Intel

With Slight OC's these can run RTX 2070/2080 with minimal margin of error.

Add this ASUS TUF B450M-PLUS Gaming AM4 mATX and with a -30 budle price it's $56 nice Mobo to OC on the Cheap!

I like this memory... Ballistix Sport LT 8Gb DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) buy 2 sticks for $106, not any great price but should work super on that B450M and probably provides some more OC'n head room.

top it off with this XFX RX 580 GTS Black Edition 1405 MHz OC+, 8GB for $190 and 2 Free Games. and the whole set-up is $432. That's a really nice gaming machine base.

I've got a 1600X. It overclocks nicely to 4.1GHz and mine doesn't need a beefy cooler. It runs around 41°C. Unfortunately, It costs twice as much.
