So is a U14-S considered high end cooling?
The same.What does the 2700x pull at the same speed?
I was set on the 2700x for my upgrade...but I like this price.
https://www.hardocp.com/news/2018/05/30/amd_ryzen_2700_cpu_on_sale_at_ebayneweggUnless I'm missing it, is there a [H] review on the 2700? I read the one on the 2700X, and that's what sold me. Or is it essentially the same, but clocked lower?
Thank you kind sir! 2700X it likely is then. I don't know whether an original Corsair H100 is "high end cooling" or not (probably not), and at the very least I would need to buy an AM4 mount. That, and it is probably blasphemy, but stock speeds are good enough for me for now.

Wow only 99 of these sold and this deal has been going on for over five days now. AMD has a real problem on their hands. They can't even sell their top chips at fire sale prices. These will get cheaper. I really thought these would be sold out and gone by now at this price. I can't wait to see how low these will go on Black Friday this year.
I had it in cart for 229.50 with 10% ebay bux this weekend; still couldn’t justify the price premium and hassle of selling the 1700x for the additional performance it gives

Yeah I'm in a similar situation with my 1800x. I'm waiting for them to hit around $200, personally. And I think they will get there on Black Friday. I feel bad for AMD. Ryzen is a great product and they can't even sell them. Their margins are going to be brutal once the dust settles.I had it in cart for 229.50 with 10% ebay bux this weekend; still couldn’t justify the price premium and hassle of selling the 1700x for the additional performance it gives

I bought it for 204 shipped with the 20% off ebay coupon today. Couldnt hold back any longer.
This deal must have died less than an hour ago then, I just tried to do the same but it's back up to $285.
The question for me is it is worth paying $53 more to get a 2700X over a 2700? I can skip the OCing headache, get the better cooler and it should be able to boost to 4.35GHZ with the X right?
