If it doesn't come with a cooler you want to use, get a tray.

I was thinking these were broken or "these are all duds, get rid of them wink wink" CPUs.

Honestly though I like the experience of getting a fancy box with cool marketing and the experience of that, even if it’s more expensive.

When I was buying parts for my PC, the tray was about 10% cheaper than the "normal" CPU

I bought my brand new Ryzen 7 5700x3D as a tray unit and it's been working phenomenal for almost a year already

Tray ones are often a bit cheaper here in EU, they're quite popular
