So I received my 2700x with the seal broken on the box - Whoever did it wasn't trying to hide it as it was done with a ball point pen. The seal on the shipping box was broken as well but resealed at some point. I can't tell if I received a 'used' part from Amazon, or if USPS inspected the package. The factory TIM is on the wraith prism cooler, and the 2700x itself didn't look like it had prior goop on it.
If it weren't for the fact I want to get this build up and running i'd just deal with exchanging it with Amazon. The CPU appears to be running fine although i'm not familiar enough with this platform to 'know' if I got a dud CPU that some shit hook 'tested' and returned.
Without touching anything i'm seeing 4.0~ghz in AC Odyssey which nearly fully loads an 8 core CPU. If this is 'normal' based on the expert advice of the experts here I won't bother with an exchange.
Thanks
