[pepitonub]

I would like to know if i can trust and buy a ryzen 2600 on aliexpress for 105$, seller is top brand, 4.9 stars, 512 reviews, 1869 purchases.

5 stars 96%
4 stars 3%
3 stars 1%.

i`ve talked with him and he said the cpu is brand new but it comes without cooler, Should i trust in this website? never bought here.

Aliexpress is notorious for knock offs. Not to say that everything from that place is a knock off or a scam, and not all sellers are scammers...but there are tons of them on that site.

You might be able to get a real, surprisingly cheap 2600...or it could be a much older AMD processor with the IHS of a 2600 (the IHS being that metal plate on top of the processor)

On top of that shipping is gonna probably take a really long time as most of that stuff comes from China. You might have to wait a month or longer to get it

I say go with something reputable like Amazon or Newegg. It's worth paying the extra ~$30 or $40 to ensure you're actually getting what you paid for.

i`ve been watching this youtuber since 2 years ago, he speaks spanish and he bought one to that seller and he said is original, he also tested it in the same video paired with a rtx 2070 and the r5 2600 perform very well.

If the seller seems reputable and you're willing to take the risk go for it

But I personally still stand by my earlier post

If you're in china, ali is a very reputable company. Outside of china, it's just the normal ccc (cheap chinese crap) and fake sish that they dupe people with. I personally would never buy anything from there or amazon or any other 'marketplace' site that allows selling these illegal imports.
