Awesome, let us all know how it performs.
Notice it is a Week 31 CPU so pretty old for Zen2!
Will do, but it probably will not be till next week when I'm on holiday. (yay!)
I have xmas parties every day this week, hence I will be in no fit state to be using a screw driver lol.

What ram,mb,cooler you using with it? Just curious
I have one these heatsinks I've never used hanging around: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/be-quiet-dark-rock-4-cpu-cooler-hs-01d-bq.html
It's only an 65w CPU so this will handle it no problem.
If I hadn't of already had one to use I probably would I gone with a Coolermaster 212 Evo or an Snowman. (something cheap and cheerful is all you need).
And for the RAM... I ordered some more b-die because I know it works well with Ryzen and it OCs like an champ.

Blooming heck, utter bargain then. Has to be a shoe in for the best value CPU of 2019.
Well that's an awesome price find, pretty much half the price of an 3600.
Personally I think AMD should re-consider selling these CPUs outside of Asia/China.
If this has proved anything it's if we want something, we are still going to find a way to get it (it's an small world after all).

Can someone send me a trust please as to where these are being ordered from?

Google is your friend
Ordered one on 9/12 after seeing it mentioned on Toms in October.
£91 with free delivery. Arrived 18/12 - No charges - value $18 LoL
A good replacement for a R5 1400.
There are multiple AliExpress stores selling them - mine was from SZCPU store.
4.1 all core out the box with 1.31v - 63C after a few loops of CB15.
It may well do 4.2/4.3 on Air, but I'm not after gaining a few Mhz for too much extra heat.
Scores 1095 MC CB 15
515 SC 3000 MC on CPU-Z Bench.
Best bargain new CPU I've seen in 20 years computing.
