AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

Didn’t even work

Lovely chip, a pretty sizable upgrade over my 3700x. Games run a fair bit faster, and the Wraith Prism box cooler my old CPU came with is just barely enough to tame this chip. So I didnt even need to bother with upgrading my cooling solution.

Es sollte eine gute Kühlung vorhanden sein.

This processor gets extremely hot if you do not undervolt it. and I am not saying this with a bad pc setup, I got a 3k pc build with extremely good cooling. but as soon as you undervolt it (enough tutorials on youtube) you will be very pleased with this extremely good cpu! it is very strong and for those who want it overclocking potential.

This CPU came shipped from Amazon in a bubble envelope. The products box was dented, as one might expect. The chip itself was not damaged, fortunately.

Fantastic processor. Have absolutely nothing bad to say about it.

Good and medium budget processor

Definitely a big improvement over my previous Ryzen 7 3800x. Recommend to any gamers out there looking for a boost in frames!

Good for gaming and everything, but my EVGA motherboard manually overclocked it, and now I get 52C when I start the PC. I think I need to get Portable AC to cool this thing.

Did not want this CPU. Wanted a 5900X / 5950X. But, future reader, if you look back on the years 2020-2021, youll see that this was nearly impossible. Even these 5800s were being scalped at ugly markups for 6+ months. However, once they were regularly in stock, I grabbed one at MSRP after choosing it over the 5600X. Im not disappointed at all. Mostly wanted it for gaming @ 1440p / 4K, and it does that without issue. Very nice upgrade from my 2700X, which wasnt a bad CPU at all. All the extra cores and threads are great for my home recording studio work. Very happy with it. Not sure if the MSRP is the right price, but I think thats because Ive spent 25+ years building computers and AMD chips were always much less expensive than their Intel counterparts. However, since these outperform pretty much every Intel consumer CPU, Ill go ahead and grudgingly say AMD can price them a little higher than what weve come to expect.
