AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-core, 24-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

This 5900x is made on 5th week of 2022.

It is doing its job.

I upgraded from the 2700X a month ago, and this has been an outstanding CPU so far. It does run hotter than Id expect a CPU to run (Im sitting around 80°C on modern triple As), but thats the temperature AMD says is expected under heavy load, so its not that big of a deal. Im running a Noctua NH-U12A.

If you can connect with one at MRRP it is an amazing processor. I paired this with a Asus Dark Hero motherboard and with the OC switcher (only available with the Dark Hero) I have a single core boost of 5Ghz (utilizing PBO overclock curve) and a set overclock of 4.7Ghz all core. Simply put there isnt a better processor on the market today for gaming and in productivity workloads its second only to the 5950X (because it of course has more cores). While the extra cores of the 5950X would sometimes be nice this processor runs cooler and at 4.7Ghz can outperform the 16 core 3950X in some workstation based applications. Simply put its an amazing processor, a flagship in every definition of the word.

Great product, big box for a small item

Become Mouse not processor

so i had the ryzen 7 5700g and i bearly got 70 fps in most games switched to this guy and now i get 150-200fps in almost every game VERY NICE under load it stays around 65-70c

Firstly check to see if your motherboard can actually take a ryzen 9 Expensive but if you can get a good deal, then maybe it’s worth it..

Overclocked this cpu to 4.6 ghz and its Awesome! 12 cores of pure nitro. Fast Fast Fast!!!

Ive been on AM4 (B550) for awhile now, Ive had a 3700x, 5800x, and now this guy. This CPU is plenty for gaming, photo and video editing, etc. Couldnt be happier with my purchase (roughly 6 months of ownership now), especially since I got it on sale!
