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

An hour of tinkering got me to 4.64GHz all-core, with temps below 80C. ASUS 570 TUF gaming, 32GB 3600C16 Ballistix, and Arctic 280mm AIO.

This things a beast for all workloads. Gaming, video editing, photoshop, rendering… this thing rips. Not much else to say here

I replaced my 3900x with this cpu and it was relatively easy to do for myself. You need to purchase a good cooler for this cpu since it does not come with one. This is a bit pricey especially when you add on the cost of a cooler.

Wonderful multi-core/threaded performer! Churns through productivity and gaming workloads very effectively. HOWEVER this beast runs very hot and temperatures sky rocket as soon as it is placed out of idle. Under idle it runs pretty warm, between 38-50 C (your mileage may vary). Once you place a workload on this processor it immediately gets hot very fast going between 60-70 C. Do not cheap out on the AIO cooler on this processor.

I have been trying to get warranty service from AMD for about a month on this processor, all I can get is acknowledgement they received the request.

my workload (audio production) was overwhelming the ryzen 2600 I had previously. Now, the 5900x easily handles the same projects that used to fail and crash. Really a life saver. I will say, it took me several frustrating hours to realise that the BIOS must be updated (using the old CPU) if youre using an older motherboard. Also, the 5900x runs hotter, occasionally surpassing 90 degrees celsius with my AMD wraith stealth cooler, therefore I bought an aftermarket cooler (scythe fuma 2). Im very happy about this CPU.

Viene sin ventilador así que nivel de ruido el del disipador que te compres,calidez pues más o menos en la misma,parecen un poco menos calientes que sus hermanos de la generación anterior,para juegos,cuando haya gráficas en stock a un precio razonable lo podré decir

24 cores, para andar levantando contenedores de docker a diestra y siniestra. Con una 2070 super juegas a 2k 120.fps.

its a CPU!

Highly recommend
