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

You already know what you’re about to get into. It cost a lot but you won’t need a new processor for years... buuuuut the new intel cpus just dropped and things got a lot better, the i3 runs better than ryzen 5 just saying. It’s a great processor and I’m glad I have it but wish I new about intels new cpus.

The stability, efficiency, and sheer power of this chip and the Zen 3 architecture is really something. This chip does great on gaming, as well as mining and other heavy workloads. I’m not a pro at overclocking, so I mostly just run it at stock clock settings. Can’t stomach paying over $700 for the 16-core so this is what I went with, and I have to say I’m very pleased with it. I do also have a 5800x, and several variants of the 6-core Zen 3 chips with and without an iGPU, and to be honest, for what I do I think they are all about even on the gaming performance. Good chip tho

It’s one of the best CPU’s on the market problem is the one I bought can damaged and it’s past it’s return date. I never opened it until yesterday when I went to build my pc and the problem is it’s past it’s return date.

With 12 cores and 24 threads this is a powerful CPU.

Je m’en sers pour :

If you are looking to get CPU for gaming as well as running multiple applications or virtual machines this is is the cpu that wont disappoint. However be careful when choosing the motherboard as the cheaper 570 motherboards might be very problematic

Other then some technical details with zen CPUs this cpu shreds games rendering de/compression truly a high end part

Super fast CPU!! Took a month and a half to get off of amazom using the hotstock app to alert me when it came it stock and had the buy it now option on. Just smash the back and buy it now until it works. Dont give up!. Overclocked with liquid cooling, and 100% load, i averaged 81c. Totally normal temps are 90-95 for the new cpus. Love it. Keep it AMD

Sent with bent pins doesnt work

Ive been building machines for a long time - and honestly, Ive never heard of this... a CPU without that ability to process graphics. I purchased one of the highest ROG motherboards and purchased this CPU to start the build process. Knowing that the board has HDMI and a display port - figured I was in good shape to start the build. NOPE. After installing the CPU, Memory and hard drive - I had no screen... tried everything no screen... Turns out that the process does not have the ability to process graphics and send out to the motherboard. You need a separate video card - now typically I get a video card at some point but in this case, I had to immediately in order to install Windows.
