AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-core, 24-thread unlocked desktop processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler

Moving from an ancient AMD 2.4GHZ quad core processor, I decided to go big with this one. Definitely doesnt disappoint! Doing a lot of video editing and conversions used to take a few hours for HD, now its a few mins. Theres obviously a debate for liquid cooling, but unless you want to overclock the supplied cooler should be alright & the mirage lighting effect on the fan is pure eye candy.

Seems like a good upgrade for older am4 boards what I dont like it doesnt boost to max frequency on an msi x470 gaming plus.

I am really happy with my purchace it has never missed a beat runs my patriot memory at its rated 4000 . The new algorithms mean over clocking is no longer needed as the chip uses all it has when called for , upgrade your motherboard bios when you get set up as there has been several updates for this chip since launch , its a very good value for money chip considering what else is available in the market at this level .

What a monster.

Runs like a beast tops out at 80c under 45 min stress test.

Amazons customer service getting worse over the years. I had one of the worst experiences ever with the delivery and customer service during that. By the way this is the second time I post a review about this. First one wasnt posted by Amazon.

absolute insanity coming from a 2500k > this

Don’t just believe some benchmark were single app text. Get real world performance metrics.

This is exceeded every one of my expectations in every conceivable metric. There is no better value. This is it. this is what the best is like!

I always used AMD processors and Im really happy with this one. Jumping from Ryzen 5 1600x to this I dont even need a benchmark test to feel the difference in my pc.
