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

absolute insanity coming from a 2500k > this

I have always been an Intel user all of my life, but after my 5820k started getting a bit slow for my needs, I started looking for an upgrade. I have always thought of AMD as something that is considered to be a budget low performance build, but this has changed with the Ryzen Zen 2 architecture. I was split between either the Intel i7 9900K or this chip. Just looking at the raw performance specs for the Ryzen already shifted my attention away from Intel for the first time. The multi-core performance on this chip destroys Intels by a long shot. Sure, the single core performance is better on the Intel which means it is slightly better for gaming, but who only games on their PC? For someone like me who also works with video rendering/gaming streaming, there was only one clear winner. I have been able to throw anything at the 3900x, and it does not even struggle at all. My video render times at 4K have dropped by more than 3x. When I stream at slow preset for x264, my CPU is only using at max 20% load.

My first AMD chip since K6, very very pleased I must say.

This processor is amazing for work in rendering and simulation without getting into the Threadripper platform.

This is the highest level I would go to for a budget chip. Works great. Runs hot so upgrade the fan system. Definitely the fastest ship Ive had.

Rende bene, scalda poco e supporta le pcie 4.0. Consigliato prenderlo senza il dissipatore stock: meglio abbinarlo ad un dissipatore serio come un noctua o a liquido tripla ventola cosicché da avere sempre temperature stabili con rumore decente.

Awesome CPU that runs cool and fast .

arrive tres vite je lutilise sur tout pour le streaming :)

Buono

I tend to do a lot of things that push my GPU and CPU hard. I noticed problems with my old Intel processor/motherboard combo in the past with such habits, but I havent had any issues with this newish model by AMD.
