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

I purchased this CPU as I do a lot of video editing and the more cores the better for what I do. This chip is very fast!

Almost a month now using the new processor!! Its super!! Had some initial trouble installing the fan. Always remember to install such that the direction of the AMD logo is facing outward, not inward, otherwise, you will end up removing the fan and rotating it... which means the CPU paste is no longer usable and you have to clean and replace the factory given paste.. so be careful while watching the installation video. The installation video link in the manual takes you to a Chinese website that does not even play on an android device.

Its just so damn good, easy to drop in to an existing AM4 motherboard, and boom you have everything except PCIe 4.0. I upgraded from a 2700x and even from that solid CPU this is just a beast. Game perf gain is significant, general purpose compute is ridiculous, its just an incredible CPU. AMD is back and slaying so hard.

This works nicely, having up to 24 logical cpus available makes a nice difference. Especially when running virtual machines

good performance..

Its great since Ive upgraded and I can game and stream without any problems for hours

My son and I used this product in our first computer build, im so happy with the result.

I was one of the lucky lottery winners, getting my CPU inside a 27 minute window in mid August when it happened to be available when I checked. As a developer, and occasional gamer, this CPU is just incredible at the $500 price point. Ive had no problems hitting and exceeding the advertised clock speeds, and though it runs a little hot at ambient +20 C, its been absolutely rock solid; massive uplift from my Ryzen 1800.

Same performance as i9-9900k on gaming without overclock (max delta of 10 FPS at all times on 6 major HDR titles). Destroys the i9 in ML/AI processing power. Stock fan cooler is more than enough - even with core clocked to 4600mhz youre only hitting like 72 degrees under 4k extreme stress tests. Remember youre getting wider lanes with this chip so dont skimp on a good M2 NVME (Sabrent 1TB Rocket) or RAM (G.Skill RGB 3200Mhz-3600Mhz). I like the MSI ATX570 ACE with this because it will give you a few good years of support and supports 5000Mhz bandwidth which most cards wont reach for years.

Great product
