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

upgraded from my Ryzen 7 to this Ryzen 9 3900X for gaming cache. First off its insanely snappy. Will run a bit hot even with liquid cooling. If you buy this get liquid cooling. So right out of the gate my RTX 2700 Super Founders Edition had insane eye candy and much better speed. Anything you through at it will open at break neck speeds. Your mouse will be your enemy. It will move entirely way too fast due to its processing power. This thing mops the floor with all the Intel Chips ive ever owned. Even my I9 chips dont game or compute as this chip does. Its a must have if you want to play video games and do insane amounts of processing. It operates on all buses on your system board quite efficiently. Ive been debating messing with my memory timing as I have AMD Ryzen Memory Ready RAM which automagically times with the system clock of the CPU and AMD Ready Ram will run at 3600 MHz. You must set your XMP/DOCP option in the BIOS. But Ryzen makes efficient use of PCIE 4.0 and its fast. You wont be disappointed other than it will push some heat but running any gaming on a 70 MEGS of video cache dedicated to video rendering makes this a seriously badd chip for anything you want to do. Its smoking intel and I have been an Intel Fan for so many years until this thing fell into my hands. All I do for a living is work on PCs Desktops Servers, and Land based internet I go home to this and appreciate all it does. It will not disappoint and will stay strong for years. This absolutely buries Intel. Worth every penny I put towards it. Now my Ryzen 7 2700 will sit in its plastic case. Trust me I had to do it. When I play Ghost Recon with my son it looks as though he is Sprinting it renders frames so fast. The game runs so quick with playing with other gamers your mouse will piss you off you will have to lock the frame rates on your mouse and they move so fast on your screen its simply amazing. Eye candy with games coupled with a NVIDIA RTX you will be amazed. Okay not a fanboy of Ryzen but I love this chip. See how it holds up and I am a verified user.

This is my latest review. The boot loop was not due to this motherboard. It was due to AMD 3900X CPU that went faulty. I checked my Antec 750W Power supply, Corsair LPX 16 x 4 = 64 GB DDR4 RAM, 1 TB NVMe Sabrent storage & GeForce GPU on my spare Intel Core i7 based MSI motherboard. They worked just fine. Remaining was just this motherboard and AMD CPU. So I got my friends AMD Ryzen 9 CPU on this motherboard. It worked just fine. I google searched for AMD RMA form, filled it and emailed them with all the above actions I took to validate that my CPU may be faulty. AMD responded over email in a weeks time, then I parceled it to them on given address. I parceled the entire CPU box with Wraith cooler and packaged it properly with bubble paper and Tape. I received my new 3900X CPU in another week. It took 3 weeks but now its working fine. Moral of the story is that Boot Loop Cursor on screen is due to faulty CPU.

Im going to be very blunt. This thing is a rocket ship. I came from the 1700x, which honestly, still pumped out a quality experience with max settings in most games. But go big or go home and cry like a little creature boy. Slap this thing in your system and thank me later. And guess what, it works in an MSI b350. Didnt even have to spend money on a new board. 16gb ram, rtx 2080 work well. Can play in full 4k and stream with buttery smooth experience.

What can i say, best bang for the buck in the high end market. Holy crap this thing is FAST.

This processor is AmaZing in every way, and will just keep getting more, and more efficient as the bios updates and chipset updates keep rolling out allowing the processor to clock at its best, and to be extremely stable in any situation from Content creation to gaming, and beyond. This is the hands down the best processor Ive ever purchased, and I wish the people trying to make a profit from its high demand would please stop that, because the processor is $499 So just please try to be patient, and continue to look on the AMD home page web site, because this processor is worth the wait, and dont spend a penny more that the MSRP.........A very satisfied customer @ $499.00

First computer build so I thought Id splurge a bit and get the Ryzen 9 and oh boy have I not regretted it. This baby hums like nothing Ive had before. Ive only had intel chips in all of my other devices in the past, but have been a long time fan of AMD and finally got to experience it. I threw it on a x570 board and she booted up fine no problem. Tweaking the overclock using Ryzen master has been so easy to use and figure out. Go team AMD!!

Processeur performant, mais pas de SGX sur les AMD, donc pas de lecture possible de Blu-ray UHD 4K, même avec un lecteur certifié UHD-4K. (Seul les processeurs Intel en sont capable). Cest pour moi un bémol pour ce processeur.

This installed easy and had to do a bios upgrade to be able to run this a core speed as advertised. I am not very pc wise, so I do not no how to overclock this cpu.

I bought this for both gaming & work and it may be the best hardware purchase Ive ever made.

Its been over a year and still loving it!
