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

I had a really bad experience at first. The thermal paste wasnt good. It was very adhesive. Actually unseated my 1700x ryzen 7 at one point. I was able to straighten the one pin on that, get a new moba, update the bios with the 1700x, and then finally get the 5900x to work.

TL;DR; the CPU is excellent at what it does (workstation/gaming), I see no reason to adopt Intel’s attempt at a new chip design for quite a few years, assuming it becomes the norm. Also, please ensure you cool this properly, it needs a good cooler, especially with DOCP settings on RAM.

buying this lower than what it was orginally is a steal and its mega fast

Ordered this to upgrade my 5 to a 9 ,no issues ,was a great deal, and worked with my board right away

This was a tough choice, the 5800X3D was the other option. Since AM4 is to be retired and DDR5 prices are not to settle for at least a couple years (this is 04/2022), it was important to have something that could hold up under multiple scenarios and for that time. In the end the lack of overclocking, the low Turbo speed and the poorer productivity showing of the 5800X3D swayed me towards the 5900X.

After a week I would have constant crashes. Popped everything out and still had crashes with the 5900x. Popped my 3600 in and the WHEA bsods were a thing of the past. Customer support wasnt very helpful either, they just told me to return it and buy it again. On top of that, it took forever to return my money

New Build, FAST! AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, MSI MegX570 Unify Mobo, Artic Liquid Freezer II 20, GSkill 32GB, MSI GTX 1660, Thermaltake G42 Tower HUGE, Cooler Master Gold 750W, Seagate X16 14TB Drive, 970 Evo 1TB and Etc. Yummy Responsive quiet and very fast.

Just a beast

By far this is the best CPU Ive had in recent memory, switched from a FX-8320 and trust me, its night and day difference, satisfied with my purchase.
