AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-core, 32-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

Ended up needing to buy a second one of these after the first one turned out to be the cause of constant crashing on a new pc build. No luck sending it back to this conpany but they were nice enough to sell me a replacement at full price. Next time I’ll go straight to the manufacturer

I mean, yeah its great but I cant really tell too much difference between my old i7 CPU and this one. I just wanted the bragging rights for someone with a lot of cores. Its the GPU thats important if youre looking to game.

Mark up is high. great for productivity. Id get 5900 for most non edge case scenarios though given the price difference. It has more cache per core, and that shows in a lot of workloads. Intel is also more compelling now thankfully.

Excellent quality and powerful. AMD is back in the game after so many years.

YOU WOULD BE ON OOF THE FEW IF YOU FIND ONE FOR MSRP. OTHER WISE NO COMPLAINTS SO FAR

This chip is a massive beast. It will make your ram and ssd feel slow with how quickly it tears through workloads. I use it for statistical analysis and for encoding video and the integer performance is absolutely incredible. Works out of the box on Ubuntu 20.10 without any issues. This thing is the best chip you can get on a micro atx and its absolutely incredible. Could probably benefit from a lot more L3 because its just too fast for even the fastest ram kits out there.

the promotion game thing is scam you will spend 15 min filling out everything to claim it and you get sorry cant process at this time and that is the code has been used and you GET NOTHING. i call that fraud.

Idk what the warmth or thiccness is but this chip is MAD THICCC

I replaced a 2700x with this and the CPU.does run hotter than the 2700x as I know that was a question I had but not bad maybe 10 degrees at about 108 F degrees at idle if that and maybe 10 degrees at about 151 F degrees stressed, loved

I built a new machine using this processor and an X570 motherboard. It is just insanely fast.
