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

My current PC came with a 12-core AMD 3900X with a base speed of 3.8 GHz and max clock speed of 4.6 GHz. This new 5950X has a base clock speed of 3.4 GHZ and max rated speed of 4.9 GHz.

Looking for a 16 core 32 monster CPU for heavy duty production? Dont wanna go all the way to Threadripper? This chip has it.

As I expected

This is one amazing cpu, using it for rendering with V-Ray and Corona, it is a beast.

Missing processor upon opening! shipping container was not damaged. Interior packaging looked different than display and was opened/damaged upon arrival. They should do a better job at securing these expensive items from their workers. Was a simple circle piece of tape holding the case together after all.

Bought this at $799 tow weeks ago. It never go above 3.8 GHZ multicore on stock setting. With PBO at 4.1Ghz multicore. 25000 score on cinebench r23 about the same as my 3950x score. I think i got a bad chip. No wonder why they sold it cheap at $799. Going to return it.

better than cpu lock mechanisim

great

Overall great cpu. Definitely worth it.

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
