> 3 dayCompared to the 3900X, it runs slightly cooler, has a much higher burst, completes all single-threaded tasks approximately 25% faster, and completes all well-threaded tasks approximately 50% faster.

08-06-2025This is my second 5950x. The first one started throwing BSODs after about 6 months of usage. I use it for work, and its not overclocked. Now its BSODing every day several times. I disabled Core Performance Boost and it helped - the BSODs are gone along with 15% performance. Not good. Not sure how long this one will last, but I dont think Ill be buying AMD CPUs in the future.

> 3 dayI upgraded from the Ryzen 3950xt to this one. Great improvement by far. Be aware this is a very hot processor so choose the right cooler AIO or otherwise. Do a lot of research as there is plenty of great coolers out there. Use new products not used as this is expensive.

> 3 dayPretty decent handling and the temps aren’t too bad. Can run hot at times so want to make sure you have a decent amount of air flow.

Greater than one weekI bought this hoping that it would improve my framerates in Destiny 2. I knew that D2 likes Intel more than AMD, but the latest reviews were showing this CPU as outperforming Intel i9s in almost all games tested, so I figured itd help out. Making sure that my GPU wasnt the bottle neck, I turned down all of my settings and was getting 80-95 fps in most areas, thats the same performance I was getting with my previous CPU.
