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

Programming my Rust and C++ code is so much faster now!

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

Pared this with a MSI MEG X570 ACE and found that I can do 4.5 all core stable (working on getting better cooling as heat from 16 cores needs to go somewhere). It beats the heck out of my Skylake X 10 core i9 in Cinebench. No it doesnt have 44 pcie lanes that the i9 has, but I never needed it anyway, just 32gigs ram, 2 NVME and a video card. If you are strictly gaming the 5900x should be enough, but throw in any content creation and the 5950xs 16 cores is beast mode for sure.

The original label from AMD clearly states it is a 5900X, it is re labeled to be a 5950X. The heat spreader on the CPU itself is labeled 5900X.

Good Processor for gaming, compiling, and multithreaded work. A little overkill, but the 5900x was out of stock so I bought this one.

Don’t buy this it’s a scam, I’ve never written a review in my life till now I recently received my AMD Ryzen 9 5950X about a week ago and me thinking it was Legit turned out to be 100% fake I was wondering why it wouldn’t post and it would overheat and the pins don’t Don’t even match with the real 5950x

Perfect

I have a week and a half with the processor and my pc shuts down when I am rendering

Make sure you cool this thing well, they like to run warm out of the box at 105W. That being said..My 2 year old Gigabyte Aorus B450 Elite with 64GB of 2667-DDR4 running a Ryzen 7 2700 (8-core 16-thread) assembled genomes at 50% of the speed using the number cores against my Gigabyte Aorus X570 Pro Wi-Fi with 128GB DDR4 3600 running a Ryzen 9 5950x (16-cores 32-threads). Just goes to show how much faster the cores on the new processor are in conjunction with the high frequency memory and X570 board. So now that I have twice as many cores for bioinformatics, my assemblies will be 4X faster...Hot Dammm. You can now assemble a human genome at home, if so desired.

Intel is still giving us 8 cores and you know you need to buy a separate CPU
