> 3 dayWas worried about hearing how got these run, but with a 280mm aio cooler master cooler Im never cracking 50c after hours of gaming. All the cores are within 3c of each other and have had no issues. Idle is about 6c over ambient room temps. Could not be happier with this upgrade from a 4 core i7 performance wise. Can now run my games on ultra settings at 144hz and it feels like new games!

> 3 dayCPU was relatively easy to install. It performs very well. I used it for games and programming mainly. I also paired it with an rx6600 GPU and it works perfectly. On idle/web browsing CPU usage is around 1%, and with games, usage is typically 30%. The temperatures are usually below 60C with a budget cooler.

> 3 dayIm not here to talk benchmark numbers or min/maxing or whatever. I paired this CPU with a Noctua air cooler and an EVGA RTX 3080 FTW, and I cannot be happier with the results. Temps below 65 degrees under load and zero issue while gaming at 1440p.

> 3 dayProcessor runs reasonably cool, typically 20c less than my GPU on the same water-cooled loop. I installed Windows 11, and it shows 20 cores. Benchmarking with RDR2 shows a laughable difference from an I7-6700K, which is a 7 year old processor; it was 2-3fps on average. Its all about the GPU folks, the CPU after 7 years makes just about 1% difference.

> 3 dayTitle sums it up. Doesnt matter how good whatever is on release if it doesnt exist at list price. Yes I checked the invoices on 2 5900X purchases. Both were in July 2021, so effectively the high end Ryzen chips didnt exist in places like Consumer Reports until mid 2021, when the tech is old.
