AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8-Core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler

I love this CPU, this and the 3700X are top dogs in my book. Other CPUs that cost more, dont deliver enough of a boost in performance to warrant the price difference. I had the 3700X with the Wraith Prism RGB Cooler in my last system and I took it up just a little getting the 3800X in my new system. This Ryzen 7 3800X paired with the MSI B550 Tomahawk motherboard and 2x16gb of RGB 3600 Ram really give you some outstanding performance.

Not sure what to add here that cant be found from more reputable tech sites so Ill keep it simple. This is the first time Ive put together my own PC and installing the CPU was simple. Had an X570 Motherboard so everything fit perfectly in place including the heatsink. Plenty of thermal past was already applied so no need to get extra. Performance is great but like I said read actual benchmarks and such elsewhere. Very happy with the purchase.

No cooler you are kidding me

nice processor

Top CPU. läuft auch auf B450 Boards mit Gen 3nd Firmware Update!

Für mich zur Ersten Generation ein Quantensprung.Im direkten Vergleich zum Ersten 7 1700 liegen Welten.Ich bin mit dem Ryzen 7 3800X zufrieden auch wenn sein kleinerer Bruder etwas schneller ist.Für meine Ansprüche mehr als ausreichend und es ist immer noch Luft nach oben.

Fantastic upgrade to my 1600. It boosts to 4.3 ghz without any tweaking, and single-core performance is finally on par with Intel. Paired with RTX 2080 at 1440p and immediately noticed the difference in gaming, particularly in CPU-intensive scenarios involving AI and highly-populated areas. At 1080p the FPS increase is even more noticeable. 8 cores also mean I can have a ton of things running/open in the background. Very satisfied with purchase.

Fast processor but the main issue is the high temperature cores so you will need a water cooling kit and I recommend Corsair

Used the stock Wraith Prism CPU cooler for a few weeks. Noticed that the CPU ran warm and the cooler fan was noisy. Replaced stock cooler with a Noctua NH-D15 and it is much better now. I am happy with the 3800X CPU performance. In hindsight, I would go with the 3700X CPU instead.

Good price
