AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

PC would turn on but no BIOS screen and nothing else would show on my monitor. Im sure its a great CPU but the one I got was defective

Compre este procesador para la pc de mi hermana, pensando en que sería para diseño gráfico y juegos no competitivos.

I dislike that this cpu requires motherboards that need to be flashed, and flashing a motherboard is a very tedious process of trial and error and buying multiple usb sticks just to flash the bios so you can get this cpu to even work. AMD has really gone downhill this generation. They should of at least waited until more motherboards were available that were compatible with this processor.

Given the price of lower end parts thanks to shortages this is actually a good bang for you buck

My first processor had many WHEA errors. AMD replaced it and the new one works really well.

Al principio estaba un poco asustado por las tempersturas de 60-70°C sin hacer nada, o hasta 90°C con carga.

I use the R7 5800X paired with a RTX 2070 Super for 1440p gaming (mostly FPS games) and multiple other applications simultaneously. It performs as Id expected: better than the R5 3600, but consumes more energy and outputs more heat as a result. I use a combination of good cooling (280mm AIO) and a moderate under-volt to maintain high performance and reasonable temperatures.

Exactly what you should except from a mid-high-end CPU, run well and loads well, but is very very hot, I place my hand over the computers exhausts every now and then and it is like a little heater, to the point where I leave it on some days, and it offsets the rooms A/C. Especially on high performance applications. But now I have no worry when I want to run ultra-settings on most games 2022 and back. Still not cutting edge to the point that you could run ultra-settings and ray tracing and all that on the newest games. I have a 3080 12 gb Nvidia based graphics card.
