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

If youre looking to upgrade your CPU then the Ryzen 7 5800X is a great choice and will get the job done!

I have been an Intel user for most of my computing life. When Ryzen first came out and I heard how well it was for the price I started to change my mind about AMD. Then my son got a Ryzen and then convinced my other son to get one as well. After using both of their computers, there was no convincing for me. I just went straight for it.

Im so pleased with my 5800X CPU. I bought this to replace my 2700X and the difference in performance is huge. I didnt realize how badly the 2700X was bottlenecking my system, especially when it comes to games that use Direct X (Most do). This is because Direct X relies more heavily on the CPU than the GPU unlike Vulkan. Ive tried over a dozen games so far and I have improved frame rates on all, some like iRacing quite drastically which gave me an extra 100fps at the same graphics settings, no joke! Other games like Far Cry 5 Ive seen at least a 15fps improvement and the new Resident Evil 2 remake I got an extra 50fps. For reference, I have a Sapphire 5700 XT Nitro+ SE for my GPU and Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x32Gb at 3600Mhz. I plugged the new chip into my MSI X470 Gaming Pro Carbon motherboard and it works without any issues so far after a month of use. If using this board, you need to flash/upgrade to the latest bios for support so make sure you do that before upgrading to this chip. Also important, dont turn on the Game Boost feature in the bios as it will actually slow down this CPU for some reason. Ive also tried multitasking, running several apps at the same time while having my browser open to at least 50 tabs and this CPU handled it no problem and without a stutter. The only downside is its quite expensive but I would definitely buy it again if I had to decide again. If you can spare the cash then do it, you wont be disappointed.

This CPU works so well. Its has one of the great SPEED possible. Its much better than Intel in like every way possible. Very energy efficient as well.

No problem with this purchase at all. Works like a beast. Overclocking is easy too but theres no need to as its powerful at 3.8GHz

Awesome CPU- very energy efficient compared to intel offerings. Amazing performance so far.

Yes

Der Ryzen 5800x bietet mir ein spürbares leistungsplus zum 2700x den ich zuvor verwendet habe. Wird bei gleichem Kühler nicht wirklich wärmer als sein Vorgänger.

Rendimiento muy bueno, lo uso para trabajar y para jugar, y hasta ahora ni siquiera ha sido necesario hacerle Overclock.

The item arrived as described and works perfectly. Heat isnt an issue with Dark Rock 4 air cooler.
