This processor kicks butt

super happy with the CPU runs like a dream and all i have to say is update bios and you will have zero issues

When from a AMD 6X Phenom II to an AMD Ryzen 1800X to this Ryzen 3900X. First off I will have to admit that I wanted to buy it from my friends a Amazon.com but I was not fast enough even though I tried from midnight July 7 for 4 hours. Just too may people trying at the same time. My build is as follows: Aorus X570 Xtreme (no regrets), two year old 32GB Corsair DDR-3733 CL17 set at 3600 CL16 16-18-18-37-54 (could only get 3466 at CL18 with Ryzen1800X), Samsung 960 Pro M.2 1TB PCI-Express 3.0 (will upgrade to PCI-Express 4.0 in the future), 2X WD 1TB HDs in RAID 0, Asus ROG GTX 1080 Ti, 3.5 year old Corsair H80i GT water cooler, 6 ugly Noctua premium fans (you cant see) in a Corsair Carbide 200R case. This system is ultra quick in all productive work beyond expectations. It is very quiet and runs cool even under load due to the VRMs in the Gigabyte X570 Extreme and my ugly but fast and quiet Noctua fans with the Gigabyte SIV fan control software. I do not play games, however I do entertain myself flying Eagle Dynamics DCS World simulation jets which is based on Direct-X 11. With all DCS World settings set to maximum and flying over the most extreme terrains my worst case FPS dropped to 45-48 with the 1800X. Now with the 3900X and that same scenario my worst FPS is 62-65 and most of the time is above 85-90 FPS. Bottom line is that single thread IPC is so close to the competition you just dont care and multi-threaded performance is beyond insane all while running cool and using less power. Also, the system is now every stable compared to the 1800X which became twitchy when the settings were pushed to the limit. I will note that I could have put this Ryzen 3900X into my old Aorus X370 Gaming-7 MB but that would have been it. I now have an upgrade path for the future. I highly recommend this CPU. There is no downside.

Overall amazing cpu for the money, program compiles so fast with this. One thing that drove me nuts though is the idle temperature and the fact that every little program pinging the cpu for some quick process drives the chip into boost mode; causing the idle temperature to spike up and down like a roller coaster.

I was running a R7 2700 overclocked to 4ghz in a workstation for scientific data analysis (next generation sequencing). I thought it was a pretty good setup. I had been thinking about the new Ryzen 3000 cpus but figured the upgrade probably wasnt worth it. Couldnt stop wondering if itd speed up my work so I finally just did it. And am I glad I did!

Best CPU on the market

I must have had a duff CPU as mine gave up after about 10 months and it didnt even get that much use. It took well over a month to get a replacement which wasnt good as this was for my business PC. Its just as well I had a spare computer or Id have been in trouble due to the amount of time it took to get a replacement sorted out under the warranty!

I upgraded to this from an I5-4690k
