AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-core, 24-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

Easy to install, PC runs like a dream

Bit of an over kill for my system, for the amount of stuff I use it for.

Acquistato ad ottimo prezzo per fare un upgrade dal 5600x che comunque era già sufficiente per il mio utilizzo, montato su una B550 msi è stato subito riconosciuto. Ho solamente dovuto riconfigurare le ventole per ridurre la rumorosità delle stesse, mantenendo temperature assolutamente ottimali. Da bios ho impostato un TDP più basso in modo da avere un sistema più efficiente con elevata silenziosità ma che alloccorrenza è in grado di sprigionare le massime prestazioni.

Good product; 3 stars however as I received a cpu that was pre-owned/used. The packaging was opened, and the chip inside had smudges of thermal paste.

I like this cpu however after i purchased it on prime day, i noticed Walmart had it for 25$ less than amazon.

Yeah give this a hard pass unless youre willing to gamble and RMA.

Initially, I didnt want to buy the 5900X as the 5800X served me well enough, though the extra cores would have been a little useful. However, when the sale came, it was better than even when I got my 5800X and that wasnt my real motivator for grabbing this. The real point was that I needed a 3000 series to upgrade someone that I was paying them back for assisting me with something. I initially was checking for a decent 5000 series to upgrade them from, but I was concerned that the system may not handle well and while they didnt need anything gaming oriented, I still wanted to give some teeth where it needed while using a B350 board. So I settled with buying the 5900X to give the 5800X to my father in exchange for the 3600X that he had which was mine originally. Hence the minor step up.

very good but 58003d is better

The best thing about the Ryzen processors is that you have a lot of upgrade options. If you purchased a 3600X, you can stick a 5950X in the same socket. Well, ok, that wont work with every motherboard but generally speaking Im very happy with the plug-and-play nature of AMD cpus over the last few years, its saved me a lot of money.

So I went from AMD 2700x to 5900x and I am happy, not only did it solve my ram speed issue (not being able to utilize over 3200 mhz) but stability issues and long term dormant PC issues. Works for me! Love the new performance on this rig I had originally planned with a 3000 series... this is by far better overall..
