AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-core, 24-thread unlocked desktop processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler

This cpu is a beast, it tears down everything I throw at it. I upgraded from an i7-6700k and use it for streaming/gaming.

If you need to read reviews; get this cpu

I bought this one because the 3950x wasnt available. Is awesome but I suggest that mix it with a x570 Motherboard.

Der Prozessor ist einfach großartig. Wer Leistung braucht (oder einfach gerne angibt) hat hier eine tolle Option.

This is an absolute beast. At stock speeds this thing installed Windows 10 in 5 minutes, same thing for photoshop and lightroom. There is no wait time for anything task I throw at this thing. Everything happens instantly. Best decision I ever made

If you have any doubts, I have been using intel for years and this is my favorite cpu Ive ever owned. Insanely fast and will be the best purchase you make.

The new Ryzen 3000 series chips are amazing. I was looking to replace my aging Haswell (4th Gen) Intel Core i7 4790k with something more modern - and when I read about the new Ryzen 3000 series, I waited an extra 6 months to re-build my PC...and boy am I glad I did! I cut encoding times for a 1080p 2 hour movie from 2 hours (near real-time) to < 30 minutes!! And through the power of the PCI-e 4.0 that this enables (when paired with an X570 motherboard), my storage access is now running at 5GB/sec write and read (with a PCI-e 4.0 enables NVMe SSD). Everything is blazing fast even when I have a ton of stuff running. If you’re looking for the ultimate chip for content creation, coding, and a very good option for gaming also (even if it gives up a few FPS to the highest end intel chips), look no further!! And it even comes with a passable cooler (if you don’t mind a bit of noise and don’t plan to overclock) with nice RGB LEDs built in.

This processor is a class on its own. I used to be a Intel lover to death but let me

Let me first disclaim that my 1-star negative review is not directed towards the Ryzen 3900x CPU, as I have not even got to the point of even trying out this CPU yet! My issues are directed towards Amazon and how they are handling their products.

I upgraded from an i5-4690k about a year ago to this absolute beast of a CPU and I could not be happier. Its unfortunate that since then, prices have skyrocketed on PC components, but for the ~400 I paid for this I will be happy for a long time. While benchmark sites like to focus on single-threaded performance, where comparably aged Intel units will get a slight edge, in real world use the 12 cores on offer here are a huge benefit. I simply havent been able to tax this CPU at all. Want to run a taxing game on one monitor, while streaming videos or keeping 12 tabs of Chrome open on the other? The 3900x doesnt even care. Go for it. Not even a droplet of sweat.
