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

Ive just received a supposed delivery of a 3900x today from Amazon (not a third party seller). The box was in perfect condition and the seal was intact. Upon opening though the CPU itself was missing and the box only contained the heatsink. When looking at the seal its just a regular sticker that would take no effort to remove and replace. Be careful and make sure you can see the CPU through the plastic window on the top of the box (I was in such a hurry that I didnt check).

Might run a bit hotter than Ryzen 7 I had in old computer, but much better. On monitor programs and BIOS temp is fine with just the wraith prism stock cooler. I think it probably helps I bought a mid-tower Fractal Design Meshify S2 case (roomy), but I cant find a problem yet. With that case and 2 extra Fractal 140mm fans (1 on top and 1 in front for total of 3 in front) case and CPU cooler with EVGA 2080 Super graphics card than my home office that has a Ryzen 7 chip, 3 fans, and lower end graphics card.

Fantastic CPU, cant recommend it enough

Easily 30% increase in single core speed, and more than double in multi thread. Yes, a 24 threaded CPU is 2X a 16 thread CPU. In games that favored Intel that I played, Killing floor 2 and Insurgency saw a massive uplift. I no longer get dips below 100fps I used to get with Zen 1. I can finally stream with SLOW preset and get 0% FPS drop. I can only do FAST on the 1700.

I was very nervous ordering this because just over half the reviews in the last month were complaints about the cooler being missing and the CPU being shipped naked in an envelope.

Excellent processor!!! DIY build for Gaming and music production. This processor is handling everything with ease...

With 24 threads, I can get through my morning emails in record time. But seriously, it is good for the multithreaded app development I do and the server debug work my wife does.

I like this processor very much. Its powerful and cheap. What I love most about this processor is the noise level. When not gaming, the fan on the processor is quite. When gaming, its a bit loud, but its perfectly within an acceptable range. The heating is the same as the fan. Its around 40 when, not gaming, but it gets up to 85 when gaming. I would repurchase this without second thoughts.

great cpu allot of bang for the buck

Game,stream, do it all without having to worry about processing power. A true beast indeed.
