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

Product itself is great, but coming from Intel it runs hotter. My 3770k idled around 30c, and this idles around 48c.

Upgraded from a 3700x, Im seeing 20 - 50 FPS higher performance in most DX11 / DX12 games @ 1440p Ultra Settings... Paired with a Asus Tuf x570 Plus Wifi, a MSI 6800xt GPU, 64GB DDR4 @ 3600MT/s, And All NVMe Storage. PBO Pushed it to 4.9ghz stable @ 1.3V, max temps at 74⁰C on a 280mm AIO, idle temps at 32⁰C. Also overclocked it to 5.1ghz at 1.32Volts, stable 79⁰c max temp OCd. MAKE SURE you install the proper Chipset driver directly from AMD and disable Windows Driver Updates !!!

First I will start with the (very) minor con, its warm. Like really warm. I went from a Ryzen 7 1700 on a high end air cooler that barely went to 70 degrees C.

Installing is as simple as slotting the pins into the slots, and pulling the locking lever up then down again. You need a 3rd party cooler device as the processor comes in an otherwise empty box. Im sure it says that somewhere or is just a known standard with AMD, but I wasnt expecting it.

Very good chip.

Geiler CPU, es läuft so flüssig und glatt, nichts bringt ihn aus der Ruhe

固定クロックかな〜と思っていたが、自動で上下してくれるのでストレスなく動いてくれるしレスポンスも良いので問題なし

Nice CPU but it will run warm. Make sure you have good cooling!!!

It works absolutely amazing combined with Asus Strix Dark Hero VIII.

I hope the chip is alright since it has been poorly packaged. Praying and hoping that its not faulty.
