I bought this to test to see if I had a bad motherboard or a bad CPU. It ended up being a bad motherboard. I decided to keep this CPU for a 2nd backup system in case my main system goes down again. Once I get the replacement motherboard since my motherboard was under warranty I'm going to be using this in my new system. I tested it with a RX 9070XT and a RTX 5070TI. For 1440p to 4k gaming this CPU handles most new AAA games with no issues. IMO I don't believe the average person buys a RX 9070XT or a RTX 5070TI to play games at 1080p unless they're extremely competitive ESports gamers or play competitive 1st person shooters. This CPU is very power efficient, does decent for the average PC user looking to web browse, do basic tasks, watch movies, light office tasks, listen to music and use mid range GPUs like the RX 9070XT or the RTX 5070TI to play games at 1440p or higher and it also pushes them well enough for video rendering applications. If you're looking for a CPU for competitive gaming I'd recommend at least the 7800X3D or 9800X3D and for professional use at least a 12c/24t or greater CPU like the 7900, 7950XT, 9900XT or the 9950XT. I could recommend Intel for professional use, but considering their price compared to the competing AMD products and worse power efficiency I wouldn't ATM. JMO, feel free to disagree.

I paired this processor with a new MSI X870-P motherboard and 32GB Corsair DDR5 RAM to help futureproof my 5 year old set up for another few years. I was running an Intel 10400F and 24GB DDR 4 RAM. This new set up, paired with my RTX 3070, has made a world of difference. Games that were running 40-45 fps are now pushing 80-85 constant with no problem. Some, like Deep Rock Galactic, are a constant 110+ fps. I only have a 1080p monitor so this works great for the gaming I use it for. After installing an additional exhaust fan, the temps seemed to drop to the mid-70C range under load. I can't speak to a high dollar 4K set up on ultra settings, but it works great for mid-tier gaming. Of course it drops to $180 after I paid $220 for it in February...still worth it.

This is an amazing little CPU. Plays everything max settings at 1440p when paired with a rx7900gre. I was able to overclock it to 5.65ghz with a -55 core voltage curve undervolt, and the infinity clock set to 2100mhz. I was originally only going to use this as a stepping stone to get into the am5 platform, but now I think I'm going to use this CPU for years to come. I got this on sale from Amazon at $180, and for that price it has amazing value! It does get fairly warm, especially doing benchmarks and stress tests. I paired it with a thermalright phantom spirit 120 Evo. I limited the TJ Max temp to 83⁰c, stock it's at 95⁰c. But during gaming it never goes above 70⁰c. To be honest, I think this Ryzen 5 is what most people need for 1440p gaming. Don't waste your money buying the more expensive chips, if you're only going to use it for gaming.

Great CPU! I see alot of hate on it on the internet but honestly its great! Perfect for a midrange Gaming PC. Plays anything you need, Havent had any issues! Very easy too cool aswell. a $35 water cooler has kept it below 50c steadily no matter the load. Very low power consumption Im assuming. Runs great! Much better option price wise than every other new or used AMD or Intel CPU!

Really a performance leap, recommended for upgrades and power consumption is nothing to the performance it gives, if you learn to undervolt it, it will surprise you how cool it runs with higher performance.

I've been a loyal user of AMD processors for many years now, and for good reason – I consistently find them to be excellent. This Ryzen 5 9600X is no exception; it delivers great performance and lives up to the high standards I've come to expect from AMD. I purchased this CPU to pair with a Gigabyte B650 motherboard, and they work together flawlessly. The compatibility has been perfect, and I'm really happy with the overall performance of this setup. If you're considering an AMD build, I highly recommend checking out their latest Ryzen processors!

Excelente procesador incluso con sus gráficos integrados y haciendo pruebas de rendimiento pude disfrutar de warzone a 1080 a unos 45 FPS eso habla bien de su rendimiento

Built a new PC and went with this processor — couldn’t be happier! Super fast, smooth performance, and it handles everything I’ve thrown at it so far without breaking a sweat. Great for gaming, streaming, and everyday tasks. Install was easy and it paired perfectly with my setup. Definitely recommend this one for anyone doing a new build!
