  • Perfect home server CPU for AM4
A very powerful processor but with very little documentation. If you are on AM4 and want a server CPU, this will do just fine. For gaming, get an X3D as the split CCDs on this will make it equal to an 8-core system. Caveats: - Will never reach boost of 4.8 GHz even on single core - All core boost varies widely by load (SSE: 4.1 GHz, AVX: 3.6-4.0 GHz, AVX2: 3.3-3.6 GHz) - Power limited on A and B boards - Split CCD means full 16 core load performance will suffer but 2 8 Core loads will be perfect Perks: - High core count for transcoding, compression, encryption, etc. - Low power usage for given cores (130 Watts compared to 65 watt 8 core, linear scale) ... show more

  • Great Price to performance ratio
Runs cooler than the 5950X and only 100mhz slower single threaded. Pulls ahead in multi threaded apps as it doesn’t thermal throttle as quickly adding longevity to the old AM4 socket. Great for autocad and cpu intensive applications while gaming performance is still great but depending on the game disabling the second CCD might help with latency. With the current DDR5 pricing this processor while help keep your DDR4 system kicking for a few more years. ... show more

  • GREAT PURCHASE FOR THE PRICE !
This is an excellent product that matches the expectations I had for it. It's great for multitasking specifically and if you're going to be using OBS and playing video games at the same time, amongst other multi core processes.

  • Overall solid, get an AIO LC
Very good card if you pair it with a good GPU, definitely get a AIO Liquid cooler cuz this gets very hot, very much entry level hotty, I have not personally overlocked it but with the right cooling I’m sure it can get good numbers, boot times are good but depends on your bio settings, stable card, games that are cpu heavy are very much welcomed here. Overall a good investment for a relative cheap price if you get it around Black Friday. ... show more

  • Excellent, but hot..
Excellent. It does run hot though so you will need a 3fan water cooler. 1fan won’t work. I had a 1 fan water cooler on this and it was hitting red reaching temp over 90d.. and once you installed a 3fan cooler on this bad boy, you don’t have to do any performance management nor bios voltage edit.

  • VERY good for parallel work, especially for the price.
I bought my Desktop as a gaming desktop and cheaper out on the CPU in favor of GPU and RAM. I got a Ryzen 3 3100 originally. I upgraded to this when the price dropped to around ~250 (from over 1000 when I first bought my desktop if I remember correctly) when I started getting into computational modeling. The gaming impact is only somewhat notable because GPU handles most of that fine on its own, but the modeling stuff I have been doing has taken a quantum leap in completion time. It’s both faster per worker and I can parallelize tasks across more cores. My only complaint is that it generates a lot of heat and I had to underclock it slightly to compensate, but I also have limited cooling capability given the size of my case. A dual tower fan or liquid cooling should handle it well. ... show more

  • This is a wolf in sheeps clothing!
If you are a fan of the AM4 socket and you love power and performance at a killer price, then this is your chip. So many people complain about the heat, but it's very manageable. If you are a content creator, then this is your reliable workhorse.

  • Older, but Still Powerful
I have started playing with some machine learning tasks and locally hosted AI. My "main" computer had a Ryzen 5 5600x (6 cores, 12 threads). In today's environment, building a whole new machine with DDR5 RAM is pretty expensive, so I decided to do what I could with my existing AM4/DDR4 system. My MSI motherboard showed compatibility with the Ryzen 9 5900XT, so I updated to the latest BIOS and gave it a try. I was really looking for a 5900 or 5900x, but I didn't find either for a reasonable price. Since the 5900XT is a 105 Watt processor, rather than 65 Watts, I also got a bigger cooler. The upgrade went without a hitch. The new processor was immediately recognized and booted the first time. The big cooler makes getting to 2 of my RAM slots a little tight, but manageable. I ran a transcoding test on some 1080P video. It was much faster than my previous 5600x, but still didn't compare to using the Nvidia 2070 super video card. Still, if you don't mind the time and want a higher quality transcode, every bit of CPU power helps. Right now, I am doing my first scan of my Photo library on my NAS with Immich running on the NAS. I have a second instance of Immich running on the PC for just the Machine Learning component. So far everything is running very smoothly and I'm not noticing any slow down to other activities (like writing this review). ... show more
