  • Worth it for my workflow.
It was time to build a new PC. Until I saw the prices of DDR5 (and DDR4) RAM. And what the hell is the deal with storage prices too? Oof! Instead of a new computer, I decided to just upgrade my AM4 motherboard with this beast! But then ended up just building it out from all new parts. I know it's end of life technically, but with this, I feel good about at least another 3-5 years... Hopefully RAMaggeden will have ended with the bursting of the AI bubble by then. In my retirement, I process raw drone photos and videos, raw astronomy and astrophotography data, 3d modeling and printing, and of course, I do gaming too, including PC VR games. These hobbies can be hard on the wallet, but also very taxing on CPU's and GPU's. This CPU is seriously up to the task but only with a motherboard that is compatible with the high power needs of the CPU (125 watts). Both plugs on the top left of the board should be plugged in. IYKYK, if you don't know what I mean, please look it up before you buy this. Its 16 cores and 32 threads rip though everything I throw at. Overclocking was easy enough, and done very carefully of course. It's great for photo and video processing and 3d rendering, but in reality it's probably about twice what anyone would need for gaming. I really wish I had bought this, or something similar, way earlier in the AM4 lifecycle. I didn't realize what I was missing out on. At the time I bought this it was cheaper than an AM5 "equivalent", so double check and compare first. For me, in Jan and Feb of 2026, this was the better cost to performance ratio for the work I do with it. For those that are curious, my build is this Ryzen 9 5900XT CPU overclocked up to 5.25MHz (figure your own math), under volted which helps with overclocking and cooling. I worked slowly and carefully to make mine very stable but fast. Remember, this is all at your own risk, and it actually really did run great at stock settings. Because I knew hear can be an issue with big processors like this, I got a 360mm, 3 fan and radiator water-cooled system, and with a total of 13 fans in the case (including the 2 fans over my RAM sticks), this machine has never exceeded 65-68°C on any benchmark tests I've run. Matching 16Gb x 4 sticks (64Gb total) 3200MHz DDR4 RAM, XFX Swift OC 9060XT 16Gb VRAM GPU, Asus ROG Strix B550 motherboard, with a Rosewill 850 Watt+80 Gold PSU (power supply unit) with the higher quality Japanese internals. 1-1Tb m.2 NVME, 1-4Tb m.2 NVME and 1 old school 4Tb SATA HDD for stable cold storage of processed data, photos and videos and lesser used or older games. The sum of all the parts let's me render 3d in minutes, process nebulae and galaxies and drone images flawlessly and quickly. I also have the benefit of gaming most triple a titles and e-sports at 1440p well over 75 fps (lowest) on ultra and high settings, Ray tracing, FSR, all on (no path tracing though, I never like that setting). Cyberpunk, COD, Fortnite, Black Myth, Skyrim, Requiem, Ready or Not, flat and VR versions, etc. I've even dabbled a little in 4K's lower settings. I love this CPU! (Yes, I know, the GPU too.) If this fits your needs, and the price is right, it just might be what you need to extend your computers' usefulness another 3-5 years. ... show more

  • Benchmarks and Price confirm 5900xt greater than 5700x3d and 5800x3d... The ads lie...
Why did you pick this product vs others?: User benchmarks confirm the 5900xt is the best bang for your buck... On paper, the 5900xt outperforms in gaming and is cheaper than the 5700x3d. On a side note the 5800x3d outperforms the 5900xt in gaming but only by 4% on paper... The 5800x3d also ranges in price from $500 to $1000... These benchmarks are points not measurable by the naked eye, literally require benchmark software to see the difference. Ensuring you are pairing the right hardware and using the right settings will make all the difference... If all you are doing is mixing up hardware without a clue to what works best with what, your experience will be terrible, no matter how much money you throw at your CPU... Temperature: The temps are as expected for the power draw. Idles as low as 40c with highs peaking at 80c on a 360 aio with stock fans. Functionality: Ideal for a workstation and can handle AAA game titles with ease, especially since current games don't require anything close to a processor like this and likely won't for a while... Power: Does consume a fair bit of power... But I'd be more concerned with your GPU if you are power conscious... ... show more

  • I made the right choice for me....
My motherboard for my older 8 core AMD Ryzen died after five years. I had 64gb of ddr4 ram and the insane prices of ddr5 ram made me want to maximize use of what I had. I bought this processor, a GIGABYTE B550 AORUS Elite AX V2 AMD AM4 ATX Motherboard, and a Crucial 2TB M2 drive (my old M2 was an early generation 1TB drive). I am amazed at how much faster this setup is compared to my previous one. I am not a gamer, but I had a 5070 card from the old system that I reused along with my 64GB of DDR4 ram. Why did I have 64GB of DDR4 ram? Because when I purchased the two 32GB chips six years ago I got them both on sale for a total of $350. Everything installed beautifully and I love the new/old generation motherboard and processor. ... show more

  • Upgrade that AM4 motherboard now.
Great upgrade without breaking the bank. With the prices for DDR5 now, I can rock this chip, and keep using my AM4 Asus Tuf 570 Motherboard with 32GB of ram in it. With the new Full speed Gen4 M.2 SSD it was a noticeable upgrade for sure.

  • Solid CPU
I’ve been an AMD CPU user for nearly 8 years now and I can’t recommend them enough. Solid performance, and easy to install. Well worth.

  • Monster 16 core CPU!
Monster CPU and 2nd fastest for the AM4 socket. Riding out this socket in style! Great gaming with this and a AMD RT 9060 XT 16GB. A++++

  • 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
