AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-core, 32-thread unlocked desktop processor

Works good as workstation+gaming at 3400-5000 with Ryzen balanced profile. TUFx570, AK620, Gloway 4x8GB were set by default at their 3200 (in comparing with 3900x), no crashes yet. Compilation in VS is very fast, also good for gaming. Power consumption max what I saw is 140w, max temperature while hard multiplayer gaming is 76 C (bottleneck is my Vega64, but still smooth 60-70fps at 2k).Coming fast, thank you!

AMD at it finest 16 cores and not to mention 32 threads. Omg this cpu rips through any project I throw at it. What a beast of a CPU. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT

Installed and completed and running normally at this time.

It's a bargain for this much power. A double tower air cooler will keep temps just fine. No need to go water cooling on it. Just have major air circulating with as much coming in as going out. With the Nvidia 5070 it was a big upgrade over the 5600x CPU I was using. I didn't think the 5600x was throttling it, but it was big time. Several cores on this boost to 5ghz and all hit 4.9ghz with air cooling keeping it 63-65c while gaming, and even under 85c in a stress test. The Thermalright Peerless 120 is all you need for this chip.For Virtual Machines, 7-Zip (which uses all the cores for compression) or Handbrake it's a significant time saver. For gaming it's so much smoother and consistent depending on the game. Some are more optimized for multiple cores/threads than others. Either way, your video card will never be held back on this chip. If you have an AM4 system, this will give you 7 more years at least out of it.

As advertised, great upgrade CPU. Should keep me on am4 till Ai bull trap passes

Really Great performance and has been a dream for productivity and gaming. The CPU runs surprisingly cool for how much power is delivered. Originally purchased the 5800x, but always wanted the 5950x. As soon as I could purchase I did and I have had no regrets since. Have the 5800x running in a small itx build and this 5950x running in my main desktop. Temp at idle is in the high 30s to low 40s with Temps under load in the 60s. Paired it with an nzxt kraken z73. Getting great scores in blender and cinebench R23. Really happy with this purchase and would recommend.

Até então funcionando perfeitamente.Ainda não foi possível explorar toda sua capacidade pelo fato de ainda faltar placa de vídeo dedicada.No mais, aprovado!

Am4 icin en iyi işlemcilerden biri. OC yaptim sivi soğutma ile deli bir şey oldu. Fiyat biraz tuzlu ama bence değer. Ayrica kargolama icin teşekkürler aynı gün ürün elime ulaştı.

Works and it is fast. The only time I saw the cpus maxed out was with shader cache buildup during game first startup and benchmarking. I haven't even fully used it because I'm using an old b450m motherboard bur so far it has been working very good. Posting after almost a year of purchase and use.

Best chip of the AM4 generation, not much else to say.

Multicore wonder. I had a 5700x3d before this and would gladly trade a few fps for this performance. PC is just more responsive and outside of games I never realized how much I was zipping/unzipping, moving files, uploading/downloading and had multiple applications open and this CPU handles it all. Impressive to use at stock, but dial in the PBO settings and you can easily hit 4.5-4.8ghz Multicore. The current price is great if you're still on AM4 so grab them while everyone fights over used 5700x3d & 5800x3d chips.

I had two reservations about buying this processor. First, I didn't think I would see much improvement over the Ryzen 7 3700X. I was wrong, I believe the performance has increased at least 50%. My average boot time is now about 18-20 seconds versus 35-40 seconds with the 3700X. I now run my Webroot program in four minutes 8 seconds max vs. 5-9 minutes. Still other programs have run in half the time of the 3700X. Second, I was worried that my Dark Rock Pro 4 air cooler couldn't handle this processor. I was wrong again. After removing the Dark Rock Pro 4 cooler and blowing out the dust and cat hair and installing Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Grease on the 5950X, it now runs cooler than the 3700X. With the ambient room temperature of 66 degrees, my idle temps are 23 Celsius (73 F) to 29 Celsius (84 F). When running software, I have not seen temps above 63 Celsius. I am sure temps will increase as summer is coming but I will be happy if I can keep it below 70 Celsius as Thermal Grizzly says the thermal grease is good to 80 Celsius. Don't believe all the reviews that say you have to have a liquid cooler. I have never been a fan of putting a liquid in my computer. I saw a video review of the 5950X processor with the Dark Rock Pro 4 air cooler installed and then I ordered my 5950X.Now for the bad news.If you have Windows 10 and are upgrading to this processor then it should be a walk in the park provided you have a bios version that supports 5000 series processors.If you have Windows 11 Pro like I have, you will have problems after the install. Windows 11 does not like hardware or bios changes. Their security feature checks everything on startup and when it finds changes it now makes you change your pin. If you don't have your password that you had when you installed Windows, you are dead in the water. Not only do you have to have your password, Windows 11 requires you to confirm a security key with a second email address requiring you to have another computer to get to that code. I hadn't used my computer I built in 2010 in over a year. Luckily it booted up and I was able to retrieve my second security code and now it let me change my pin. However, I still have a problem with one website after the new install. It takes me about 5 minutes to log on because my pin number has changed and doesn't want me to logon to that site.I wanted to get the Ryzen 9 5950X before they are gone. I believe the price will increase shortly due to tariff increases. Get one before it goes up. I missed last year's Black Friday sale price of $292.00 and I didn't want to miss this one.

While an older CPU, still a powerhouse in its own right! The core of my system, still able to run all the current software and games with no issues to date as of this review! It is quite stable and reliable even when pushed to its max levels.The heat is the ONLY issue as this is a chip that will run HOT! DO NOT! I will repeat this, DO NOT try to run this air cool. This is a CPU that you will want liquid cool only. I also found you will need at least a 360 cooler to keep this running cool properly. A 240 liquid cooler will do it but, it will be constantly running max to do it. If your case can support a larger than 360, I would even suggest that just for the head room. I have one of the better ones and it still will sometimes get a little warm for comfort (and no, I do not over clock... I run stock).That said, at the end of the day, this is a sold, stable choice that is compatible with anything you choose to do. It is especially great at gaming and streaming! (Or anything that deals with multi-tasking / multi-processing which is the center strength of the AMD CPU!) If you primarily work on only 1 thig or application... and have almost no other windows open... While this is more than capable of doing it, this CPU isn't the best geared one for such tasks, Intel is more geared towards single processing power housing!Yep, there you have it. Where the AMD is a Multiprocessing Powerhouse, the Intel is the Single Processing Powerhouse! Both CPU's have their strengths and weakness!
