High frames and easily cooled
Single and multi cores work as described. Runs cool. Idles around 32C and maxed out at 76C. (I have peerless assassin 120 se, not sure if this is a pro for the cooler or cpu. but stress tested this cpu 2x times for 30 minutes at 100% and cpu never went over 76C) No instability while gaming and requiring it to boost to or over 5ghz. No issues with running my ram at 6k mhz Can run games just fine. I edit videos and is super fast when rendering. I have recorded videos while gaming and obs never went over 6% cpu utilization while recording 60fps 1080p.
IN COMPARING THE INTEL I CORE 5 14600K WITH AMD'S COMPARABLE VALUED CPU, INTEL BLOWS THEM AWAY. NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE BETTER BUT THE PERFORMANCE IS WAY BETTER. 189 DOLLARS YOU CANT GO WRONG WITH THIS. I'VE PURCHASED A FEW OF THESE FOR MY NUMEROUS BUILDS OVER THE COURSE OF A FEW MONTHS FOR GAMING. I KNOW THAT THE AM5 ........X3D PROCESSORS HAVE THAT L2 CACHE BUT FOR THE PRICE IM PAYING FOR THE INTEL PROCESSOR IM VERY HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS
Due to changes in the internal structure, the clock speed has increased because it can be cooled more than the 7950X3D, and the X3D has been installed while maintaining the same performance as the 9950X. It is the strongest CPU.
-Same install as a normal AM4 pocessor -No Weird OS CPU scheduler -Can use Windows High performance mode unlike 7950X3d (prevent it's cores from parking) -Better TimeSpy Scores out of my 4090 with this compared to my previous 7950x3d -Very low heat... I used a Noctua D15 and it never goes above 79-80C under extreme load, 65C while gaming AAA
- Paired with an RX 6600 I got for $220 and a $30 cooler this thing can handle Cyberpunk on High settings, at 70-80% usage, between 4.1- 4.2GHz, barely using over 30W and temps staying around 60 degrees.
yes I like it.
Great for 4K gaming. Don't need anything more for 4K gaming. Can't wait to see this paired with a 7900XT. Bought this day one along with the X670E Steel Legend.
There have already been several BIOS updates released to correct the performance issue and the processor runs super well.
Everything. Just WOW!
- Boosts to 5.55ghz (150mhz above the 5.4ghz advertised) - No pins on CPU. Easy to install. - Installed, booted. No problems.

Dynamic switch 5.8 GHZ and 5.450 GHZ oc very good processor and very underestimated by the media I tested against my 7800x3d and its games for not much both were optimized 7800x3d oc ebclk and negative pbo curve with both of the ram 2x24GB trident z gskill oc 6200 MHZ cl28-38-38-38 on aida the 9700x job maintains a latency of 56.8ns against the 7800x3d 57.6ns
This CPU performs great, I'm breezing through my editing workloads in DaVinci, After Effects among others, gaming is definitely a delightful experience, though I bought this as a work horse first.
- Fast - Not too hot when gaming - FAAAST
It seems fantastic runs like a jet
Easy install, great performance.
Excellent performance. You definitely need a good cooler. I'm using a 420mm from corsair push/pull to keep this baby cool. It's keeping it at 77c underload
Pop the CPU in and up and running no problems at all.

Great performance, decent thermals I haven't had it configured long but in geek bench (not perfect I know) I got 1915 ST/14043 MT with stock settings and air cooling (Noctua NH-D15). I got these scores with DDR4, so the speed is great even without DDR5 which was a lot cheaper since I could use my existing RAM. I ran a CPU stress test for a while and it maxed out at around 67-68 degrees Celsius.
For gamming more than 6 cores isnt really used, unless you play Cities: Skylines 2. More likely youll need better GPU so got this and no issues.
