BEST SELLERS

In Desktop CPU Processor

Not a huge power hog Doesn't cook itself alive Running games like a dream

Great price for am4 best cpu

Runs efficiently and without struggle under a heavy load.

-Easy install as any CPU -Integrated graphics

-Low power vs the previous generations -Both great gaming and multicore performance -Plenty of IO -Doesn't kill itself like raptor lake -Very tame voltages -Super responsive even vs raptor lake which on paper these should be about the same. -iGPU have av1 encoding so frees my actual gpu for other stuff -Stable and no strange bugs or issues

I paired this CPU with a RTX 3080 10GB on a 1080p and I'm getting +165 FPS in arc riders epic settings.

-simple upgrade from a 3000 series, and way faster for the same chipset (to include the cost!)

This is my first AMD CPU since the days of the Athlon 64 X 2. I had really liked the AMD chips (I still have a working K6-III 450 that OCs to 600MHz on an old Compaq Presario), and my first builds in the early 2000s were all AMD. But I shifted to Intel with the introduction of the Core2Duo line of CPUs which were amazingly cool-running and OCable and never went back to AMD until now. My last Intel build which I still use was an i5-13600k build from 2023, a great cpu. But Intel seems kind of stalled right now, so I opted for AMD Ryzen. I have never spent such a large sum on a cpu (and adjusting for inflation), but I'm old and decided to go for it. Using this cpu has been a learning curve to say the least, with CCDs, 3d cache, core parking, and other features of these chips with which I was unfamiliar. But wow, this 9950X3D is jaw-dropping. Currently, I am not OCing but I am undervolting. And at stock, some of the CCD1 cores run at 5750+ stable, and all the CCD0 at 5500+. None of my temps (package, CCD or individual cores) exceed mid-70s (peak bursts) and average in the mid-60s under gaming (FS 2024, Cyberpunk 2077) or benchmark (OCCT, Cinebench) demands. And this is using only a 240mm AIO. The AMD chipset drivers work great, and when paired with Win 11 Game Bar and a Win 11 Balanced power option, the non-3D cached cores idle at 4.3GHz when gaming just as they are supposed to do. This is all new to me, but I've learned, and it's just magic. I'm using a 5070 Ti and 64G of Corsair Vengeance (I bought in early 2025 when it was cheap). My gaming is smooth, apps the same (it blows through Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop), and everything snaps. Hats off to AMD.

Works great, awe-some graphic. I should of opted for the Ryzen 7 , next one be.

Excellent CPU....easy to install for certain as compared to the CPU's with very fine pins. Worked first time and no problems...including the new Motherboard.

I've been an AMD fan since 2000. This 12 core 7000 series X3D is a great workstation machine. Somewhere I read in the mainboard literature to use the first premade algorithm in the BIOS if you just wanted a really fast workstation.

Had been on 8-core CPU's for the longest time, but I found that I was multi-tasking more and more. This CPU fit the bill and it was a noticeable speed bump over my old 5800X. It was a nice middle ground as the next level up, 9950X, was beyond my budget. Plenty good enough for gaming also. Power efficiency is still good enough to stick to air cooling.

Powerful, and not too much slower than 13900k, but much less expensive. Four extra e-cores compared to 13700k. Huge upgrade from my 3770k which I've been using since 2012.

One of the best processors you can get if you're on the AM4 platform.

This is a super good cpu all around. I was able to overclock it to 4.5 ghz easily and probably could have gone even farther. (with an aio cooler, I didn't use the included one) From a 2016 macbook pro, this makes a huge difference. Ryzen master software is intuitive and really easy to use.

High productivity with good power consumption. Plenty of cores/threads for gaming and productivity.

Going from "cutting edge" 10 yr old technology to this was a nice upgrade!

-Fast and furious -Gaming beast

I am upgrading from a 5800X3D and should have got in last winter before the RAMpacalypse got this bad but alas I did not and now pay the price of FOMO. This CPU is a placeholder for the future Ryzen 7 11800X3D.
