BEST SELLERS

In Desktop CPU Processor

- Voodoo, black magic, sorcery level performance compared to energy used. This thing destroys while pulling just 65 Watts. Unreal performance per watt.

This CPU more than doubled my FPS compared to a 3900x in CP2077, both using a 3080, it feels much smoother as well, with no noticeable stutters. This CPU is a serious beast, and if my GPU ever gives out I have an integrated GPU as well so i can still use my PC whilst waiting for a replacement.

Excellent performance. I have had zero issues. It has lots of single and multi-core power and it will likely chew up and spit out anything you throw at it. I upgraded from the first gen 16 core threadripper that was struggling under DX12 ray tracing, and it was a huge upgrade for me.

I had an old banged up mid tower case. I had an old 400 watt PS. I had an RTX 3050 6GB sitting around. I had an old 2TB HD. For about $172 delivered I have a viable Ryzen 5 5500 system with 32 GB DDR4 memory and an off brand dirt cheap HUANANZHI A520M motherboard. It works fine, runs very cool with the provided stock cooler and a few of those little copper stick on heat sinks I had lying around I stuck on the components surrounding the cpu, it replaces an ancient FX-8350 and it benchmarks twice as fast! So far running tests all night with zero problems.

my in-game framerate doubled! even with a better monitor from 1080p to 1440p. I upgraded motherboard from b450 to b550, vnme 1/2 TB to 1 TB, ram from 2800 to 3333 MHz, and of course the CPU from 3200g to 5800xt. Paired with a 4060 GPU

Fast gaming performance. I paired with G-SKill Trident DDR5-6400 CL32. There's a noticeable response performance in the operating system when launching browser, folders and apps on the AM5 platform coming from AM4 Zen3. Getting 250-350 FPS in Fortnite and 150+ in COD WZ with RTX-4070Ti.

More efficient than 14th gen for sure, you can cool it with dual tower air cooler, when doing cinebench multicore test didn't get past 80c degree /without OC/

Great performance for demanding rigs and paired with a AMD GPU it is an exquisite experience.

I am coming from a 14 year old system which had dual 12 core Xeon's, but they were old. This CPU is light years faster than my old rig for gaming and applications, and when paired with a PCIE with NVMe SSD and a Radeon 7600 XT, it maxes out brand new games without any stutter. I love the new AMD architecture with boost, and that it is energy efficient. With a dual radiator air cooler on stock settings it gets 4.5ghz boost speed, which is 200 mhz faster than reference. I don't feel the need to overclock it because it is already so much faster than what I am used to and I don't want to affect system stability. I paired it with EXPO memory and I got DDR 5 6000 speed at the push of a button and my system screams.

fast processor, nice for gaming

The 7600x has a very nice boost up to 5.5g. I use a 240 mm liquid cooler and temps stay below 90c even at stress testing. This was a massive upgrade from my old I7 7700k. Did not expect such performance from just a Ryzen 5.

5.3ghz and 32 threads. Works great and once in the replacement board i can really test it speed andcpower.

FAST, and just as high performing as AMD at 4k/Ultra which is why you would buy this CPU, that and productivity apps. A little more cost effective than AMD equivalents. SLEEPER PERFORMER: influencers and enthusiasts have claimed bad performance, but it's not true when properly tuned. RAM of 8800+ MT's speeds are easily achievable/stable.

Luckily I like spending time tweaking my CPU. My benchmark scores and framerates really did not go up until I dialed in a good Core Offset, tuned the memory beyond EXPO's auto settings, turned off Core Isolation in Windows, downloaded Win 11 update KB5041587. I have not tried Win11 24H2 yet, and I am not running this with any version of Linux. Compared to my 7950x, I have way more throw with the Core offset. I can dial in a Core Offset beyond -25 with the 9950x, whereas my 7950x gets fussy when I try a CO beyond -5. The 9950x also doesn't run as hot.

was using 12400f this runs allmost as fast as my 13700k very happy

- Didn't lag on Fortnite

Only 65W and uses it well. Zippy performance at less heat! Typically running in the middle 40's C for me.

Good Bang for your Buck. Runs Cool under my workload.
