Fastest in the world

Fast processor, easy on power and runs cool, keeps up extremely well with our other computer's Ryzen 7 7700x, especially considering it's only a Ryzen 5.

-IT'S A REALLY GOOD CPU.

- Huge upgrade over my 2700X and great final upgrade for my AM4 motherboard - included Wraith Prism cooler is the variation with copper - Precision Boost Over drive enabled, never goes over 65 Celsius at normal room temperature during max-load Cinebench test. - budget friendly under 200 dollars and stupid good cost to performance

Maintains a reliable lower temperature than its competition in i9 14900k series from Intel. Most of the benchmarks outperform the i9 14900k but some do not. For the most part I really enjoy having the AMD Ryzen 9 flagship CPU in my system. The memory bandwidth is nearly double that of the i9 14900 with 6000MHz memory versus the Intel CPU running 7200MHz memory.

Solid performance

Low Power consumption Awesome Temps Great IMC Powerful E Cores

It has functioned flawlessly on a MSI Tomahawk MB with DDR 6000 CL 30 memory. Upgrade options down the road... Gaming performance has been a significant improvement over my previous 5600x.

I know there have been some recent issues with the voltage on the i7 and i9 14th gen CPUs but I haven't had an issue yet (knock on wood). I am also not overclocking it and updated the BIOS as soon as the update was available. Gaming is secondary to work for my teaching computer science.

Great processor and is lightning fast. The install was as easy as ever and there were no problems.

Fast, Easy Install

very fast and great overall performance! I can defiantly tell the differences when running games and multi tasking for work.

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.

Installed in a Gigabyte B550 Aorus pro. BIOS update not needed. Bought the Wraith CPU cooler also. Like that it is just 65 watts. Needed a low temp CPU for a tight build.

I am cooling it with Be Quite! Dark Rock Pro 4

fast and efficient i am playing all my games on ultra again, paired with a 7900 gre on a z790 chipset along with g.skill ddr5 at 5600

I had a 5900x and got it on a sale but always wanted the 16/32 core 5950x since it was the best CPU AMD released for AM4. But it was always priced with too much inflated pricing. I got this 5900XT Jan 2026, 16/32, core CPU because it was priced right and had the full 16 cores I wanted. I got it because I decided to not buy into AM5 at the moment because of DDR5 pricing is so high, but I wanted some sort of an upgrade right now and I already have 64GB ram and a 7900XTX card. I am glad I bought it because I am pretty sure I got a cherry of a CPU. I used Ryzen master to do the curve optimizer testing and after 2 hours of it running it set all cores to -30 negative. I was a bit skeptical of this choice but ran with it and it has been 100% solid and stable and boost to 4975-5000Mhz. I left every setting alone in the bios and the AMD software set the bios up according to the tests it did when I ran the software. The only thing I setup myself was the DDR4 which is set to 3733Mhz with decent timings not the best but pretty decent. In Aida64 my latency when tested is about 57-59ns which is pretty good I think for a dual CCD CPU. I am happy with my choice so far. It does seem to be faster than my older 5900x 12/24 CPU in games mainly because it seems to hold the core clocks a lot longer and temps do not seem to affect it as much as on the older 5900x did.

- It's a new AMD cpu. With this being said, I do 100% agree that for similar price, you should go with 7800X3D if you're heavy into gaming. - Undervolted to -15mV, and currently running stable (bought it at release).

Not much to say about this great CPU. It's unlocked and has many cores, performs well and can be overclocked. I just needed a beefier CPU cooler then what I purchased with this CPU. Get a cooler that is at least 150W TDP to run it with reasonably low temps. If you overclock, a cooler with higher Watts (200-300W) rating is a must.
