- Runs coooooool - Out performs my 13900K (30C° cooler while doing it) - Can run fans at lower speeds for less noise now. - Did I mention it runs cool? - Have had 0 issues so far. I think Im in love.

6 physical cores, 12 threads, almost 40 mb of total cache, can boost to high speeds, 65 tiny watts, stays cool, installation easy, runs any game i throw at it beutifully, handles my workload better than the i7 I was running at a much lower cost, love the utilities and tools specifically for ryzen cpus in general and their ease of use, Value is unmatched there is no intel cpu with the same or nearly the same features and price point, shamelessly gonna yet again bring up the price to performance because its honestly mindblowing

Works great for my photo editing.

-Shreds any and all workloads -runs cooler than my old 5800x3D -boosts to 5.7GHz on all cores under heavy workloads

- 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

Fast. Stable. Decent temps

Keeps real cool with a 360mm water cooler

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

Dude. Just read the specs, theyre crazy. Especially because I was able to buy it on sale.

Phenomenal performance, scores great on Cinebench and Windows feels extremely snappy.

This sucker is powerful - probably more than I really need - but it went on sale when I was purchasing the 7900x - so I splurged. I LOVE how this chip can be undervolted using Eco Mode - it lets you operate at much lower wattage (105W or 65W) - when compared to the chips 170 TDP. I've run the cpu in both 105 and 65 modes and haven't had any issues. Oddly enough, the 105 eco mode (on this chip) - gives me the best temperatures. Nice work AMD - Now I just need a GPU - lol

-blazing fast and overclocked out-of-box to 5.3ghz (for me) with current MoBo bios and drivers. -ECO mode at 65 average watts and much lower temps is giving me great 1440p, 144hz gaming on high/ultra WoW with max viewing distance. -integrated GPU is nice for new rig setup pending installation of graphics card.

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.

Another quality product from Intel. I've seen several UTUB videos on speed comparisons, etc. Most reviewers use Gaming metrics and I'm not a gamer. With Win10 not being supported after Oct 14th and my current system at almost 10 years old, I just needed a refresh into Win11. It is fine for what I'm going to use it for and WAY faster than my previous build.


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.

There is no other chip out at the time of writing that can handle the rtx 4090 the way this chip can. It handles the load perfectly with the right cooling. The better the cooling/ the faster the chip becomes. If you want the very best, this is the cpu your looking for.

- Runs very cool under load (62c in my system). - Excellent productivity performance. - Good gaming performance (Not x3d, but expected) - Smoother windows performance when compared to 5900x.

-I got what I ordered

Got when was $107.99 and got good silicon lottery. Can almost high max pbo boost with a PX4 cooler. Running 64gb of DDR4 3600 mhz 16-20-20-38 1.4V 500 tRFC.
