Fast Gaming specific CPU

- Didn't lag on Fortnite

This thing hasn't even broken a sweat in the 3 games I've played so far using it. Great price at the time of purchase.

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.

Awesome performance.

I like that it is 20 cores and runs up to 5.6 Ghz while not going above 75 C. It only hits 70s under full load. Gaming 55 Celsius. Idles at 32 C using Corsair ICUE H150i RGB Elite on balanced setting.

this processor is awesome speedy also ai ready (npu build in)

(1) It works. (2) It is faster than my TR 1950X. (3) It is faster than my R9 7950X at multi-threaded tasks. (4) It can run WinUAE in real-time without the need for JIT.

- Can run decently well under the stock cooler - Good pair with 3060 or above with little to no bottleneck - Easy to install CPU and stock cooler on most motherboards

It's a budget performance champ

Good match for most midrange GPUs

-IT'S A REALLY GOOD CPU.

Runs surprisingly cool, a beast of a cpu weather you use it for gaming or work it doesnt disappoint.

Best gaming CPU in the world Priced fairly

Stays cool with 360mm aio Fast


great buget processor

My PC is actually much faster My GPU doesn't overheat anymore nor does it lag as much during renders


Super awesome communication and accurate description. Item came before expected. Arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. This chip now powers my AI/Racing Sim Box.. very happy customer!
