    • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

      Worth price in more use cases than reviewers admit

      The down and dirty is that if your build is 100% for gaming, buying this CPU is merely a flex. However, the more heavily your workload includes productivity, the more this CPU makes sense and is worth every penny. In other words, if you use your machine for earning income, it's a no-brainer. I actually started my July 2025 build with the 9950X3D and upgraded to this on launch. There is a noticeable improvement when running multiple platforms simultaneously, as it eliminates all the Windows scheduling issues. If your decision rests solely on the benchmarking "numbers" reported by various content creators who are advising against this CPU for "value" reasons, you might miss out on an opportunity to get through heavy workloads faster. The people who need this CPU will make up the price difference very quickly through increased efficiency.

      Good but pricey

      It’s a fast cpu, but is most likely not worth the steep price.
