Fast CPU, great value, easy to install. overclock ready

I had a 3700x processor and I was having all sorts of problems (could not shut off computer, would not go into sleep mode. I bought this 5800x processor and I no longer have any problems. It runs quickly, boots a little faster, sleep mode works and I can now turn off my computer at night without having to restore Windows 11.

Its a great cpu for work or gaming it has bice overclock capabilities

Great cpu, got the ryzen 7 on sale! Which really saved me money and ready to game!

Very fast and affordable. Easy to install as well.

Runs great on Asus ROG X570. Just did a simple BIOS update with flashback, and it booted perfectly on the first try. Zero issues for the past few months, even with 3600MHz RAM (on the QVL). Very fast. No heat issues using a noctua air cooler / heat sink. If you're only gaming, a 5600x is cheaper and basically just as fast for that use case, so the bang/buck is better there.

Moving from the i9 to Ryzen 7 was the best gaming move ever. I have not seen any dips in performance since I've installed this cpu. I am running a RTX 2060 Super still and running like a king. If your on a budget and want excellent performance, like the Mandalorian, "This is the way."

Pretty nice cpu for the price. Works fast and runs great. No issues installing nor with overclocking.

Excellent preformance for the price. This cpu is clocked high straight out of the box and has great preformance. I upgraded from a ryzen 7 1700 to this cpu and i noticed it a lot more than i thought i would. Just be sure to get a stronger cooler than a stock amd one because it wont be enough to cool this.

I moved up from an Intel i7-6700K 4C 8T and this thing absolutely demolishes it. If you can get your hands on one. I have it paired with my 3080 FE and it's a monster.

It's really fast. Idk what else to say, it's probably more CPU than you need. I only picked this up because the 5600x was outta stock... there's more impressive ways to flex that you've got wallet; if anything this'll get people to sneer "Huh, not a 5950x? Holding back I see" and that leaves you kicking rocks while you walk home to play Genshin Impact on your woefully overstatted rig. Come on now. You can do better!

I purchased this mainly for gaming and while it is a very powerful processor, I only saw minimal gains compared to my current cpu and ended up returning it. However, if your workload can make use of the additional cores, then this cpu will treat you well. Just know that this cpu generates a lot of heat so make sure you have adequate cooling. May try this cpu again when the price drops hit.

Bought this CPU to compliment my 7800XT. I have no issues with this CPU. Make sure to buy a AIO or beefed up heatsink. I haven't overclocked it, and I think I won't have to because it is doing it's job. Recommend for higher end desktop computers.

Great CPU, As many people have stated it can run hot, I got a decent one and it runs pretty good. I got mine to run 4.7 ghz all core at 1.3v. 80C max temp which isn't bad. It gets nowhere near that during gaming so yeah. Great chip, I'd personally take a look at and consider the 5900x, if you got the extra $100 and or need for an extra 4 cores 8 threads it's definitely worth it.

This processor runs great. The only issue with it is that it runs hotter than an average AMD processor. This is due to the chip placement. If you purchase it and are worried about the temps, I recommend undervolting it. How to do that will depend on your motherboard’s manufacturer and bios. Google and Youtube will be your friend to find out how. I run a Corsair Nautilus liquid cooler with mine & I have undervolted it. My idle temps hover around 31c in windows and 35-36c while in the bios.

This CPU is definitely one of the best in the game. It will run almost anything you throw at it and worked well with my RTX computer build. Looking forward to having this powerful CPU in my PC for years to come!!

Really wasn't sure if I should go with Intel or Ryzen, but couldn't be happier with this 5800x. Other than having to flash the BIOS on my x570 prior to use, it has been easy as can be for my first build in a decade. I am only using this for gaming, but so far there isn't anything this processor cannot do! Runs every single new game with ease, and stays decently cool with my AIO. If you can get your hands on one, I highly recommend!

The new CPU from AMD is very fast and an excellent value.

Couldn't beat the price drop that had occurred on this processor. Stuck it in my Asus TuF x570 Plus Wifi mainboard with 48gb of ram and a couple 1tb SSDs running Windows 11Pro. Very pleased with the performance matched with a Radeon GPU. Waiting for the 9 to drop so I can get that for my RoG Strix mainboard.

I upgraded my PC from a 2600X (which was a bit of a side-grade from my old i7-3930k. If you have 1st or 2nd gen Ryzen or are looking for a good upgrade from a Pre-2017 intel processor (provided you get a compatible motherboard) this is a good pick. It is, quite frankly outdone in value by the 5600X and 5900X. However, the latter of those is still hard to find at MSRP or lower at the time of writing this review.
