    A great CPU

    A great CPU. I'm coming from a 1700x, so this was definitely an improvement. I held off on the Ryzen 3000 CPUs, particularly the fantastic 3600x, and decided on this one vs the 5600x because it would just feel weird for me to upgrade to less cores even though I don't personally benefit from the increased core count.

    Was trying to wait for the 5900X but its been 4 months and nothing in stock. Decided to go with the 5800X, very fast and does everthing i need.

    What can I say? This processor is all most people would ever need. AMD installation is super easy. If you’re into over locking, this cpu is an easy overclock and it handles it well. I was going between the 5600 and the 5800 and landed on the 5800 because it has 2 extra cores - not that that’s entirely necessary at this point in time, but it is nice to have.

    Good product, if you use the pricematch.

    This device is nice, and with pricematch I got it at 329.99, really really good price. But, because of BestBuy's every man for himself policies if I want a 3060~3080ti to go with my nice brand new cpu I have to buy a 3rd party bot or have no life. 10\10 customer support and in-store service, 0\10 company design and customer care. Great product tho.

    I upgraded from a 5600x to this mostly for the gaming side of everything. I still do video editing now and then and still pretty solid. I'm glad I upgraded since this will last me for several years before a new system build.

    AMD's Latest & Greatest

    AMD provides another wonderful processor that provides one of the best quality to price ratios. If you are gonna spend $400-500 this is the best processor before it gets into the crazy expensive area. I wouldn't pay more than $500.

    I've upgraded RAM, GPU, PSU and even MOBO but this CPU is still hanging in there. I've got it paired with a XFX Merc310 Black RX 7900 XT. No bottle necking or trouble keeping up. 165hz 1440p monitor. At $250 this chip is a steal.

    This processor has been a good buy for me. It was on sale so I got a good deal on it, but even so it was a good deal for the full price. It is lightning quick even without overclocking. Nothing lags, everything is super quick.

    Just excellent for the money with very good performance when paired with 10ns or faster dual channel DDR4. Easy to cool and very high backwards compatibility with almost all am4 boarts able to upgrade to this even from X370/B350. 10/10

    This is a beast of a gaming cpu. And also this is my second 5800x 3d cpu. Can give me 170+ fps in wz2 and 200+ in apex, of course when pairing with same level GPU. But yeah you can play any game on this cpu without any hassle.

    Recently upgraded from the ryzen 5 to this because it was on sale. Didnt think it would be that significant of an improvement, but boy was I wrong. This paired with my 6800xt makes an astounding upgrade.

    Noticeable speed improvement coming from a 3700x in Windows 10 responsiveness. Dynamic under volting in conjunction with x570 motherboards and latest AGESA brings operating temps down to 3700x levels (using same heatsink <aftermarket ...not heatsink included with 3700x>). FAST!!!

    I know the new processors are out, but considering the prices of am5 motherboards, this is a great deal! This processor gives full performance with the right cooling and will get full performance of most graphic cards out there including the 3090 and 6900xt. What more do you need?
