An awesome upgrade from my 3700x! In fact, think I got lucky in the silicon lottery as found that it even in general runs much cooler than my old 3700x ever did. A very fast processor that easily recommend if you are looking for an 8-core CPU.

A really great cpu i bought on sale, the only downside is that it fluctuate temperatures really fast in comparison to other models. It runs hot real fast so if you do get it make sure to have a cooler that can handle the heat. Overall great cpu.

Runs great idles at 35c haven’t given it a good stretch of the legs I still need new GPU to do that but with my old gpu have only gotten it up to 43c use a Corsair Icue h115i pro XT 280mm for cooling

Have always thought in my opinion that Ryzen makes a superior cpu and this 5800x is proof of that. Enough power for all your gaming needs and running mutliple programs. Highly recommend!!!

Upgraded from Ryzen 2700x. The Ryzen 5800x plugged right. It feels quite a bit faster, but that could do with my memory upgrade. These things are so fast who can really tell these days?

I got this processor at a huge discount after my previous one burnt out on me. It runs smooth and thanks to my membership at bestbuy they installed it for free.

I built my own gaming pc after getting an Xbox Series X, and Halo Wars 2 kept crashing on new console. I went with Amd Ryzen 5800k and Nvidia 3080 which is a great combo. Halo Wars 2, Star Wars Battlefront, COD Cold War, Star Fallen order look amazing in 4k.

This was a good upgrade for me amazingly fast and it runs all my programs at great FPS. I also appreciate Best Buy for thier inventory and pricing during these strange component buying times.

Just like the rest of the 5000 series, it's a great cpu. That said, video games will see little gain by going higher cards than the 5600x. The 5800x is the beginner of the "work pc" spectrum. Due to a different layout under the heat spreader, this card has an issue with running hot even under a top notch cooler. If youre fine with going into the bios to tweak the voltage and amps, great middleground cpu. Otherwise, go for 5600x for gaming. 5900x for work.

If you are building a gaming PC this is what I consider to be the minimum standard. Great product at great price; however gives you the ability to upgrade in the future if you need to.

I moved from a Ryzen 7 2nd gen to this one. I would say if you need the performance boost or you are building a new computer this is a great processor to grab. If you are upgrading from a 3rd gen, it is not as important to upgrade at this time.

Was such an improvement from my past cpu that was a Ryzen 5 3600

Works great and does what it needs to. Perfect replacement for my old processor. And the Best Buy staff did great installing it.

GREAT PERFORMACE IF YOU CAN GET YOUR HANDS ON IT, PAIRED IT WITH A NVIDFIA 3090 AND THE GAMING IS SUPERB! IT DOERS A GREAT JOB OF MULTI-TASKING and I HAVBE YET TO EXPERIENCE ANY CRASHES OR LAG

I give it 5stars. But I cant tell any difference between this one and the 6500x. Their both are just as good, but the 5600x is cheaper & uses less power

I love it works like a chime it’s great runs great

Its was the best pice to perfromance. Will handle any new modern game. I paired with a 4070 at 1440p and allmost no bottleneck runs Cyber Punk with gpu at 100%

AMD has been a force to be reckoned with. This processor can do it all. I mosty game on my PC but I do use it for class work and coding. I have rendered some vidoe as well. When this product has a sale price it needs to be snatched up.

Very good processor for gaming and budget builds. I paired this up with a 3080ti and can play even the most demanding games. Good processor overall.

The best cpu ever I get so much frames and game is so smoove now
