Love this processor Went from a ryzen 5 2600 to this guy, noticable upgrade. Chip runs a little hot, definitely recommend water cooling it

In 2020 I built a brand new system, my first time using AMD processors. The step up from my de-lid liquid metal 7700K was huge. Performance for games and the recording studio. The processor is cool and quiet. Unless AMD turns into Intel and does nothing for 6yrs my next build in 3yrs will also be AMD.

This is the peak AM4 socket AMD CPU you can possibly get and it reflects. It is fast, it is smooth. I've thoroughly enjoyed the upgrade from the Ryzen 7 2700X CPU I had before.

This is a fantastic CPU and I have absolutely nothing but great things to say about it. I did get this when it was initially on sale, but it seems the price has settled to what I paid as the usual (or it's always on sale now). Yes, it's the previous generation. Yes, it uses DDR4 memory. Yes it uses the previous chipset from AMD. And? Still phenomenal! It can run a bit hot, especially if you overclock it (which I do not). That said, you should still get a beefy air cooler or a water cooler to keep things nice and cool. This is on a Gigabyte X570s motherboard with 64 GB memory. Works exceedingly well and my only complaint is that I waited so long to upgrade.

Insanely amazing CPU! Upgraded from Ryzen 5 5500 and I was blown away by the performance of the 5900x

Works perfectly can run games very well, haven’t had any problems

no complaints yet have had it about a year runs most games without any issues, have a 3080 and play mostly rist and have seen a huge frame increase since using a 3700x.

Rebuilt an existing desktop, replacing nearly all the components. This was my CPU choice, an upgrade from an Intel 5 series that was many moons old.

Bought this processor new and have been using it for over a year and love it

great at this price point, perfect for heavy work loads!

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, part of the 4th generation Ryzen series, is a 12-core, 24-thread unlocked desktop processor designed for high-performance gaming and content creation. Without a bundled cooler, it offers flexibility for users to choose their preferred cooling solution.

If you need one of the fastest gaming processors in the world look no further you found it. This thing screams. And has come a long way in a short time with the new Ryzen line. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking into a new build.

Crazy fast! It runs hot and i had to upgrade my cpu cooling (got a $40 arctic freezer dual fan setup) and it runs super cool. Havent had it go over 80°C since the upgrade

This processor works really well and doesn’t take long to load up my computer

By far my favorite product from bestbuy. Runs every game I could want flawless!

Still an absolute beast. If you're building an AM4 system and can find this CPU on sale, you should definitely pick one up - it's an insane value.

AMD has done it again 12 Core processor GEN four has performed great Pair up with a GEN four capable video card and Jen for NVM mean drive you get to unlock Sam which is infinity memory access affects gaming performance great processor with a good cooling unit performs great

Absolutely fantastic CPU. I don't do any production work but this CPU is fantastic for gaming and with 12 cores and 24 threads you know your ready for heavily multi-threaded games. I've got this bad boy scoring over 9000 in Cinebench R23 while being cooled with an EK 360mm AIO.

My favorite cpu to date. Just make sure you have a motherboard that's designed for it.

AMD outdoes itself with this top-of-the-line Processor. Are you a high-end gamer? This one is great! Fast with no hiccups or glitches.
