Customer Ratings & Reviews

The latest and greatest AMD processor at a great value. The cpu is fast and is great for multitasking. It runs a bit hot on load but that is to be expected. No issues with this so far and on idle it stays cool around 35 degrees.

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

This was a Christmas gift for my son who gave me very specific specs. It installed easily and is a lot faster than his older model.

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

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

Works great, can't complain. Get some decent thermal paste, it does run hotter than intel CPUs I used, Plus overclocking can be tricky if you're used to intel like me. Undervolting will help with keeping the temperatures down without a performance hit, at least mine did. Definitely doesn't boost to 4.8 GHz so don't have high hopes for that.

12 cores does all I need for productivity, office work, and games. It runs cool until the boost kicks in and mine runs at 4.95 for most of the cores when it does; the only down side is my motherboard sets the cpu voltage crazy high which produces a lot of heat. It's a great cpu just be sure you've got great cooling for it too.

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

The Ryzen 9 5900X is a powerhouse! With its 12 cores and 24 threads, it delivers exceptional performance for gaming and content creation. The impressive boost clock of 4.8 GHz ensures smooth multitasking, while AMD's Zen 3 architecture shines in efficiency. The 7nm process enhances power efficiency, making it a top choice for high-end PC enthusiasts. Unleash the full potential of your system with the Ryzen 9 5900X!

I’m a video editor and needed something that could handle all the editing I’ve been doing. This CPU does just that. Not to mention the huge discount it had on top of it.

Granted this thing was a SUPER pain in the rear end to get my hands on, but now that I do and have it paired with a 6900XT, it runs beautifully. Its sitting under an AIO and I have 0 problems with temperature or any type of performance drop. If you can get your hands on it and have the money for it, do yourself a favor and pick one up.

Been roxking this for over a year. And its still a beast. Great gaming CPU. matcued with a 3080, i can play most games at 4k max settings with 60 fps.

I was rocking a ryzen 7 3700x for a few years. I didnt see the initial upgrade as something worth doing, boy was i wrong. Great CPU for gaming, video editting, and large workloads. Picked it up when it went on sale and i have no regrets. Highly recommended.

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.

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

A super strong processor with great speed and multitasking power, and it still holds up really well today. I liked how fast it feels in gaming and productivity, but I didn’t like that it doesn’t come with a cooler and it’s not on the newest platform anymore.

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.

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.

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