Woo woo! Glad I went with this. I was going to get the 5800X3D because I primarily use this system for gaming, but ended up with this. With the curve optimizer, I'm getting clock speeds of 5150GHz consistently when the application needs it. I have a -20 magnitude adjustment on all cores and its been stable on all my applications. Where is Intel?? I can't hear em. And nor can you hear my fans as this CPU is running cool with only 2 140mm fans in a mini-itx case. Good job AMD.

Runs like a champ. Mine boosts above advertised boost clock (4.85Ghz) with no OC. Runs 10-20C cooler than my i7 which has a 40W lower TDP, so IHS seems high quality.
Major props to Best Buy for rolling these out in such a way that real people can actually buy them.

I jumped from 3700x anddddd was contemplating about this or the "better value" 5800x. I am super glad that I went with the 5900x! If you can get it, grab it right away! You won't regret it.

I love this CPU, if you can get it do so.
And now that I have the chip, I'd like to formally answer my own question...Yes this chip will handle MS paint @4k settings. =P

Great processor. If you cool it properly, it won’t go over 70-75, at least in my case. If you’re buying just for gaming, consider one of the X3D processors instead.

Coming from a 3700x just so I can future proof my PC this CPU is the real deal. I personally wanted a 5800x but for slighty more money boy do you get even more performance.
With some tuning I am able to hit 4.95 mhz regularly and usually average around 4.8.
Its an incredible CPU that definitely ended the AM4 era with a bang.
