AMD Ryzensets 9 9950X Processor (integrated radeon graphics, 16 Cores/32 Threads, 170 W DTP, AM5 Socket, 80MB Cache, Up to 5.7 GHz Frequency Boost, No Cooler)

The Ryzen 9950x is an extremely powerful processor, don't let people or reviewers tell you otherwise. This thing pummels through multi core tasks and matches the 7800X3D without the X3D technology. This thing is efficient too and runs cooler then last gens 7950X. This is a must buy if you utilise 16 cores and is equally capable in gaming. Another task this CPU is excellent at is PS3 emulation, I can run 4K rock solid 60FPS. Well worth the high price.

Yet to find anything it can’t handle. Runs hot so check your cooling spec before installing

Great product, easy to install and working well with my new build, was a good price that I will use for gaming and productivity.

Lightning fast. Don't bother getting an X3D over this. If I could give 4.5/5 I would cause one chiplet is slighly slower than the other. I feel if you get 2 chiplets (8 cores on each) they should be identical. Since X3D version has the same problem I don't drop to 4 stars and this boosts quite a bit higher than that. Which offsets some of the gain of extra cache and sometimes beats it.

Good value for money

Brought for 3D rendering only, this is not a gaming CPU! For what I use it for, it's awesome

Top draw processor . The on board graphics are poor and glitchy even after dowloading the drivers and new updates from the AMD website

Same price as other outlets. But arrived next day. Works great in computer wit a couple of minor tweaks. Speeds up to 5.7 GHz. Noise level compares with other processors.
