CPU works how it should no flaws there tends to run warm but tuning voltage fixes. When i ordered on release Farcry6 was advertised for free to be included. Contacted both AMD and memexpress to make sure id get my key as shipping delay would cause it to happen after redemption period. Both AMD and Memory express gave me the run around and told me too bad. Terrible experience with AMD.

Great CPU, runs hot but with a good high end cooler, works amazing.

Don't have any just the computer games crazy.

Might as well, go big or go home.

incredible single and multi core performance. good power efficiency and thermals. great all around chip for both gaming and workstations

asking price in Canada is $100 over MSRP

Don't settle for a Ryzen 5 or 7 when the Ryzen 9 5900X is clearly the right choice.

Price per compute Am4 TDP

I don't know how I got one. AMD will never make this pricing mistake again.

Its too good. If they don't release a 300$ R9 5000 SKU this might go down as the best compute per dollar for quite a while.

Very strong performance all around, be it gaming compiling or running VM , nothing seems to bother this one, it is basically the no compromises processor. Memory overclocking capabilities far exceeded my first generation Ryzen chip the 5900x replaced. Not only did xmp profile work right away, I was able to make it go further than advertised. Not that hot for a 12 core chips, a good air cooler is enough to keep it well under control, power draw is well within acceptable range as well.

Make sure your BIOS is up to date No included cooler

If you are looking for a no compromises made processor, this is the one you are looking for. If you decide to enable PBO, make sure to at least limit the voltage a bit, as it can go a bit too hard at default PBO settings.

Cant stop thinking about it

Still don't have a physical chip

One day I will have this chip.
