    Runs Cool & Crazy Fast After Tuning
    Got lucky with the silicon on this chip — absolute beast once you dial it in. I’ve got it running with an all-core CO at -30, no boost override, and stability is flawless. Also tweaked VCORE SOC and VDDG CCD/IOD in BIOS to keep memory and fabric happy, which made a huge difference. Temps stay cool even under full load thanks to a custom Corsair loop, and no crashes or throttling anywhere. Easy to install, compatible with X870 mobos and the power consumption top tier.Handles everything I throw at it — gaming, streaming, multitasking — buttery smooth. If you’re comfortable fine-tuning BIOS settings, there’s a lot of performance headroom here without sacrificing stability. Pair it with good cooling and this CPU will absolutely fly.

    Do you like raw power?
    This chip is the most powerful one I’ve purchased yet. It’s definitely good for someone who multitasks and even handles virtualization very well. Gaming performance is also great. So why did I get this chip instead of the X3D variant? Well, because I didn’t want to have to mess with the annoying core parking and also I didn’t want to deal with the reliability issues of the 3D cache variants. I do a lot more than gaming so I found this processor to be ideal for my application. It’s rock solid stable on an X870 board and I haven’t had a single crash yet. No blue screen or anything. I am extremely happy with this ship and it stays cool under load with a simple 360mm AIO. You will not be disappointed with this chip. BUY IT!

    WORTH IT, Highly recommend
    If exotic sports cars were cpus this would be one of em. Super fast overclocked running stable and cool using lian lis hydroshift Ii air cooler

    32 cores and 5.7ghz speed, pretty insane
    It gets HOT, but it’s an absolute beast. Also this has almost as a 3d processor in the uhh I forgot what it’s called, v-cache, wait isn’t that GPU.. Ehh hopefully you know what I mean.. My brain just not working atm.With PPO on Auto, as I type this I have 4 windows of games running via a script, 2 windows of VS code, 40 or so browser windows open, I’m using 4% of my PC power and it’s running at 5.6Ghz.I stay around 55-60c temps, but if I start gaming on high load games or start doing major video compressing via scripts and such, it will jump up to 90c briefly.

    Super fast CPU!
    Fast ASF!This thing is super fast in every single scenario.Beware this thing is hot!It runs idle at around 55°C you need a good AIO pump and a good thermal paste.

    Outstanding Performance – 100% Satisfied!
    The AMD Ryzen™ 9 9950X is absolutely amazing. It delivers incredible performance and handles everything I throw at it with ease. Super fast, smooth, and efficient. I’m 100% satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend it to anyone looking for top-tier performance.

    Works to perfection
    This is a brilliant processor at a reasonable price. So why not 5 stars? Well the reason is the 9950X3D. Yes, it carries a considerable price premium, but it has the same base clock speed (4.3GHz) and the cache is able to mitigate the limitations of intra-chiplet communications. The result is that, in business applications, the 9950X3D is approx 2% faster than the 9950X. But the real gain comes in gaming where the 9950X3D is, at time of review, simply the fastest gaming CPU on the market. Hence the premium price.I installed my 9950X on an ASUS ROG STRIX X670E A-gaming motherboard with 32GB of high performance DDR5 memory. There were no issues configuring the board or loading Windows 11 Pro. I thoroughly recommend using a water-to-air heatsink for this CPU and motherboard combination. The problem is that most modern gaming cards seem to use through-card cooling, which means hot air is blown direct onto a chip-mounted heatsink! Not good news! A water-to-air cooler, mounting the fins at the front or top of the machine, solves this issue. The 9950X (or X3D version) needs good heat dissipation!Overall, this is a cost effective CPU that offers fantastic performance and is easy to setup on the 670E chipset motherboards. Memory ran at the recommended sweet spot without problems, and provided you employ just two sticks of RAM, you should have no problems.AMD CPU’s have the momentum from Intel. I was even able to buy a 9060XT (16GB) at close to the RRP!Can I recommend this CPU? Absolutely. Even doing data science and perform mathematical transforms on Very Large Datasets, I see no slow down in performance after several hours of maxing-out the cores. Would I buy the 9950X3D over the 9950X? Yes, but unless you are a hardcore game, the 9950X is the better choice when you’re on a budget.

    Raw Power, Great Gaming CPU
    This chip is an absolute beast! I bought this for my new gaming build, and it can easily handle anything you throw at it. With the right voltage optimization and cooling, it can run pretty cool as well.I considered getting the 9900X before getting this, but I’m glad I got the extra 4 cores. The 32 threads means I can play pretty much any game I want without having to worry about the CPU being the bottleneck, and I can run VMs and still have CPU resources to spare.AMD has really outdone themselves with this chip, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with it! The price might seem high, but it’s worth every cent.

    CPUn slutade plötsligt att fungera efter ca 4 månader i ett nytt system.Enligt lag ska denna CPU gå att få utbytt. Men detta visar sig omöjligt.

    Ótimo processador. Melhorou bastante meus trabalhos que envolvem muito o uso do processador.

    Ich habe diese CPU nach langer Überlegung und Recherche gekauft. Die Daten waren vielversprechend.Die Ryzen 9 Serie hatte unter Windows anfangs Probleme, die am Windows lagen, denn unter Linux waren sie von anfang an Leistungs-Monster.Diese CPU ist absolute Spitze. Einige erste Erfahrungen:20 Minuten FullHD Video in AV1 oder HEVC werden in unter 2 Minuten gecoded … im Powersave ModeAV1-FullHD wird mit links gecoded, wieder im Powersave. Auch 4K schafft sie spielen, hier fehlt aber noch eine geeignete Capture-Karte für ausführliche Tests. Zum Vergleich: ein Ryzen 7 5800 oder 3800 verschluckt sich bei AV1-Videos hoffnungslos.Der Linux Kernel default wir im phoronix Benchmark in 45 Sekunden kompiliert, bei mir 46 Sekunden. Damit schließt er an die Spitzengruppe der CPUs an, und das zu einem 6tel bis 20tel des jeweiligen Preises.Die CPU läuft bei mir fast durchgängig im Powersave, selbst wenn ich damit 60 virtuelle Maschinen gleichzeitig betreibe. Nur selten schalte ich sie mal auf den “normalen” Modus “balanced”. D.h. sie ist auch meistens deutlich kühler als 60°. Ich habe “nur” eine leistungsfähige Luftkühlung eingebaut, werde jetzt aber mal einen Wasserkühler testen, denn mit Luftkühlger (beQuiet 5 Rock) kann sie schon einmal für wenige Sekunden bei maximaler Leistung 94 ° C Spitze erreichen, normal sind allerdings 58-80°, je nach Last.Die Leistung ist absolut fantastisch. Was immer ich ihr aufgebe macht sie mindestens 5-10 Mal schneller als mein Ryzen 7 5800, von meinen diversen Intel CPU ganz zu schweigen.Was spricht gegen diese CPU? Wenn man diese ungeheure Leistung nicht benötigt, als für’s Büro, macht sie keinen Sinn. Für Video-Bearbeitung oder Gaming ist sie exzellent, unter Linux dürfte die Kodier-Leistung der der berühmten M-Prozessoren von Arm nahe kommen. Auch im Gaming ist sie exzellent, vor allem wenn man die ca 250-300 Euro Mehrpreis für die 3D-Variante scheut, die dann noch mal je nach Anwendung zwischen 1% bis 20% mehr Leistung liefert.Der Ryzen 9 9950X hat ein exzellentes Preis-Leistungverhältnis. Für anspruchsvolle PC-Aufgaben, dir vor allem massives Multitasking oder Video-Kodierung verlangen, eine klare Kaufempfehlung. Besondere Empfehlung für Linux, hier spielt die CPU ihre ganze Leistung vollkommen ungebremst aus.

    Gran CPU que sin tener la caché del X3D tiene los nucleos y un rendimiento increible
