AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor

Upgraded from a Ryzen 3600. Streaming UHD with Dolby Atmos from pc to plex ( roku ultra ) just wasnt possible with the 3600. It would buffer, stop playing, just a no-go situation. Great for gaming tho (I am also an avid Black ops mp enthusiast with a 5700xt gpu). This cpu is amazing. EVERYTHING just runs smoothly. Ive only had it a few weeks, and I was a little salty about the price, but I did my research and reads LOTS of articles about the new zen 3 architecture and IPC etc. Gotta say...I dont see how AMD or Intel can top the performance of this cpu. Flat out just chews up anything I throw at it! Not overclocking it either.

S.o

Works great

Processeur très efficace mais chauffe beaucoup, avec un watercooling, cest parfait !

GENERAL INFORMATION

I came from a I7-6700k which is no slouch in most games but it was beginning to show its age with it being at the time a few weeks shy of being 6 generations old. On to the Ryzen 7 5800x. I was impressed when I put in the motherboard and it fired up the first time. I paired it with an Asus Prime x570-Pro, Samsung 980 Pro 4th gen PCIe, 32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3600MHz ram, Corsair H150i Elite Capellix (white), Corsair white RM850 PSU and a Corsair 7000X White Case. I reused my old drives and RTX 2070 GPU.

Had to bios flash my msi x370 pro carbon which I already knew but after some tuning and tweaking in the bios this thing is a monster, was so good we ordered more for the other rigs thx again

Seems to work great

Love it

This review is less of the product and more my experience with the return of the product.
