My current system has been meeting my needs and wanted to get a bit more life out of it.
My B350 motherboard has had a BIOS update out for a while to take the newer chips.
Bought this 5800x so that I can get a bit more life out of Windows 11 (hopefully more time before this chip is unsupported vs my 2700).
System is slicker, faster and my GPU seems to be getting what it needs more consistently. I am seeing smoother overall gameplay and much quicker times when rendering video.
Highly recommended.

It’s hard to believe that just 5 years ago an 8 core 16 thread CPU cost well over $100 USD and now the 2700 can be found for $150 (as is could for the last two years) while the 3700X for $279.99 is quite a bargain as well. So is the 5800X worth 33% of a 2016 8/16 from Intel? Or 50% more than a 3700X? 250% more than a 2700?!? That’s actually a tough call, so I’ll go with a *maybe.* If you already have a 2700 and game, 4k and don’t rely too heavily on Photoshop or rendering scenes/videos, then no, I don’t think it is. If you have a 3700X or 9900/K or better that turns into a hard no unless you really need those extra few minutes it will save you rendering over the course of a day (if that). Now if you have a 2700X or lower and play games at something =/<1440p then you may certainly want to consider it.
Besides noticing an immediate difference in little things, like how quick the mouse is on my desktop compared to a 2700, my in-game FPS is up roughly 10% @1440p with a paltry XFX 5700 non-XT. I definitely didn’t expect that much of a difference, but since I still plan on upgrading my GPU, most likely in late August or September when the lower prices in the East start making their way to the Western markets, I thought “Why not, you’ll just end up spending the extra money on something silly, and you’ve been squirreling money away since the launch of the 6800/XT and 6900XT’s were released. By the time I settled on what GPU I wanted and would benefit me most when I work from home, the prices were so silly I didn’t want to contribute to an unhealthy consumer market considering I have another PC I use for 85% of my work. To my surprise, it did help my GPU out quite a bit more than expected, while greatly improving efficiency in CAD.
While the gaming performance is great, and I don’t anticipate hitting any bottlenecks with the 6800XT or 3080Ti (the 3080 would be a fantastic match for gaming and home office work *if* it wasn’t so RAM starved, which I see being a big problem within the next couple of years; what was Nvidia thinking? Bleh, giving it the same amount of RAM as mid-range cards from 2016?). The chip itself burns through most workstation tasks faster than any other 8/16 I have ever used. At stock speeds it sips power, runs very cool (I’m using the stock Wraith Prism that came with the 65 Watt 2700) even when gaming, while having no problem keeping it’s 4.7 boost for as long as needed. In CPU intensive games like Cyberpunk 2077, Bannerlord or Red Dead Redemption 2 the chip laughs as it might hit 78c and continues to jog along at 4.7, without missing a beat until the action slows down. Baldur’s Gate 3 is also a joy to play over the 2700 in battles since it runs through so many different scenarios and variables with every NPC before taking that character’s action for the round. 7-10 seconds per NPC has turned into 1-2, which is fantastic when you have 30 bad guys on the field.
That said, it is a pretty good value for the money if you are upgrading a pre-2017 system or a 6/12 or lower thread count CPU. If you’re building a mid-range to high-end gaming PC it’s fantastic, and is a great option for a home workstation. I could even see running a virtual machine or two with it in a pinch. It really is a dynamic, blazing fast CPU that will probably last a good 3-7 years depending on your needs.

I have had this CPU for around exactly one year now. Normally I do all my tech reviews fairly early but I wanted to really use this chip, overclock it, game, and do lighting editing as well. To start off my full system is a Ryzen 5800X, Asus X570-Pro board, 32GB of 3600mhz G.Skill CL16 memory (4x8GB), EVGA G3 Supernova 850 watt 80+ Gold PSU, EVGA RTX 2070 Super GPU, Cooler Master NR600 Case, Noctua NH-D15 Chromax Black Edition CPU cooler. I have two Gen 4 NVMe drives and 4 normal sata SSD drives. My case is filled with all Cooler Master Masterpro ARGB high CFM airflow fans. I’m also using an internal wireless card as well as my particular x570 board doesn’t come with onboard WiFi. My reason for stating all this is the airflow and cooling in my case is exceptional. I have one of the highest airflow cases, with some of the best fans, one of the best CPU coolers, and I’m using Thermal Grizzly Kryonaunt paste which is hands down the best CPU test for overclocking and temps in general imo. Stating all this because YOUR temps may be different than mine as well as your results. To start of with the chip I’ve not had ONE single issue with it so far after a year of use. ALL I have done to it after installing it in place of the Ryzen 3600 that it replaced was I enabled DOCP on my memory which is AMDs version of XMP and I enabled PBO on my chip with the max limit set at 200mhz. That it all I touched. This chip boosts to 5.1ghz when using 2-3 cores or less easily and even if under full load will still stay around 4.75ghz on all 8 cores at 100% load. In a more realistic load like gaming it runs around 4.75-4.95ghz. Under full load like Prime95 my temps top out around 74C. Idle is around low 30s and while gaming it bounces around 55-65C. It runs super fast and super cool. This is all on air cooling too. When going from the 3600 to the 5800X while every single other aspect of my system remained the same I gained anywhere from 10 fps to over 20 fps on some games. I play at 1440P as well. If you play at 1080P your results will be even better. This is the best chip I’ve ever used and owned. My RTX 2070 Super is overclocked 1100mhz on the memory and 140mhz on the core. On benchmarks my scores beat all stock and even factory OC 2080 Supers. They also beat almost all RTX 3060 ti results as well. I’ve never played a single game where this chip bottlenecks my card ever. Whereas with the 3600 it did from time to time. Especially in games using DLSS which renders the game at a much lower resolution then upscales it. That makes the game way more CPU demanding and in titles with DLSS my fps increase was huge. Absolutely amazing cpu for gaming and you don’t have to do anything other than enable PBO. Gone are the days of manual overclocking to get all the performance you paid for. The chips auto boost themselfs as high as they can go basically all by themselves now. If you have any Zen + or Zen 2 chip and wanna upgrade to Zen 3 aka Ryzen 5000 I say it’s well worth it for gaming. The IPC increase on Ryzen 5000 over 3000 series is huge. Over 30% faster. I’ve included pictures of my setup, CPUz info, benchmark results, MSI Afterburner temperature info after playing Witcher 3 at 1440P on Ultra settings for hours, and many other others. The chip boosts high, runs cool, requires basically no knowledge to get max performance from it outside of TWO toggles in the bios, and at its current price is an amazing value imo. Fast enough to pair any GPU on the market with it if you can find one. I’ve been wanting a 3080 forever now but just no luck. I paid the MSRP of 450 for this chip and don’t regret it at all. No crashes, no issues ever, never breaks 70C while daily use/gaming no matter how long, boosts over 5ghz, and has enough cores/threads if you wanna stream and multitask while gaming you’re good to go. I think AMD did an amazing job with Zen 3 and if you’re interested in the 5800X for gaming/streaming you won’t go wrong. Hope this review helped and if it does please leave a like. Enjoy the pics and thanks for reading.

Es un procesador bastante bueno, vengo de un Ryzen 5 5600g y la diferencia es mucha, pude sacarle aún más provecho a varios juegos, sólo hay que tener en cuenta que levanta una considerable temperatura asà que no escatimen en comprar un buen disipador de torre y NO hagan undervolt si quieren conseguir todo el potencial de este CPU

Okay so first of all – i bought mine used from amazon warehouse for 145$ and it arrived in the original CPU plastic enclosure, nicely wrapped in bubble wrap, inside of a box inside of a larger box!
Well packaged!
Pristine condition, not a scratch on it!
Perfectly functional.
Amazon warehouse – great prices, save money! No need to buy new 😉
And now onto the review – holy mother of spiciness! I run a Dark Rock Pro 4, one of the best air coolers on the market, and by default, this thing was running a freaking 95C
I thought I messed up with my thermal-paste application.
Using Kryonaut from ThermalGrizzly. Checked it all, reapplied the paste. Same temps.
SPICY CHIP!
So I went into PBO (Precision boost Overclock) and adjusted the Curve Optimizer. (RECOMMENDED SETTINGS : Curve Optimizer – Manual, NEGATIVE 24 (that is -24) ALL CORE)
ALl other settings – auto.
Will drop the temps by 8-11C for you.
Under normal gaming sessions I now run around 70-76C and benchmarking with Cinebench I hit 86C tops.
Couldn’t get my all core to -25, I know some people had that, my cpu isn’t that stable. But -24 Curve Optimizer works good.
Clock speeds around 4.85GHz single core spikes. About 4.6GHz all core sustained for 30 minutes of Cinebench.
Cinebench score of 14000-14500 on multi-core test with my -24 Curve Optimizer.
Very good CPU! but DO adjust that CO like i said, trust me!
