Everything about the purchase suits me, a very necessary product.

It's funny, for some reason all the negative reviews are written in such a hysterically illiterate style that one gets the impression that they were written by schoolchildren who only saw this processor in reviews :-) By the way, never get fooled by synthetic tests and "reviews" 7 "A".

Literally a week ago I finished assembling a server for a department of 25 people (all PCs are weak, the RDP server was raised on this). Estimate the scale:

25 users every day work with documents (M $ Office 2022), the last eighth 1C (gluttonous thing), Consultant Plus, VLIS ++ (generally out), plus browsers, cleaners and other devilry, admins will understand. I installed openSUSE Linux on the server, on it the Xen virtualizer, in which:

- four (!) virtual Windows 7, one of which, in fact, is allocated 14 cores, 50 GB of RAM and a 10 TB dmRAID-5 array, under which 22 people work via RDP (Windows is patched, of course) (!), the rest are allocated separate virtual machines (as it should be);
- one CentOS with native server 1C and Apache (users work under thin clients);
- file server on Ubuntu, nothing special, normal load;
- Susya herself sends an incremental backup to the old server once a week (for those who are interested, I have a description in the comment history).

So, this whole thing doesn’t just fly, it’s like lightning! _NEVER_, even in the most "hot" periods there were no complaints about the brakes! Accountants do not even have time to get up and turn on the kettle while their reports are being generated (the base is bold), documents in M$O are opened INSTANTLY, packs of ates on Susya are installed in half a minute! Just imagine - 25 people, 6 virtual PCs, and no brakes! I didn’t look at the load average, so I can’t say about the total load, but in Windows 7 (in which 22 people work), the maximum CPU load peak was 60%, the average load was 28-30%.

I don’t care a thousand times what corrupt reviewers will write and how many minuses the bugging intel drivers will put, the processor is a bomb! AMD is slow to harness, but if it goes. :-)

Pros

We are talking about the AMD Ryzen 7 1800X, I will not name the motherboard so as not to advertise, 64 GB of memory, 5x4 TB disks in the array, I am writing in March 2022. - optimization not only for games, but also for technical tasks - this is a mega plus, for powerful, but inexpensive servers, just a song (see comment); - transcendent computing power (see comment), really amazing; - 16 cores; - capacious cache; - PRICE (1/3 of similar Intel); - very low heat dissipation, does not require powerful cooling; - new technologies and goodies (pulls DDR4, ECC, I generally keep quiet about processor extensions); - I just don’t know the task that could load it at least 70%; - even reviewers praise and do not pour mud, which is strange.

Cons

- with motherboards from ASUS, judging by the reviews, there are problems with the BIOS. For some reason, they always have problems with new AMD; - Windows 10 has not yet released a patch for its normal support (there are glitches). But who in their right mind uses Windows 10? (joke) :-) - it is not entirely clear who needs such power at home (I mean that it is more suitable for servers).
