Review on 16-Core, 32-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor - AMD Ryzen 9 5950X by Ognian Nestorov ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

I am delighted with the capabilities of the processor. The comparison is not entirely correct, but I switched from an i7 6700k skylake that I bought in 2022. and the 5950s feel like switching from a Prius to a sports car.

Pros
  • At the time of writing (March 2022), there are practically no tasks that this processor could not handle. Both in games and in working with 3D graphics, judging by the load, he feels that these tasks are kindergarten for him. The potential is huge.
Cons
  • Get ready for high heat dissipation under load. Either a large tower cooler (Noctua NH-D15 or equivalent) or a dropsy is desirable. This is more likely not a drawback, but a reminder that good cooling is needed for such power.
