Type of review

I took the OEM version for 22400r in the fall of the 19th with a 3 year warranty. The whole thing works with the MSI X570 A-PRO MP, DDR4 HyperX 2400 16Gb (2x8Gb) temporary memory, a GTX 1060 6Gb video card (I would also change .), a system on an SSD from Transcend, games and more on ordinary fast HDDs. Initially, a cheaper config was planned (on the 3600th and 370 or 470 chipset), but I decided to take a walk anyway))) A fresh BIOS was immediately uploaded to the board, and a fresh W10 Pro x64…

Pros
  • Power. He's impressive. Especially after the i7 3770, it's just heaven and earth. Minimizing games or switching between applications is just instant. I didn’t even know that the W10 could work so fast, roughly speaking, you don’t even keep up with the response. Now I'm used to it and I can't imagine what it was like before. The computing power is more than sufficient. Rendered a video, the speed was impressive. I don’t know why it is compared with i7, but in some moments it gives odds to i9. Almost in all, according to the tests. In addition to games, of course, they do not count)) At this price, the "blue" have no competitors. In addition, I consider the presence of multi-flow + solder under the lid to be a huge plus. Well, big caches. There is nowhere to drive it, so solder is a plus only in better thermal conductivity and durability. I heard a lot of reviews, they say out of 10 processors, only 3 will be successful in terms of temperature. Apparently, I was lucky, under an inexpensive 6-pipe cooler and the remains of some incomprehensible thermal paste, the temperature in games does not exceed 35 degrees. I can’t tell you the performance under load, because at some point Aida went crazy and began to show 50 degrees on the desktop, gradually falling to 40-45. In terms of speed with a load, this is 4.3-4.5, I didn’t exactly spot it.
Cons
  • There is none of them.

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

If the price suits you - you can take it, if you need a multi-stream - you can take it. If you want to learn undervolting, find out where turbo boost is disabled in the BIOS, how to make the processor work with all cores at the frequency you need (within the limits of possibility). To be upset that it is heating up, then, having figured out how it can work, set it all up and be glad that it is really good - then welcome. all the pictures I found while trying to set up and tests in Cinebench20…

Pros
  • many cores for reasonable money at that time. at a voltage of 1.3 V, it takes 4.4 GHz for all cores (I watched the review of Remontyash on YouTube, his copy took this frequency at a voltage of 1.2 V) and this was the best use case. You can stream on the processor! for example, for twitch there are restrictions on 6000 kbit traffic, when streaming FHD on cores with such traffic, the picture turned out much better than when streaming through a video card (we are talking about the stream of "shooters", and not about a person in a room with good lighting). with manual settings, you can use an inexpensive turret for cooling, I had 3 tubes.
Cons
  • without a tambourine and dancing - this is a stove. (without previous experience with similarly powerful ryzens). on automatic settings, my motherboard applied 1.5+ Volts to the cores and it heated up like a forge . you need fast memory at least 3600 MHz or, more precisely, memory that can operate at this frequency (my dice were XMP profile 3000 MHz, but worked on 3600) When using thick thermal paste (I used GD900), when removing the cooler, it pulls out of the socket and remains on the base of the cooler - there is a risk of bending the legs or chipping off the textalite.

Not a bad purchase, worth the money.

Raising the memory frequency above 3600 does not make sense, because. in this case, the intraprocessor bus switches to 2:1 mode and starts operating at half the DRAM frequency, which negatively affects the overall performance (memory latency increases, copy speed drops, etc.). The fact that the speed of writing to memory is half that of reading is recognized by AMD and is explained by the peculiarities of the architecture. The same feature is observed in 3600 and 3700, but is absent in 3900…

Pros
  • Price/performance ratio. Full 8 cores + 8 virtual. High performance rating in single thread mode (even slightly above 3900x). Despite the stated support for DDR4 only up to 3200, the memory controller works stably up to 3600.
Cons
  • Out of the declared TDP in the Prime95 SmallFFT stress test with stock BIOS settings Combo-AM4 1.0.0.4 Patch B (see comment). The cooler from the BOX version is not suitable for cooling this processor. In Aida64's synthetic benchmarks, memory write speeds are twice as slow as read speeds.

I can't stop being happy with the purchase, a very good deal!

I strongly recommend! In a year I'll upgrade to a Ryzen 9 3950X (there is support for a flooded BIOS in the mother), or even a 4800XT (if a BIOS for my 16-phase ASRock Fatal1ty X370 Professional Gaming comes out). Some pros: With Be Quiet cooler! Dark Rock Pro 4, Be Quiet! Straight Power 11 1000 W and a silent GeForce GT710 graphics card with a heatsink - silence. Incredibly satisfied. Long chose - what to take. I decided not to wait for the LGA1200 to enter the market - as there will be an…

I am amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

Excellent %, a touch warm, but after you put the tower in place, everything works perfectly. Cons: I didn't buy it at the optimal time for the price, and when it arrived, the item was wrapped in a piece of plastic, fastened with rubber bands, and labeled "fragile" on the package.

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

I am completely satisfied with the purchase Proc ; AMD RYZEN 7-3800X mother; X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING (rev. 1.0) Video card; MSI 1050TI memory; kingston hyperx fury 16gb 2400 overclocked to 3200

Pros
  • a good stone, I did not find any problems with it, thanks to the people who write reviews and attach photos to this. I bought a stone with a boxed cooler, set the cooler to hard work, and I don't care about the noise. I put on a stone 4500 prii 1.25v in idle time it heats up from 36 to 39 degrees. Haven't tested in games yet. I realized one thing I need more airflow for the case, in my case so far 1 cooler for blowing out and 1 for blowing in, this is not enough =D
Cons
  • The stone heats up, of course, well compared to intel, but good coolers will fix everything. Haven't found anything yet

The perfect product for any user!

works in tandem with Thermalright Macho and msi x570 gaming plus board, PSU Coguar 800w 80Gold, in stress test at 100% load for 16 threads with all cores at 4250GHz in standard overclocking from MSI, warms up to 102-103 degrees, the temperature no longer rises , holds frequencies, does not trot. Began to understand why so hot. 1. replaced thermal paste 3 times more efficient 2. added 3 coolers 140mm, two for blowing, 2 for blowing 3. tension. An interesting moment with the voltage, turned off…

Pros
  • gaming performance overclocking to 4450 and 4500GHz memory runs at 3600MHz/1800MHz
Cons
  • You need to lower the voltage otherwise the standard motherboard boost algorithms overheat the processor.

The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

I’m not a fanboy of any of the camps. Before that, I was Intel, but now I took AMD because they give top performance and for sane money. to which Intel has nothing to answer. (And there are no prospects for a couple of years . this is for the best - there should be competition, let Intel get together and give something new in a couple of years . they sat up resting on their laurels) By the very process: there was a choice between 3700x and 3800x, but since the price differed by 800, I took the…

Pros
  • Power, price, manufacturability (4 PSI-E, 16 threads)
Cons
  • Hot, which is expected, but you can live and fight with it if you dig a little in the BIOS (since PBO sets a deliberately high voltage) + budget tower cooler for 3k

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

I will be brief - after purchase and installation, I did everything as it was written earlier - I removed PBO, manually set the voltage, I was unpleasantly amazed at the idle temperature, etc. And then I read an article about overclocking these processors, where I came across a link from the AMDcommunity. In it, in simple and understandable English, it was reported that for all processors of the 1700X and 1800X series, the tCTL temperature sensor overestimates the temperature by exactly +20…

Pros
  • Power, acceleration
Cons
  • Temperature sensor misinformation (more on that below)

I'm a little disappointed, not a good buy.

Here's how it is: Delivery arrived from . Packed was percent as it should. A plastic case, then a shipping film, then a shockproof film, and corton on top. So I made a video of the layout of the board, I made a video of the layout of the hard ones, I made a video of the layout of everything - except for the processor and the case. Because in appearance and in tests, the entire delivery is OK. But, as for evil, it was with the process that the set-up came out. Namely - a bent pin (the last pin…

Pros
  • Excellent price.
Cons
  • Broken pin.

Performs its functions, nothing unusual.

I switched from 4790k + ROG Hero 7 + DDR3 2400, the card remained the same 2080, the result amazed me! Synthetics increased by 2 times, and FPS, God forbid, by 5-10%. This is on my old system, and the lines were divided into 8 per card and SSD. Given the price of components, I can only reassure myself that the rtx3080 will work in 4.0, in terms of performance, I did not see a difference with my old system.

Pros
  • - 8 cores - Modern harness
Cons
  • - Having to adjust memory timings, even with a calculator, entering 52 different values ​​​​looking for magic abbreviations in the BIOS is a cool adventure, don't you want to? At least for synthetics -10% performance as from a bush. - My percent has never even reached 4.3 GHz (bequiet dark rock 4 pro - by the way it turned out to be noisier than the last noctua, but maybe it's time to change the case, xs).

Average product, you can do better.

1) When overclocking the processor, you can achieve many times greater values ​​when passing the same tests in CN 15, CPU-Z, in other words, it works with a bang in counting and rendering, but all this comes to naught, at a processor temperature of 70-80 degrees , when running under a custom liquid cooling system 2) When overclocking the processor to 4.4, it asks for 1.430-1.450v in my case, everything seems to be fine, but in this situation I saw no reason to change my 2700x to this processor,

Pros
  • This processor has a performance of 25-30% superior to the same ryzen 7 2700x, which is good news, everything works stably, however, this processor is prone to overheating and running at 1.526 voltage, which is not good in the long run
Cons
  • Wild temperatures, all the details in the description

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

I took this percentage to replace my r5 2600 as I turned up on favorable terms for me. What we have, over 4 GHz out of the box, a lot of cores, almost instant response in multitasking, power will last for 7 years, FPS in games on my system has increased significantly compared to 2600. only up to 4.2 GHz and this is on the deepcool redhat tower, secondly, it constantly rushed back and forth in terms of voltage, because of which the poor fan on the cooler did not know what to do and revved, and…

Pros
  • Power, power consumption*
Cons
  • Hot, need to be manually finished

Best I have ever used, great product for anyone!

I use it in a relatively compact case (coolermaster q500l), the use of monstrous towers is limited by its width, and the blowdown leaves much to be desired. So, with the scythe mugen 5 cooler with disabled PBO and manually set voltage / multiplier, we managed to achieve 4.4 GHz for all cores absolutely calmly. At the same time, the temperature in idle is 35-40, under a stress test in the region of 70-74. It works absolutely stably, if desired, you can drive further. Motherboard gigabyte aorus…

Pros
  • Performance, overclocking capability proportional to available cooling.
Cons
  • As they write in the comments - a sad situation with inadequate PBO.

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

I took the frequency when manually setting 4.4 at 1.256 V, jumps to 1.3 V on the Asus prime X370 PRO motherboard after ating the BIOS during auto overclocking, the frequency was 4.2, the voltage jumped to 1.4 V. The only thing that strains the idle temperature, according to AIDA, is not less than 42 degrees with jumps up to 46 in operation no more than 60 under Deepcool Assasin 2 due to this cooler is constantly in operation, I don’t know if it should be like this or not at 1600x it wasn’t like

Pros
  • Good features for your money
Cons
  • The box in which almost the top processor is supplied is just a stand so that the legs do not bend at a time when my 1600x OEM was supplied in a normal box

I bought a OEM pebble (with 1 year warranty) in Online Trade in January 2022. I put it on an excellent motherboard ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VII HERO on the 470th chipset. The power supply is also cool (SEASONIC PRIME GOLD SSR-850). And the cooler (be quiet! DARK ROCK PRO 4), as well as everything else (case, video card, etc.). I put ten, I didn’t accelerate much (the car flew anyway). But, unfortunately, in March 2022, the processor burned out. In the morning everything worked, in the evening I came…

Pros
  • Inexpensive, powerful, cold, fast
Cons
  • Burned out after 2 years and 2 months. A rare option, I agree, for the first time in my life I encounter this .

Best price for this product, will buy more!

An unpleasant moment - on the boxed cooler and the GIGABYTE X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING motherboard, constant change of speed on the cooler. In silence it is very audible. At the slightest activity (yes, even move the mouse), the speed jumps, and it makes noise. And the boxed cooler does not hold well even in the regular mode. Under full load, the temperature drops to 95 degrees. Overclocking is not possible. I'm looking at water cooling, maybe it will help in terms of silence.

Pros
  • Good. Especially in work tasks (video editing).

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

AMD has almost always made compromise products. That is, if you feel sorry for the money for top-end hardware from Intel / Nvidia, take AMD, but with a number of reservations. In the 3000 line, there are fewer of these reservations, in my opinion. This processor is enough for the eyes of my GTX 1070 Ti. And in rendering and resource-intensive tasks, it is much faster than analogues from Intel for a similar price. For fans of just playing and overclocking, I do not recommend it. Buy yourself an…

Pros
  • Top performance for a reasonable price. Performance in games - at a decent level. You won't notice a slight lag behind Intel. In rendering and other tasks that require processor power, it is much faster and preferable to more expensive competitors from you-know-who. Support for PCI-EXPRESS 4.0 is a good start for the future.
Cons
  • Very high temperature. With dropsy Cooler Master MasterLiquid 240, during long renders in C4D, the temperature reaches 75.76 degrees (according to the diode CPU sensor, not the "lid sensor"). I am silent about stress tests, that's why they are stress tests. Aida64 - approximately 80 degrees (full load on the CPU, video card, memory, etc.) In games, it is slightly inferior to the i7 8700K and analogues from Intel. But who cares?! For a smooth picture (without stripes on the screen), you still have to turn on vertical sync in almost all games. As a result, we still have 60 frames per second.

Great value for money, one of the best offers.

I bought new hardware in January 2022, this processor is in conjunction with Asus X570-a pro, 512gb m2 drive, nvidia 2070 super, hyperx 3200mhz, and 27" 144hz full hd monitor. For a cost of 20,000 + and 11 for the motherboard, the goods are more than worthy! He copes with his tasks with a bang. Regarding its temperatures. Very interesting indicators of aida64, the temperature constantly jumps in idle time from 37 to 55, in CPU-Z load the temperature reaches 70 degrees. I bought the tower…

Cons

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

I now have a TR1920 for the needs of a little more budgetary 3800x. Collection is poor. The box is a plastic blister. I'm sorry, but condoms pack even better. It seems to me that when the load falls on it, TURBOBOOST is immediately cut off. I'll turn it off - the cooler with the boost works unevenly. Here. And so, for the game it is redundant, for business (compared to TR) it is not enough . An average intermediate option between playing and running virtual machines.

Pros
  • Heavy. Poor delivery. Got the OEM version. received a plastic box and a processor. Foreigners have seen a sticker still. WHERE DO YOU SHARE THE STICKER? Heats up quickly. 16 threads out of the box. You don't have to cut anything. I put it in, smeared it with thermal paste, screwed the radiator and bag on top. Elementary installation.
Cons
  • Krch sticker (if it should be in the kit) was missing!
