- A great upgrade from my 3900X - Very fast clock speed and big cache - Runs cool, idles at around 40 C and runs at 70 C at full load

- Good performance - Relatively low cost

Excellent performance. I have had zero issues. It has lots of single and multi-core power and it will likely chew up and spit out anything you throw at it. I upgraded from the first gen 16 core threadripper that was struggling under DX12 ray tracing, and it was a huge upgrade for me.

Windows 24H2 has a bug that can gimp the CPU Performance. High Performance power plan in Windows R23 score 39000. Ultimate Power Plan 40500. Has no issues maxing out a 7800XT You need to use CMD as admin to unlock the Hidden Ultimate Performance Power Plan. Google it faster at multicore than my 7970X3D and just as fast at lower resolution gaming.

- Powerful - Fast - Easy install

Faster than 10900k Cheaper than 10900k Cheaper motherboard options More motherboard support Comes with cooler in box

Coming from 11900k I definitely noticed the difference the 14900k is a monster

It's a CPU and works like it should. As always, Newegg delivers fast and are reliable.

Faster game play in intense gaming sessions than the [email protected]. Still running the 285K at stock settings.

I finally upgraded from a first Gen Ryzen to a Fifth Gen Ryzen, and the results are satisfying. Got this when there was a promo code for 15$ off, worth every buck. Would buy this rather than spend 20 more dollars for the X version. Ryzen 5 1600 to a Ryzen 5 1600, still same cores and threads but nearly a huge spike in peformance due to the zen 3 architecture.

Reall good CPU IPC gains are major over the previous gen. My CPU runs at 4.7GHz on all cores at 1.31v

Runs everything on roblox Minecraft at max graphics on hypixel. A dream even with a lot of people in skyblock Repo is fantastic Jurassic world evolution at medium is good u notice a tiny bit of lag but it's not horribly noticeable anything higher is runnable but you'll notice it

Good performance and thermals

Very good upgrade from Ryzen 5 3600

- Boost clock to over 5Ghz if you have good cooling - Bought when it was on sale - Stock cooler included

Super fast and reasonably priced on sale.

So far so good. Easy to install and fired right up. Been running fast and clean for a week with no complaints from employee using pc. All their processing and drafting has gone well.
