It's a great CPU, being AM5 allows for many cooling options, and a TDP of 65W means you can get away with a small cooler.


Great little server CPU. Not costs only a tiny bit more than a 9600x but includes some nice enterprise-level features like transparent memory encryption. Makes for a great home lab CPU.

Product received in OEM packaging as advertised. Easy to assemble and worked great. Price was reasonable compared to other sellers. Their customer service response was great and ready to resolve any issues.

I put this CPU into an ASUS PRO WS W790E-SAGE (which replaced my ASUS AMD AM4 PRO WS X570-ACE ATX) workstation motherboard and it is blazing fast already with 16 cores, at the bottom-of-the-line: I can't imagine what the W7-3445 (20 cores), W7-3455 (24 cores), W7-3465 (28 cores), W9-3475 (36 cores) or W9-3495 (56 cores) can do. You need a 3 thousand series (ie Wx-3xxx) Xeon CPU to take advantage of many thing this motherboard offers, e.g. the three M.2 slots for example, and other things that the Asus Pro W790E-SAGE motherboard offers. This CPU fills that bill, allowing the buyer to take full advantage of the Asus W790E motherboard features.

Same as the 9950X3D, but better binned and comes with Enterprise features not found on the desktop counterpart.


Works as advertised/expected

superfast, nice versatility

Advanced and very fast CPU







Tested 3 CPUs from the Epyc 4004 family all have been unlocked, works in the Asrock X870E Taichi Lite I'm using with BIOS 3.40, runs up better than the Ryzen 9 7900X I tested right after the 4464P.
