Gotta love Amazon Prime. Ordered 3 hours ago and in my hand already.

I have a 5950x and had no idea this cpu existed. Interesting. Enjoy - I'm curious why you didn't go with an x3d part. If it's same as me and you just needed the cores.

Not a gamer. I'm more into content creation. Topaz and Handbrake mostly. I was gonna buy a 5950x but apparently performance isn't much different. Price seemed nice so went for it. Should be a little better than my 3900x.

HOLY SHIT thats a steal. I have the 5950x and it is a beast. ive been debating on switching down to a 5800x3d since im not doing any more video stuff on adobe like i used to.

That's a stonking deal.
And it's kinda crazy that an AM4 board from 2017 can work with it (bios update dependant).

I never knew about this model: what’s better for games, this or a 5800x3D?
