The flagship of AMD and a very powerful processor mainly for work, with very good efficiency (and a little power for its performance, that is).
What those who buy it should pay attention to are the temperatures and the RAM.
Temperatures:
It is designed to run at 95C constantly and to boost until it reaches that point. Once it reaches that point, it stays there as long as there is load. This means that the better the cooling someone has, the better the processor will perform, but it also means a lot of noise from fans and many people who worry when they see the CPU constantly in the red. Finally, it also means that whoever pays for this CPU and doesn't invest in good cooling will have lower results than they could have.
RAM:
Up to 6000 speed, with ideal speeds being 6000c30. At higher speeds, it loses performance due to becoming de-synced from the infinity fabric.
Been using this monster of a cpu for almost a month now, truly phenomenal, it’s paramount that you update your motherboard to the latest bios to avoid instability. Keep in mind that this cpu will always try to “boost” to 95c, this is normal! Just make sure to pair this cpu with a good cooler, I paired it with a noctua nhd15 and my idles are 45c and around 80c while gaming.
Finally, AMD has given us an INTEL performance platform.
Amazing response even compared to the 5900X I had before.
The difference in the platform is obvious.
Exceptional in all areas.
Just make sure the motherboard has the latest Bios version.
When combined with proper memory, it truly is a professional tool for audio/image/video editing.
Personally, I have it with a 125w profile and it operates at 95% performance with excellent temperatures along with the ARCTIC FREEZER II 420mm.
It is a very good and powerful processor, but unfortunately its erratic behavior deprives it of performance.
Under steady loads, the processor can handle up to -15 CO, but its attempt to boost to 5.7ghz consumes it and puts it in instability, resulting in not being able to get the maximum benefits of undervolting.
Start from -15 and find where you get black screens, I believe around -13/-12 you will succeed.
Soc 1.1 with 5600mhz RAM seems stable, if further adjustments are needed, I will rewrite.
Very powerful, doesn't lag anywhere, personally I need it for work (software developer) and combined with 32gb DDR5 memory, the builds or test suites I run go smoothly. The only issue is that I haven't been able to make it reach its maximum clock speed (5.7 Ghz if I remember correctly) as it reaches its temperature (95 degrees) at around 5.1 Ghz and stays there. This is using a Noctua NH-U12A cooler - maybe with a powerful aio the job can be done but it doesn't bother me much.
Bought from day 1.
Really, for the use I make, it is twice as powerful compared to the previous one (r9 5900x).

Apart from the fact that the CPU has been properly set, from the OC profile of the motherboard, it has been applied and liquid metal has been used.
The difference as a CPU is insane, cinebench R23 in multi gave me 38500pts without liquid metal and settings, with settings and LM 43200pts.
The use I make is generally general.
Gaming/video editing/photoshop and architectural design (autocad/3dmax etc).
Because I have also tried 12900ks and 13900kf, I have not been satisfied with Intel, apart from the power draw that is godly, so (it remembered) it opened Turbo Boost, played for 2-3 minutes and then thermal throttling, and goodbye!!
They don't check these things in benchmarks as well as in long-term use, or Intel is not stable.
The only negative thing about AMD and the settings is the post time.
About 1 minute until it takes the settings and posts.
But in my opinion, a small tradeoff for the beast it produces.
Finally, and very very important, do not make the mistake of getting XMP memory, the CPU does not behave normally, definitely use EXPO, and 6000 clock to show its true potential.
When it first came out, it was a top performer, but AMD gained ground because Intel was behind. Now it's trading blows with the corresponding 13th generation Intel and the price has dropped to reasonable levels since it was over €800.
My issue with this processor is that it doesn't have a clear position, meaning it's not for gaming, it's not HEDT, but it's also not suitable for workstation-type Threadripper or Xeon... it does a little bit of everything but not any one specific task well. (I'm not comparing it 1:1 to Threadripper/Xeon)
If someone wants it for gaming, I don't recommend it. Not in terms of performance compared to Intel, nor in terms of price. I'm not saying it's bad, but it's like buying a Scania R730 V8 for a regular car, yes it will get you from point A to point B but it's overkill for a regular car. It's not an issue specifically with the new graphics cards and there's no chance of bottlenecking them. The issue is that you're paying a lot more for the few extra FPS.
On the other hand, for image/video editing and programming, it's very good. The 16 cores don't lag. In a programming environment, Microsoft Visual Studio for SQL, .NET, Python, PHP with VM Ware Pro for three extra virtual machines is very comfortable.
For image/video editing, it's good but not suitable for large offices. The problem is that it doesn't have enough PCIe lanes for multiple cards (CFX/FLi) and accelerators, as well as NVMe, which are needed for fast processing of large files.
Someone will get this processor if:
- They have extra money and just want the best that AMD can offer
or
- They need it for work.
Having previously owned a Ryzen 9 3950X with 16 cores, this 7950X is at least 50% faster at whatever you do. It really flies!!! Perhaps some may have an issue with its cooling, as it requires good AIO or custom water cooling. Personally, I'm not concerned because I already had a custom EKwb water cooling system.
The 7950X is truly a powerful processor that especially excels in multicore performance, surpassing its competition. This specific chip is aimed at professionals who can make use of its capabilities. It is great for gaming, but it's not worth getting it solely for that purpose. If you want an AMD option, go for something in the 5000 series, or a mid-range 12th generation Intel processor, which are much better value-for-money solutions. As for power consumption, things have gotten out of hand with this generation and 95 degrees Celsius is becoming mainstream...
