Review: amazing - The product meets all my needs. I recommend it to everyone.
Review: Received CPU with a cutout in the PCB. - I received a CPU with a triangular cutout in the PCB, yes very strange, I was very lucky to see it before installing it on my motherboard, it would have destroyed the whole PC. I dont have the option to upload pictures. I send it back and received a new one, it's working fine and a it's a very good CPU. Thanks

Il 9950X3D è un mostro a due teste, capace di eccellere dove nessun altro processore riesce a trovare l'equilibrio: Grazie alla 3D V-Cache di nuova generazione, questo processore distrugge ogni collo di bottiglia (ideale per il gaming). La quantità massiccia di memoria L3 integrata direttamente sopra i core permette alla tua Sapphire RX 9070 di sprigionare ogni singolo frame possibile, garantendo una fluidità che rasenta la perfezione, specialmente nei titoli open-world e simulativi più pesanti. Grazie ai 16 core e 32 thread basati sull'architettura Zen 5, il 9950X3D non teme nulla; Che tu stia renderizzando un video in 4K, compilando codice complesso o gestendo macchine virtuali, la velocità di esecuzione è veramente veloce, non devi più scegliere tra una CPU da gioco e una da lavoro, dovete provare direttamente questo processore. Scegliere AMD oggi significa affidarsi a una piattaforma (AM5) che rispetta l'utente. L'efficienza energetica di questo chip è un miracolo ingegneristico: prestazioni da record con consumi e temperature gestibili, specialmente sotto il tuo Nautilus 360 come dissipatore. Inoltre c'è qualcosa di unico nell'accendere un PC sapendo di avere sotto il cofano un chip potente e prestante per il mercato consumer. La stabilità operativa e la reattività del sistema sono percepibili fin dal primo istante. Il 9950X3D non è solo un componente, è la garanzia che qualsiasi sfida software dei prossimi 5-7 anni verrà vinta senza sforzo. Il mio verdetto finale è: sicuramente non accetta compromessi e vuole il meglio che la tecnologia umana possa offrire oggi. La sua capacità unica di essere contemporaneamente il miglior processore da gaming e una workstation di altissimo livello, queste sono state le due scelte che ho valutato durante il mio acquisto.
