Rating on AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (AM4, 3.40 GHz, 16 -Core).

A great out-of-the-box CPU. 16 Cores 32 Threads.

I was lucky to get the CPU - thanks Digitec. It is one of the most powerful CPUs available. It required a new motherboard, 3-radiator AIO cooler and some clever work on the BIOS before moving from an Intel build to AMD build.
Be prepared for this build and read up on the temperature management.
Getting 25,000 + on Cinebench multi core scores without any adjustments.

+ Powerful CPU

+ Reliable

+ AM4

- Runs hotter than Intel

- May need a more powerful cooling solution

- Some new motherboards need BIOS updates before it can operate
