Overview

AMD supplies this Dual Edition Ryzen 9 chip for the current desktop socket, with sixteen cores and a giant cache. The listing is brief and gives no description beyond the name.

Enthusiasts building a top-tier rig get a deep cache pool and a high clock figure. A strong cooler and a compatible board are needed, and neither is described in the listing. The warranty field gives a number without a unit.

Who it's for

An enthusiast assembling a flagship PC for gaming and heavy rendering. The power rating needs good cooling. Most buyers will do well with a smaller chip and put the money into the graphics card.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Very large cache
  • High clock figure
Cons
  • Cooler not described
  • High power rating
  • Thread count shown oddly
  • Warranty unit not stated

Performance notes

Stacked cache memory holds frequently used data near the cores, which cuts memory waits in games. The high power rating means the processor needs a strong cooler to hold its clock speeds. Real results depend on the graphics card and memory.
