  • CPU Speed

    The speed at which the processor operates in everyday use.

    During the execution of demanding applications (e.g. games), the frequency may automatically increase up to the Maximum Processor Frequency.

  • Cores

    The natural individual processing units that the processor has. The more cores a processor has, the more efficient it is in running multiple applications simultaneously. For simple use, 4 cores are sufficient, while for gaming and video processing, at least 6 are recommended.

  • Socket

    The processor socket type.

    The motherboard we choose should have the same socket in order for the processor to "fit in".

  • Maximum CPU Speed

    The maximum processor frequency is the frequency that the processor can reach when executing demanding applications that use one core. Generally, when running demanding applications (e.g. games), the frequency can automatically increase up to the Maximum Processor Frequency depending on the number of cores in use. (the fewer cores are active, the closer they can operate to the maximum frequency)

  • Unlocked

    Ability to change the processor clock settings to achieve higher operating frequency (overclocking).

  • Cache Memory

    Cache is a very fast memory that acts as an intermediary between the processor and RAM. It stores data that is frequently useful to the processor for faster access.

    There are no words to describe the performance of the processor.
    Together with the MSI MEG x399 MOBO, Watercool Heatkiller IV TR4-PRO CPU block, and XSPC loop, the 16 cores work continuously at 4.2GHz in rendering tasks. Additionally, when selecting PBO for mixed use (with minor modifications only), it can achieve the same performance without consuming 350-400W TDP...

    I am so satisfied that I am building a second rig!

    Those who choose it... it is better to forget about air cooling solutions and choose QVL memory with priority on timing and tight latencies, for example 14-14-14-34 or 16-16-16-36.

    The best option for Heavy Duty Workloads.
    Excellent performance in Video Editing and graphic applications in general.

    You will enjoy working with it.
    It never gets tired and has perfectly reasonable power consumption at an average of 200w.

    Make sure to have a good motherboard that will be combined with it and, of course, in my opinion, use liquid cooling.
    Run the bios updates because it has significant improvement in memory and timings.
    Always use 3200Mhz or even 3600Mhz memory.
