    Its price has fluctuated a bit lately, but overall it’s in the sweet spot just before the Zen 6 series arrives. Initially, in 2024, it was €200 more expensive. It may drop a little further when Zen 6 launches in early 2027. But it could also get more expensive because all the other components (RAM, SSDs, GPUs) have been getting pricier lately.
    Be careful with the motherboard pins when installing it, and give it a few minutes to sync with the RAM. The BIOS detected it as a 12-core CPU. It’s a future-proof all-round CPU. In games, it consumes 20–30W more because of its 2 core dies and delivers fewer fps than X3D models. For gaming only, look at X3D models.

    Once the 9900X was installed on a B850 Asus Strix motherboard with DDR5-64Gb memory, it was time for measurements and opinions!

    REVIEW- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lhYMspBYFU&t=315s

    With the 9900X, we kept the cores/threads as high as possible for productivity reasons and simply lost about 10% in gaming performance compared to the X3D. Otherwise, it works perfectly—and the purchase was worth it!

    This particular processor is paired with the 5070 and in no game or task does it have any issues. In 4K gaming in titles from 2 years ago, I get a steady 60+ fps. But obviously, this processor is not made just for gaming. It's for much more. I haven't managed to use it above 40%-45% except in some benchmarks

    This review is about the packaging: Tray

    the processor has extreme performance for the price. The only negative and at the same time the reason I give 4 stars has to do with the shipping, as the processor came loosely wrapped in a piece of pink foam, which is unacceptable.

    It is awesome especially if you mainly want multitasking and multiple programs running at the same time. If you want compatibility with most programs and especially the older ones, choose Intel, you will just consume more power ⚡. It hasn't struggled anywhere or with anything
