About this product

The AMD Ryzen 9 9950X is built for serious computing, whether you're rendering complex projects, running demanding workloads, or pushing your gaming rig to its limits. With 16 cores and 32 threads powered by the advanced Zen 5 architecture, this processor handles multi-threaded tasks with ease, whilst boost speeds of up to 5.7GHz from a 4.3GHz base clock give you the raw speed needed for single-threaded performance. It fits AM5 socket motherboards and supports DDR5 memory, so you're working with the latest platform technology.

This chip is unlocked for overclocking, giving you the freedom to push performance further if you've got the cooling to match its 170W TDP. You'll find 16MB of L2 cache and a generous 64MB of L3 cache to keep data flowing smoothly, and it's compatible with a wide range of chipsets including X870E, X870, B850, X670E, X670, B650E, B650 and A620. Note that no cooler is included, so you'll need to pair it with a capable cooling solution. Backed by a 3 year manufacturer's guarantee, the Ryzen 9 9950X delivers the horsepower needed for professional workloads and high-end gaming alike.
