AMD Ryzen 9 5950X Review

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X is a CPU made by AMD the company that is know for making designing and developing computer processors and graphic technologies. AMD has made many different CPUs, and today I have tested out the AMD Ryzen 95950X CPU.

This CPU is made for AM4 sockets only and made to be quite fast, it has 16 cores, it’s base clock is 3.4GHz, and it costed me $499.00. As I tested it out on my home PC it was pretty fast, my computer worked a lot quicker and smoother then my old CPU. But would recommend on getting a mother with a AM5 socket in order get even faster CPU. If all you need is a AMD Ryzen 95950X CPU then the link is below the text and so is the specs and website.

AMD Ryzen 9 3950X Review

The AMD Ryzen 9 3950X is by far one of the best deals I have gotten for a fast CPU that is fast and will not let any occasion down. In the time that I’ve had this CPU, I have had absolutely no problems with it and it runs almost anything that you can put your mind to, which is probably why it got such a good score on Passmark, with a score of 39010, and a Single Thread Rating of 2710. 

This CPU is also priced very well, at $579.99. The AMD Ryzen 9 3950X has 16 cores and 32 threads, which allows this CPU to do much more than your average PC. On Newegg, this CPU got a whole 5 out of 5 stars, coming from 187 different ratings.

This CPU also takes an AM4 socket. This socket is decent but it is even better when the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X is connected to it, giving the CPU a base speed of 3.5GHZ and a max speed of 4.7GHZ. One thing I do recommend though, is a newer type of RAM to give it an even better performance.

i9-11900K Review

The Intel i9-11900K is the best CPU I have ever bought. When I bought it I wasn’t thinking if it would work on my cheap Motherboard so I was hoping it would. When it arrived I wasn’t even thinking that it would not work so I put it into the CPU socket and when I started up my PC it worked. The CPU was working better than any CPU I had ever bought. The CPU benchmark score is 25537 which is an ok score but what makes this CPU so good is its Single Thread Rating. Its Single Thread Rating is 3531 which is really good considering the CPU benchmark score.

Most might consider the price to be way too high with it being priced at $349.94 but I think that it was worth every penny. I also think that it is set at the perfect price I feel like if it was priced higher I would not have bought it.

My Review of the Intel Core i7-2700KF

 

My Review on the Intriguing Intel Core i7-2700KF

I am here to share my opinions and more on my research of the Intel Core 17-2700KF CPU. It was at moderately cheap price, and it was good but nothing impressive upon using it. Though it is far from a terrible CPU. I’ll show a picture of the following CPU here:

Despite it not being impressive it was certainly a good CPU, for those who have not tried anything before. Let’s start to go on about the aspects of the CPU itself. It’s Clockspeed (3.6 GHz) was rather fine, not extremely fast that it was amazing but quite fast enough to enjoy the CPU without too much issue. The cache’s are as follows, L1: 1024 KB, L2: 12.0 MB, L3: 25 MB. All ok enough, all work just fine. Before I go on, here is another image:

The Socket Type for this CPU is: FCLGA1700. Not much to say there, quite decent in number. The CPU has 12 Cores and 20 Threads, not too shabby. Not an issue at all upon usage. A rating I found, from the website PassMark (Which can be found by clicking the first image in this blog post) is as follows: 34523. Not a bad rating, I say at least. If you were wanting to purchase this CPU the price would range from $200-$420. The second image in the blog post has a link in where you can purchase it, the price there is $424.95. With that said, this brings this my review on the Intel Core i7 2700KF to an end. As this was all that I found in my research. Hopefully in some way, this information was beneficial to you. Good day.

i7-12700KF Review

The Intel i7-12700KF is the best CPU that I have ever purchased and I’m more than happy to share my review of it with all of you. In the time that I have owned this CPU, I have not had any problems with it. It runs all of my games extremely well, and scored very high on PassMark, with a score of 34517, and a  single thread rating of 4045.Large, zoomable image of Intel Core i7-12700KF. 2 of 11

This CPU is also priced very well, at $276.81. The i7-12700KF has 12 cores and 20 threads, which allows this CPU to do multiple tasks at the same time, and maintain a fast speed.  On Amazon, this CPU reached a rating of 4.8 stars out of 5, from 905 different ratings.

Not only does this CPU have 12 cores and 20 threads, but it also takes Intel’s newest socket, the LGA 1700. This socket is extremely fast, which allows the CPU to have a base speed of 3.6 GHz, and a turbo speed of 5.0 GHz. This CPU works exceptionally well with all operating systems, especially Windows 10 and Windows 11. I recommend using a new version of RAM with this CPU, which gives even better performance.

In Conclusion, I would recommend this CPU to anyone in the market for a new CPU, but that also do not want to break the bank. This CPU is very powerful and has all of the specs to back it up. This CPU blew past all of my expectations for it, and I am more than satisfied with my purchase.

Summer Plans

This summer I am planning on visiting the Maldives to scuba dive.  “Although home to just over half a million people the Maldives has its own unique culture and traditions. While heavily influenced by various cultures around the rim of the Indian Ocean, the Maldivian culture, craft and traditions have been shaped by the island environment and the seas that surround us.” (Maldives)

My Summer Vacation

 

For me personally, I’m not the person who likes to travel. If I had the choice, I’d stay home all I could. So I literally know, no vacations places. But, of course I have to choose something. So I suppose I would check out New York for a few days, merely for the experience. I know it sucks to live there, but I just would like to go there to understand it I suppose.

 

There’s no proper website for this image, just takes you to google maps.

 

 

But ya, I would simply go there for a few days to understand the place and see the great spots of New York. I would never live there, but I’d go there to explore. It’s a huge place, so there’s tons to see. Haha, it really isn’t that great to me, but I gotta write something I suppose. I’m sure it’d be fun to go with someone too.

 

No link again, same thing as the last image, sorry.

That would be it for my blog. I’d say it’s rather sad, and boring. But hey an assignment’s a assignment. Thanks for reading though. Even if it wasn’t much.
