Review: Ryzen 9 7900X CPU - Excellent CPU for literally everything! - Been waiting to build my new rig for quite some time and this was the missing piece. New build: Corsair Icue 7000X Full Tower RGB Ryzen 9 7900X CPU 32GB DDR5 5600 Corsair Dominator RAM 1 TB Crucial M.2 Gen 4 XFX Merc 319 Radeon 6950XT 16GB Graphics Card Corsair 1000w PSU Gigabyte X670 Elite AX AM5 Motherboard Corsair iCUE H150i Elite LCD XT Liquid CPU Cooler (360 AIO mounted to top as Exhaust 6 Corsair ML140's Fans (10 total fans including those with the case/aio with 6 as intake and 4 for exhaust). Lian Li Strimer V2 RGB Cables for the GPU and Motherboard (they look very nice and controllable via the L Connect 3 software) As I needed additional powered USB headers I also added a Corsair Internal 4-Port USB 2.0 Hub - 4X 9-Pin USB 2.0 Ports for the Commander Core XT and Lian Li Controllers to function. Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Thermal Paste (removed the stock paste with AIO using TG cleaner wipes as well for better contact). ThermalRight AMD5 CPU Shield - This allows the AIO or Waterblock (if doing a custom loop) to make WAY better contact with the CPU HS. It can be a little nerve wracking as your removing the cpu mount and installing this one but its worth it. As the AM5 CPU has no pins (the mobo now has the pins), its imperative you are gentle on the placement. Best way I found to install this shield was to place the CPU into the socket, then remove the cpu holder so this way you can't damage the cpu or pins as they are socketed. Installing the shield from that point is easy, just don't overtighten it. Theres a bunch of youtube videos on this process. Definitely recommend reviewing them before attempting this step. I upgraded from my old Ryzen 5 2600X system with a GTX 960 SSC 4GB card and a 512gb M.2 Gen 2 drive. Needless to say this was quite the upgrade from my old system. Cinebench scores on my 2600X even with a mild overclock was only around 7200. After getting everything configured/setup and Windows 11 Pro installed with all updates and enabling EXPO1 (RAM OC) and enabling SAM in the BIOS I started my benchmarking. Cinebench score with just EXPO1 enabled baseline was 28745. What a jump! CPU temp on the multi-core threading with the 360 AIO only went as high as 82c (AMD rates these to run at 95c as normal operating temp so it was well below even that). Haven't done any OC'ing other than enabling EXPO1 yet since I really don't need to as the CPU and GPU run everything maxed out. Tested on a few games on max/ultra settings and below are what I got FPS wise: The Division 2 (All settings maxed and on DX12) - Avg 125fps on 3440 x 1440 165hz resolution Aliens: Fireteam Elite - Avg 160fps on 3440 x 1440 165hz resolution Borderlands 2 (older game I know but love to play it with max settings) - Avg 476fps on 3440 x 1440 165hz resolution Forza Horizon 5 - Ultra Settings (max) including Ray Tracing - Avg 155fps on 3440 x 1440 165hz resolution Aliens: Colonial Marines (older game) - Avg 190FPS on 3440 x 1440 165hz resolution Warframe - Avg 155fps on 3440 x 1440 165hz resolution Pairing this CPU and GPU together worked great and the CPU itself is a beast. It does get hot when it turbo's up into the 5ghz range which is why you need a really good cooler (either AIO or custom loop) to keep the temps in check. If you do that, this CPU will be everything you need and then some. One thing I always tell people is to take your time, plan out your PC parts you want for what you want the system to do (video editing, gaming, streaming, etc). Don't be afraid to look around for good deals. I scored the AIO Cooler off Newegg for a much cheaper price than desertcart had it and it works beautifully and the LCD screen is just a nice "geek" factor to put JPG's or GIF's there. Once you have everything, take your time when building it. You may run into an issue here or there which is normal. First boot on AM5 systems is sometimes slow (Memory has to train) and you may see it cycle on/off for up to 1 minute. Mine did this and on the 4th power cycle it posted and I could get into the BIOS and everything showed up correctly. Good luck enthusiasts and hope this review helped with anyone looking at this CPU for their system! Its worth it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I want to update , i like to play games and work in Photoshop. Ideal varient for me ?**
A: yes. look up Hardware Unboxed or maybe Linus Tech Tips for Photoshop benchmarks. you COULD get away with a 7700/7700X, but this is a better cost per core count as we speak on Prime Day

**Q: Suitable only for x670 series motherboards ?**
A: Not sure why people insist on perpetuating the myth that there’s anything wrong with using this with B650 boards. I have this in a ROG Strix B650E-F and not only is running well, but it’s benchmarking well above average compared to others with the same CPU as are my other components. Read up on features to decide what board is best for you - don’t think you need the most expensive board just because a newer version exists. What you need is the board with the features you specifically want. Tbh, X670 would have been a waste of my money and I’m glad I went with the board I did

**Q: Can i use a noctua air cooler like the u12a or c14s? im concerned about the high tdp.**
A: Yes! Although I only have a very light overclock with the NH-D15 as the cooler and a case with very good airflow. I am considering switching hardline water cooled, but most every application or game I've run, the cpu doesn't get past 80° C.

**Q: Does the motherboard for past generations of AMD fit this processor?**
A: No, unfortunately not. Requires the x670 motherboards for now although some others are coming. Also, DDR5 ram required.

*by M***Z on February 27, 2026*

Fantastic Amd cpu purchased on November 21 2023 and this thing is still thriveing like brand new,I did lowered it to 4.6 with temps in between the 52 or 60 sins I am not gameing nor doing Photoshop or 3Ds on my PC, but, once I start again I will give it the more diserved juice it needs,wich it will perform its best as it had, and will do again.
