    good processor, but needs to be adjusted manually depending on use

    Compared to my previous CPU, the 3700X, in addition to having twice as many threads, this one takes overclocking into account effectively, because it benefits from a better speed, and therefore a much better performance, for a comparable voltage. Of course, I chose it for multitasking, and in this area, this processor excels.
    The single-core boost is very impressive for 7nm, but I deactivate auto overclocking because the voltage, even for a short time in single-core mode, is too high from the outset, and it's stipulated in the manual that it invalidates the warranty.

    Super Processor RYZEN 9 5950x

    This processor is a beast in gaming, it doesn't go above 55° with good cooling and maybe overclocked. It exceeds the level of expectation I had for this processor I find it incredible. I highly recommend this product. It's very powerful, versatile and high-performance.

    A real treat!

    It's great to have 32 cores in Blender, Unreal Engine etc...
    This CPU is a bit like having a 'badass' friend who you can always count on to solve problems.
    I'm really pleased!

    Expensive but really powerful

    For standard applications (office automation, games, etc.) this processor is largely oversized. I use its high capacities (32 threads) mainly for video processing on CPU and transcoding, and more secondarily for compilation. Without any particular overclocking it can be pushed to 5 GHz in monothread. At 100% occupancy it "caps" at 4.3 GHz (225 W of power consumption), the calculations required are completed quickly. This makes it a power monster, ideal for a low-cost workstation. In short, the performance is good and corresponds to the high price of the CPU.

    As others have pointed out, it gets significantly hotter when used intensively - don't neglect the cooling. I put a Noctua NH-U14S in it which does the job very well. With it, the package does not exceed 80°C in heavy use, but can still get close to 90°C in a stress test.
