AMD Ryzen 9 5900XT 3.3 GHz 16-Core AM4 Processor

Power up your computing experience with the AMD Ryzen 9 5900XT 3.3 GHz 16-Core AM4 Processor, which features 16 cores and 32 threads to help quickly load and multitask demanding applications.

Designed for socket AM4 motherboards using the powerful Zen 3 architecture, the 7nm 5th generation Ryzen processor offers significantly improved performance compared to its predecessor. With a base clock speed of 3.3 GHz and a max boost clock speed of 4.8 GHz in addition to 64MB of L3 Cache, the Ryzen 9 5900XT is built to deliver the power needed to smoothly handle tasks ranging from content creation to immersive gaming experiences. You can boost performance further by overclocking this unlocked processor. Other features include support for PCIe Gen 4 technology and 3200 MHz DDR4 RAM with compatible motherboards.

This processor has a 105W TDP (Thermal Design Power) and does not include a cooling solution. Please note that it does not have an integrated GPU, so a dedicated graphics card is required.

Precision Boost 2
AMD Ryzen processors monitor the system's energy consumption, temperatures, and other factors to automatically raise clock speeds, allowing applications to perform faster.
Precision Boost Overdrive
Precision Boost Overdrive technology takes advantage of your compatible motherboard's design to boost clock speeds higher and for longer periods of time. It also allows you overclock the processor at the touch of a button.
AMD StoreMI Technology
AMD StoreMI technology helps to improve load times and overall system performance by combining solid-state drives and mechanical hard drives into a single hybrid storage drive. Frequently used files and programs are cached onto the fast SSD while other files are stored on the high-capacity HDD.
AMD Ryzen VR Ready Premium
Ryzen VR Ready Premium processors are designed to meet or exceed the recommended specifications from the top HMD manufacturers, including Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, and Windows Mixed Reality for smooth performance.
AMD Ryzen Master Utility
Personalized Performance
The AMD Ryzen Master Utility provides you with multiple custom profiles to store CPU, GPU, and DDR4 memory configurations. Use it to configure performance parameters for the active cores and adjust memory times. You can also optimize general performance or fine tune your favorite applications.
System Monitoring
Monitor your system in real-time using the AMD Ryzen Master Utility, which features a histogram of per-core clock rates and temperature, including average and peak readings.

MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI AM4 ATX Motherboard

Set the foundation of your next custom gaming-focused PC with the MAG B550 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI AM4 ATX Motherboard from MSI. It's ideal for the gaming enthusiast who wishes to have complete control over their build without breaking the bank.

Sporting the AMD AM4 socket and B550 chipset, you can easily use a wide range of Ryzen 5000, 4000, and 3000 Series processors. Four DDR4 RAM slots allow you to install up to 128GB of RAM with overclocking speeds up to 5100 MHz for greater multitasking, gaming, and render performance. Two M.2 SSD interfaces and six SATA ports allow you to amass multiple storage devices for your games, media, and more. Utilize graphics and utility cards with a series of expansion ports including one PCIe 4.0 x16, one PCIe 3.0 x16 (in x4 mode), and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots. Between internal headers and back panel ports, you get access to multiple USB 2.0, 3.2 Gen 1, and 3.2 Gen 2 ports, allowing you to support a breadth of peripherals from keyboards to audio interfaces. Bluetooth 5.3 technology is also available giving you a true cable-free experience for your peripherals. Connect to your network wired or wirelessly with 2.5 Gigabit LAN or Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) technology.

Performance and Protection
MSI designed the MAG B550 with a mindfulness, starting with a six-layered 2oz thickened copper printed circuit board which increases conductivity and improves heat dissipation. A 10+2+1 Duet Rail CPU power system utilizes phasing technology, enabling core boost capabilities that empower the processor for overclocking, while reducing electrical loads. Load-line calibration and overvoltage protection stabilize CPU voltage and protect critical components from short-circuiting under heavy operational loads. ESD protection provides additional grounding layers around the mounting holes, preventing potential static discharge from damaging the motherboard. Additionally, the PCIe slot features steel-armor covering, preventing the weight of heavy graphics cards from affecting the motherboard by heavily reinforcing soldered connections.
Performance Boosting Technology
Lightning Gen 4 works with the two M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD slots to provide you with enhanced data transfer speeds up to 64 Gb/s, improving loading times and general operating system performance. Audio Boost also provides studio-grade sound for immersive gaming experiences. Game Boost is a quick one-second enhancement that allows your system to enable overclocking with just the press of a button. HDMI and DisplayPort outputs allow up to 4K resolution depending on the CPU installed.
Thermal Solutions
MSI provides multiple thermal solutions to keep your motherboard and components cool as you game. Pump fan support allows you to attach various water-cooling systems while also reducing radiator noise. Extended heatsinks and cooler pads provide better heat transference through the board, reducing temperature throughout the system. The M.2 Shield Frozr is a specialized heatsink designed for M.2 PCIe NVMe solid-state drives, preventing damage caused by overheating. A 7W/mk thermal pad provides better heat transfer, adding another layer of elemental protection.
MSI Dragon Center
Adjust operation parameters and monitor performance with the MSI Dragon Center software. This program allows you to fine-tune various aspects of your build, streamlining fan control and making custom changes simple and easy. With the LAN Manager, you can prioritize your games over other applications, adjust bandwidth properties, and run multiple tests to ensure optimized gaming performance. Dragon Center also enables you to change lighting settings for compatible RGB-enabled components such as fans and peripherals like mice and keyboards.

Upgrade to Ryzen 7

I bought this to upgrade an older Ryzen 7 on an Asus Prime X570-P system board. At first it would not work at all. I had to put back in the old processor and download an upgrade to the Bios. After upgrading the Bios the new processor worked great with an improvement in system speed.

Great Chip!

Last call for AM4! I built my AM4 machine in early 2021 and remember the 16 core chip at the time was going for 1200 bucks during the supply chain issue era. For 300 bucks 5 years later this is a great option to keep your system going for another 5 years. I took a 70gig 4K movie and using hand break turned it into a 8.5 gig file in under 3 hours my old 6 core would take 12. Buy now before they no longer make them! Also a great option given the prices of RAM for DDR5 right now.
