Good Cpu Cooler For Gaming

Performance is unquestionable, but I had to buy another cooler for this CPU cz it reaches +80 when gaming on ultra FHD

A powerful gaming CPU that is extremely capable. However, if you're an SFF builder, be prepared for how warm this CPU runs. Nothing that can't be handled with a proper AIO cooler, but if your ITX case only supports air cooling (i.e. Fractal Terra), then selecting an appropriate air cooler and applying curve optimizer may be essential to bring down the standard operating temps to something you can tolerate. Also, I agree with Dongun's review comment about the increased boot times. Bottom line: Highly recommended CPU.

I was looking for a processor for my gaming rig attached to a 4K TV. This processor is very fast, and constantly runs around 5.35 mhz at 60-65 C temps in games. I am using the stock cooler that came with it, and the cooler can easily handle even Cinebench R23. My CPU's max was 88 C while running a 30 minute stability test. Hence saved money by not buying additional air/AIO. I tested games in 1080, 1440, and 4K resolutions, and this CPU pushes my 4080 100% in any game, any details, so absolutely no CPU bottleneck. It is a great gaming CPU for mid to high-end rigs. Don't overthink; just get it and enjoy!

Runs very well and the cpu cooler that comes with it is amazing!

Great CPU but it overheats a lot, definitely need a better cooler.

Great CPU for gaming

Very fast and powerful CPU, esp if you use a good CPU cooler, and Ryzen Master PBO and Curve Optimizer. Bench testing, it scores 30,480 in Cinebench. If you don't know what this is, rest assured, that's an excellent result. All this power comes at a very competitive price as well. Breathed new life into my AM4 computer!

I rebuilt my wife's computer with MB, CPU and Memory all new. Once the CPU installed and cooler in place it was soon time to try it. It booted immediately screen not the best on pixels. A few minor points in BIOS and the next boot up perfect. Can't beat a good price, a good delivery and no damage or flaws from shipping and handling.

Shipping was fast and it was packaged well protected the cpu itself is super fast runs warm so make sure you have a good cooler will definitely purchase items from BH again

This motherboard is very expensive, but it's like buying the top of the line in anything, it costs more. Pros: I love all the USB options. I love the fancy NVMe slots (5)! I love the Wi-fi which is 6E (DLs 7MB/s more now with no upgrade to old N router.) 6 SATA ports is good. My system went from an I7 4770K to an I9 13900K (runs hot but nothing can help that I think). Love the Bluetooth for my wireless headphones. Cons: The only problem I had putting it together was when I inserted the CPU it did not work right; my brother had to re-seat it and re-apply the heat goo and CPU fan (which I was loathe to do myself) but then it worked great! Flashed BIOS before re-seating of CPU trying to fix; good idea to flash with newest anyway. The 5.0 NVMe slot shares bandwidth with the video slot so if I go to a 5.0 device it will cut my video bandwidth in half. Not sure this is the MB's fault. But I hate sharing on MB slots. System now: *Intel I9 13900K (I7 4770K vs. I9 13900k = Passmark 7120 vs. 60065) *MSI MPG Z790 CARBON WIFI *CORSAIR Vengeance 64GB (2 x 32GB) DDR5 5600 (4x more upgrade) *Noctua NH-U12A chromax.black, 120mm Single-Tower CPU Cooler (Now I'd go with the dual towers and 140mm fans for the 13900K) *Cooler Master HAF X case (for drive bays) *Seagate FireCuda 530 M.2 2280 2TB PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe 1.4 3D TLC (boot drive) over the Samsung option for durability stats. *PCIE 1X to 20 Ports SATA PCIe Controller Expansion Card (because LOL) and I have 2 DVD RW BDR drives and a bunch of SATA HDD drives. *NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (old but I just spent a truckload on upgrades) Wishing for 3060 or 3070 in future. *20TB WD HDD *Several older HGST HDDs (love HGST!) *Cooler Master 1000W Gold Silent Pro PSU (old but works) Running Win10 x64 Pro My hat is off to B&H for super-fast delivery and working well with me on other issues.
