Thought this was a pretty great deal on a 5900X. It's used, but it comes with a 2 year warranty, and given that the thing can't even be seen when in use I'm not sure how much more there is to take into account other than "does it work?".

Next lowest price I could find was £333 from Amazon in the Black Friday deals.

    What's the quiescent power on one of these beauties? Would love to have access to that amount of compute but not sure I can afford the electricity to run one!
    mihav's avatar
    all depends onto what you will set this as, you can run this in eco mode 65w if the power is a concern, or using PBO boost this with around 185W, these cpus quite flexible in this terms plus you can undervolt and use curve optimizer lowering the power consumption and temps whilst keeping the most of its performance. ofcourse to use all of the above you will need an x370, b450, b550, x470, x570 with an up to date bios, can't do this on a320 a520 boards unfortunately (edited)

    I was hoping these would drop a bit more but this deal has put paid to that idea :/

    I will wait for the 5950X to drop instead

    Thanks! Just ordered! What's the best value for money motherboard for this CPU?
    woodbino's avatar
    I have an ASRock B550M Pro4 mATX Motherboard for my Ryzen 7 5800x, and I can peak at 5ghz clock, albeit briefly. So very happy with it. Paid £97 for it. Only issue is that it is now discontinued.

    There's a Gigabyte microatx from ebuyer for £79 currently. I think they'll be just fine.

    Is it me or why would you buy this instead of NEW 5 7600x for exactly same price and more performance?
    LaurenceGough's avatar
    Depends on what motherboard and RAM you have already.

    To think I paid £710 quid for mine back in April 2021 - good price for a decent bit of kit
    nicholson101's avatar
    I feel your pain although mine came bundled with a mobo which has sat in a drawer as I bought a better one!

    Are you by any chance someone who hasn't kept up with the PC market in the last 5 years?

    You know AMD beat Intel for efficiency for quite a few years right? Only just similar now. (edited)

    Just sold my 3800x to them and got a voucher for 112 to buy this. Spot on
    Kinio's avatar
    I've sold my 3800x on Facebook marketplace for £200 last week, and there was huge interest in it. It sold in less than 1 day. I dont think you've got good deal from cex

    14 Core I5 13500 will make the price of these plummet
    Ian_Kemp's avatar
    No, because it's a 20-thread CPU while this is 24.
  10. M1sterDeeds's avatar
    I'm using a dual core. Oh my gawd at this
  11. sniperpenguin's avatar
    Tough call. This is now effectively a niche upgrade chip for AM4 Users or somebody that wants to build a budget production rig. However it will become tough to find for exactly that reason.
  12. luminous's avatar
    I bought this last week at this price from them it`s a nice boost for my production work.
  13. Ulti's avatar
    Ordered too thanks! Usually buy Intel ones without issue as they're pinless but AMD ones are a bit scary given what I've read here so fingers crossed.
  14. ThisIsWhyImBroke's avatar
    I can't believe you guys cleared the cex stock.

    Amazing price
  16. lehaandreev's avatar
    I overclocked 12600kf almost to the level of 5900x In stock. Multi core that is, single core it beats it hands down. But I bought it new a year ago for £248. And this is 1 year later and used, should be cheaper! (edited)
    Premium's avatar
    Zen 3 is almost a year older than 12th gen. It would be outright shocking and a complete failure if the 12600K couldn't even beat it in 1T.
  17. dfunked's avatar
    Got a 5950x from cex last year and that had loads of bent pins. Something as fragile as this is a bit risky to buy used.
  18. slybunda's avatar
    packaging is real bad. they throw away the plastic sleeve the cpu is supposed to be kept in. daft.
  19. Dacra's avatar
    Hmm, theyll give me 123 trade in for my 5600x.. Dont really need it, but tempting.
  20. jobi59uk's avatar
    Thanks op, bought and hoping it arrives in good condition. Upgrading from a 3900x 🏾 (edited)
  21. Korben_Dallas's avatar
    I bought a CPU from them before and via post it had no case, so had bent pins. I fixed it but still annoying.

    I got a 5900X from them last year but collected in-store. TAKE A CASE WITH YOU, THEY DON'T HAVE ANY.
  22. joedb's avatar
    There's a seller on eBay selling the 5800x3d new for £300 if anyone is interested. They have been coming back in stock in batches of 3 every so often.
    Quiz's avatar
    Any chance I could get a link to that sellers storefront please, even if they don't have any right now

    Gutted that I missed this.
  24. Ulti's avatar
    I actually received this on Saturday after ordering on Thursday. Super speedy delivery. It was actually well packed in an actual CPU box, in bubble wrap then in an appropriately sized box.

    CPU is in good condition with almost no thermal paste and no bent pins.

    Getting WHEA errors when trying to stress test though unfortunately but think that's my motherboard more as running stress tests with my RAM without XMP profiles on is fine. (edited)
