    The best all around CPU

    The 5960x is a beast CPU, it’s quick and nimble, and so versatile for practically any computing need. No it’s not a super computer chip but for home PC’s you can call it that. No other chip I know of can be so stable at extreme overclocking or so stable and high performing at normal operating conditions. Gaming is not a problem, design software runs great, when it comes to video and audio editing you won’t lack in the performance category. I’ve not have any problems with the 5960x and wonder if another CPU can entice me to upgrade, so far after several years no CPU has.

    Great upgrade from a 5820k

    First the pros if you have an x99 Intel platform and lower end CPU like 5820k 6 core CPU. just slotting in the 8 core 5960x with its 40 PCIe lanes and two extra cores is a no-brainer. If you find it at $300 to $350 it is defiantly worth the swap to keep the entire platform without tossing everything else out. fairly good overclocker. IHS is soldered for lower temps. Cons Price for new 5960X is crazy anywhere from $800 to $1000. if you don't already have X99 platform go with new one.

  • It used to be king. It still is a great processor. Thank goodness for competition!

    I upgraded my 5820K to the 5960X and am happy that I did. My video rendering and editing goes much faster. The 5960X was the king of the hill for about a year and a half till newer technology, aka more cores, started to get into the market place. AMD with Ryzen and Thread Ripper has brought the prices down on most CPU's as AMD is now challenging Intel which is a very good thing. I own both the Ryzen 1800X and the 5960X CPU's and I use both machines. The 5960 X is still my choice for video editing and rendering as I was able to overclock it to 4.6 Ghz and get the memory to overclock. With the Ryzen, even after several months and Bios updates and firmware updates, still cannot overclock past 4.1 Ghz. So the Intel 5960X gets the nod most of the time while the rest of the family gets to use ...

  • The best I could get!

    This CPU was the best possible choice for my Motherboard. Years ago, it was nearly $1000 and now I’m getting it for less than half the cost. Installation is simple, although you need thermal paste and an understanding of CPU installation - which you can get on YouTube. The 8-core 5960x currently runs any available game and when paired with aN SSD, GTX 1070Ti or 1080Ti, provides flawless 4K gaming experiences.

  • Intel HEDT 8-core Performer

    This is very nice CPU. It is a high-end processor for intensive tasks with 8 cores. It is also a good CPU for a multiple GPU gaming rig or for someone who needs fast single core or multi core functionality, such as video editing. Fast performance with many cores makes this one of the premier CPUs even though it is a few generations old. This means it maximizes it’s value over others available. Unless you really 10 or more cores, this is a great CPU.
