YD150XBBAEBOX Ryzen 5 1500X Processor with Wraith Spire Cooler

The Ryzen 5 1500X Processor is very powerful for its price and TDP. Upgrading from my old PC was night and day difference and the 4 Cores 8 threads will assure my PC a longer life span as programs get more advanced and demanding. The only problem I encountered was with the platform in general. I was unable to even use my PC for the first month and a half due to blue screening and bad drivers/ bios versions. To be honest, it was a nightmare, but after replacing all of my parts (other than working ones) finally replacing the SSD and installing windows 10 via USB did the trick and it has appeared to work great ever since. Anyways, here is my simple list of Pros and Cons. PROS: 1. Good Bang for the Buck ($189 here or 169 sometimes on eBay) for 4 solid Cores and 8 threads! 2. Very power efficient compared to the Amd FX cpus with a TDP of 65W 3. I haven't personally tried it yet, but this CPU has a pretty effective overclock. 4. The stock cooler is actually really good. My temps have never reached really hot temps even when gaming. Also, the cooler matches my black/silver themed build quite well surprisingly. CONS (Not really the CPU's fault) 1. The platform has a fairly rough beginning as memory support is sketchy and early versions of Windows 10 can prevent it from working. -Solution: Check your motherboard RAM compatibility and install the latest Windows 10 via USB. Because this issue isn't on the CPU exclusively, I will still confidently give this product a 5 stars!

Did a complete rebuild of home built PC. This AMD Ryzen 5 1500x is awesome. I paired it with the following new components: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1550x 3.5 gHz * Can be OC MOBO: MSI B350M Pro-VH Plus ( bought on Amazon ) RAM: Crucial Vengeance LPX DDR4 * gb 2666 mHz ( bought on Amazon ) * Can be OC PSU: Corsair CX650M Video Card: XFX Radeon R5 220A-2QHR 2 gb Monitor: Samsung S22B310 HDD: WD 1 TB 7200 RPM ( SATA ) DVD: Samsung DVDW - RW ( SATA ) Printer: Samsung 2165W Laser Printer OS: Neptune Linux OS 64 bit version 16.0, KDE Desktop System is running stable, no issues and AMD Ryzen 5 1500x CPU runs very cool with Spire cooler supplied. Definitely an excellent CPU.

It's good value for money, but don't have too high expectations. When buying parts, make sure they are compatible with all your other parts and pay attention to bottlenecks, otherwise you'll be wasting your money.

what can I say! I like AMD, and even if it's not ideal for every application like Intel, Ryzen 1500X was still a huge jump in performance for me. Just used the Ryzen master overclocker utility and used it with the ab350gaming Mobo, meant I could OC this machine literally first thing from stock 3.5Ghz, to 3.9+ghz, stable with my cooling solution. The Ryzen chips run very cool, especially this 1500x. I did NOT use the stock Spire Cooler (I use liquid cooling), but the cooler you get is one of the best in the box coolers I've ever seen. Be careful do NOT use AMD Overdrive like you might have used on your older FX series AM3+ or other AMDS. I made that mistake and had serious issues to solve before the machine would even boot up. Overal, Intel is better for gaming and many normal user activities, even after the recent problems with Intel chips and the recent emergency patch that slowed down peoples CPU. However, for bang for the buck or you use CPU intensive programs like video encoding, etc - This CPU will do it for you!

Just upgraded to this from an old fx 8350 black edition. The performance increase is fantastic! Playing PUBG, I went from having a 30-40 average framerate when in the lobby surrounded by people, to 65-80 average. In open fields it's usually 90ish frames and generally runs at 75-80 when in towns or combat. In Overwatch I went from 80-85 frames on average to around 120 - 130 on Ultra quaility. I capped the frames to 120 in settings to create more consistency though. Note: I am using a 144hz monitor at 1080p, so these gains are visible for me, but if you are using a 60hz monitor, most of these improvements won't matter. Using the Ryzen Master oc application is also great. I couldn't keep my processor at a 3.8 oc using bios. It kept underclocking to 1.55 ghz whenever I set manual voltages in bios. With the software I've got a rock solid 3.8 ghz at 1.37ish volts and was able to get my ram to run at 2666mhz (although I'm still having issues getting it to run at the rated 3000 for my ram). I also have multiple profiles saved for various use cases on my computer. I clock down and lower voltages when I'm going to bed in order to get some more energy efficiency and less heat in my room, and have a profile set up specifically for gaming or intensive computing. I know bios is a better way to go, but right now my Msi bios is having issues with that, so it's good to have this alternative until things are worked out. I did put a better Noctua cooler on, however the wraith spire is no slouch and I was able to get it at the 3.8 ghz with a 75 - 80ish degrees C temperature on load with prime95. On idle it was running around 40-45ish degrees. So unless you're doing some extreme overclocking, the wraith spire will be just fine with proper case airflow. Pros: - Great performance for the price! - includes a very competent cpu cooler - good future upgrade path - very competent gaming cpu Cons: - if upgrading from the fx line, having to get new mobo and ddr4 ram - so many options for good price points, you'll constantly be tempted to go one grade up in the ryzen line - current bios ecosystem is still a bit premature. They've come a long way, but support is still a little lacking for hardware. I've heard multiple accounts of people unable to get compatibility listed ram to run at rated frequencies. Mine is running at 2666 when they are rated for 3000 and the xmp in the bios just causes boot issues.

Bought "used." Was in excellent working condition when it arrived. Very pleased.

Sin duda es el mejor Ryzen si cuentas con un presupuesto muy apretado, en vez de ir por el 1400, recomiendo altamente hacer un poco más de esfuerzo e ir a por este. A pesar de ser la versión X como sus hermanos mayores, este si cuenta con un disipador, así que es un gasto "menos" en comparación. 3.5GHz que comparados con su hermano FX8350 que corre a 4.0GHz... el Ryzen da un mejor desempeño, probablemente 3 veces mejor. Los Ryzen funcionan mejor en ambientes donde se le saca jugo al multiproceso, poco a poco los videojuegos van utilizando esta tecnología, sin embargo no son mayoría por ahora por lo que puede no irte mejor que un i3 o i5 en todos los juegos, pero en juegos que haga uso de todos los núcleos, notarás la diferencia. Si eres una persona que compila, renderiza o procesa videos sin duda Ryzen es tu procesador. A comparación de su Familia FX, los Ryzen se calientan mucho menos, de hecho, incluso menos que un Intel. En su salida tenia problemas de compatibilidad pero actualmente ya no hay de que preocuparse, prácticamente ya todas las RAM y Tarjetas madre son compatibles, eso si, probablemente tengas que actualizar la BIOS al instalarla. Los Ryzen valen totalmente la inversión y ahora con los Threadripper estos han bajado de precio.

Ryzen 1500x. Opción muy interesante y a tener en cuenta en presupuestos ajustados. Este procesador esta a la par de rendimiento de los i5. El 1500x viene con 4/8 que en total darían 8 núcleos lógicos en el sistema. Viene con una frecuencia de 3.5 GHz y en modo turbo 3.7 GHz, decir que yo lo eh subido perfectamente a 3.9 GHz con un voltaje de 1.326v combinado con una placa base b350 junto unas memorias a 3000Mhz, en si el conjunto trabaja perfectamente y tiene un buen potencial este procesador. Decir que esta montado en refrigeracion liquida y no con el disipador de serie, tiene unas temperaturas en idle de unos 35º y sobre 58º en full. Este procesador junto una Rx 580 da un rendimiento muy bueno, sacando 4560 puntos en tyme spy. En pruebas con titulos a 1080p decir que se comporta muy bien. En tareas de videos, renderizados y descompresion tambien tiene un desempeño muy bueno. En resumen, este vendria a ser el hermano mediano de los Ryzen, tiene un buen rendimiento en todos los aspectos, es bastante fresco y sera ideal para todos aquellos presupuesos ajustados los cuales no quieran renunciar a tener una potencia mas que decente en todos los escenarios. Espero que te sirva de ayuda mi opinión.

This is a beast for mid range...

Contrary to what some would have you believe and would blare out in ALLCAPS or otherwise their loudest voice, Ryzen works just fine with Windows 7 and Microsoft's block on updates can be worked around via a community patch (see bleepingcomputer.com, askwoody.com and the Windows subreddit as links to the workaround can change) and there is a noticeable increase in performance over my overclocked FX-6300. I mention this because my previous system was an FX-6300 clocked at a stable 4.2Ghz with 16GB DDR3-1866 RAM and the same video card (Radeon R9 380X 4GB) and mechanical hard drive (Seagate Barracuda 2TB) - I used to have two, but one was on its last legs and was removed until I can back it up. In games which should be medium in their intensity or otherwise offer a stable 60fps at 1080p high to, or at, ultra the FX-6300 system would drop to to the high 30s to mid-40s (Dragon Age: Inquisition at Skyhold, town areas of Mass Effect: Andromeda) and add mods to the mix for Inquisition and you could expect long enough loading times to wonder if the game has crashed. Other games such as Euro Truck Simulator 2 would be 50fps to a little over 60fps on the open road with limited traffic at High and above, but high traffic and cities would bring the frame rate down to the 30s and light ranges would have to be reduced in scope/mirror draw distance and such taken into account if you wanted a frame rate increase. In the case of ETS2, V-sync was disabled. Light games such as those made in Unity or most games using Unreal Engine 3 (with the exception of the mess that is Arkham Knight) suffered no issues at all. Keeping the settings at high for testing purposes, the Ryzen build (with just 8GB of ADATA DDR4-2400 RAM which I bought new elsewhere, has no errors when tested) reports a minimum of 52fps (high to fade-touched for Inquisition) during cluttered scenes and combat and otherwise maintains 59-63fps without waiting for sounds to play due to a high load (CPU limitation). In fairness to the FX-6300, travelling about the wilderness usually wasn't too much of an issue but pop-ins would be noticeable and the aforementioned sounds not being loaded in time and playing a few seconds late was even then. Not an issue in Andromeda, so perhaps also a game implementation issue. ETS2 reports 75fps+ at the same high detail settings regardless of the area and weather conditions (manually set to rain most of the time). Rise of the Tomb Raider is a game I ran the benchmark in prior to upgrading, the results per benchmark are given as FX-6300 first and Ryzen 5 1500X second. All details set to at least high at 1080p using the aforementioned R9 380X 4GB graphics card and mechanical hard drive. ADDITIONAL: I have now ran the benchmark a second and third time on the Ryzen build and the results have improved considerably. Spine Of The Mountain/Mountain Peak:- FX-6300 at 4.2Ghz with 16GB RAM at 1866Mhz: 28.3 minimum, 86.3 maximum, 51.1 average. 1506 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5 1500X at 3.5Ghz with 8GB RAM at 2400Mhz: 22.5 minimum, 90.1 maximum, 55.5 average. 1634 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5 2nd run: 36.6 minimum, 119.9 maximum, 67.6 average, 1989 total frames. Ryzen 5 3rd run: 41.4 minimum, 91.8 maximum, 69.6 average, 2044 total frames. Prophet's Tomb:- FX-6300: 13.5 minimum, 76.1 maximum, 38.2 average. 937 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5: 13.7 minimum, 83.5 maximum, 43.5 average. 1068 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5 2nd run: 26.2 minimum, 73.6 maximum, 51.9 average, 1272 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5 3rd run: 26.1 minimum, 71.3 maximum, 51.6 average, 1266 total rendered frames. Geothermal Valley:- FX-6300: 7.1 minimum, 89.3 maximum, 39.8 average. 1176 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5: 17.1 minimum, 84.2 maximum, 45.7 average. 1348 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5 2nd run: 22.4 minimum, 86.2 maximum, 53.9 average. 1590 total rendered frames. Ryzen 5 3rd run: 31.0 minimum, 63.7 maximum, 50.1 average, 1479 total rendered frames. Based upon the further runs conducted this morning (19th October 2017), I would wager the touted Infinity Fabric is at work here which is a blessing and a curse. A blessing because, as I have found, performance increases as one runs the same applications but a curse because if I hadn't returned? Those of you reading this review would have come away with a poor impression when compared to the overclocked FX-6300. Also, running the Geothermal Valley part for the third time (or second time this morning) allowed for all the assets to be readily available in memory leading to an improved minimum frame rate (less hard drive activity to load up everything) and a reduced maximum frame rate because the assets were actually present and being rendered. All other differences between the second and third runs I'd chalk up to standard system fluctuations as the overall results are close enough. In the other games I have mentioned, I have noticed the frame rates being a lot higher than stated. 70-100fps is not uncommon even in games such as Marvel Heroes Omega, of which depends on server connection speed to an extent and is rather cluttered with shader and texture effects when a dozen or more players are present at any one time. Not at all bad going given how bogged down/reworked UE3 is in that game. ** Temperatures ** I'm using the stock heatsink and fan as opposed to the budget water cooling that my FX-6300 and prior Phenom II x4 955 (RIP) enjoyed for years, and it is quiet and truly efficient. Temperatures rarely reach or go beyond 45C, with 40-42C usually being the maximum regardless of the intensive nature of the game in question. This does leave plenty of room for overclocking even with the basic cooler, so it remains to be seen just how far this particular chip of mine can willingly go. ** Overall so far ** I'm perfectly happy with my Ryzen 5 and I'm glad I went for that instead of the Ryzen 3 or being super cheap and going for the Athlon X4 950. Even now I have a system far more capable of video and audio editing, of which I avoided video editing as much as possible on the only just capable FX-6300 and kept to simple clean up and tweaking of my vinyl backups.
