Except the 7950 doesn't set itself on fire, unlike the x3d

Remember folks, most of the advertised specs, benchmarks, reviews etc. are using EXPO settings but if you use EXPO settings your CPU warranty is void.

Still.over priced. This is hardly a savings. Absolutely NO rush buying this..it's pretty much the new prices with ALL AM5 chips reduced in price already.

Shocked it was upvoted even once..I've seen this price for weeks.

Absolute joke 1k for cpu and mobo only, even for 7950. Have a feeling by prime day and beyond mobo price will finally tank.

Plus a lot of cash if you insure the house and your wife and you're the only survivor of a house fire that oddly started from a computer.

I'm kidding of course

yea that doesn't make sense, it uses alot less power than the 7950x

x12900k and 13900k intels are the ones that are basically impossible to cool outside of very big water loops.

If you have a mc nearby (I know, big if) and are ok with the pro prime vs gaming mobo, you can get this proc with mobo and 32gb ddr5-6000 for $800:
https://www.microcenter.com/produ...uild-combo

They also have an msi mobo bundle (w/o ram) on Amazon for $800 (7950x + MSI PRO X670-P WiFi ProSeries Motherboard (AMD AM5, DDR5, PCIe 4.0, SATA 6Gb/s, M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 2,)
