Ryzen 5000 desktop CPUs, AMD has finally knocked Intel to the floor, and is raising its boxing
gloves in victory as the flash bulbs pop and the ref declares a winner.
The headline takeaway: Ryzen 9 5900X and Ryzen 9 5950X have trounced Intel’s Core i9. The Ryzen 5000 chips using AMD’s Zen 3 cores are arguably the best consumer desktop CPUs the world has ever seen. Ryzen 5000 simply gives no quarter to its Intel arch-nemesis in any single task. Heavy lifting multi-core work? AMD. Light single-threaded tasks? AMD. Gaming? AMD. PCIe 4.0? AMD. No need to throw away your existing motherboard? AMD.
