Good to know. Cooler is a 280mm.
yer your solid buddy. the chips hit high 80's bench and stress in.. but game a lot better 60/70 your 280 will do just fine i had the same cooler its good
only problem now is you need a gpu upgrade obviously

Happy days. It will have an easy life running 10 year old MMO’s at 1440p.

Recently got rid of my cpu/mobo and memory, and put together some spare parts just so there wasn't an empty space on the desk.
Asus B450M Plus, 16gb PC3200 and the ultimate CPU... A Ryzen 1400 :| I threw in my Arc A770 alongside, just so that I could go full CPU bottleneck.
Now that I've put this together, the 5700X3D is calling. I've heard many say that they are quite toasty chips, but how bad really?
The case they are in is quite small for MATX (13.8l ZZAW C2), but the Jonsbo CR-2200 seems quite happy with the overvolted 1400 at 3.9. I was sort of guessing that Zen 3 would probably run a bit cooler, even with more cores and the 3d cache?

Received mine today and have been benching it for a couple of hours now. I’m finding it to run at pretty much the same temps as my 5600x (which was clocked at PBO +100mhz). Sometimes 3-5c higher, but todays ambient temps here are 3-5c higher than when I benched my 5600x yesterday.
Currently testing an all-core PBO2 -30 and in Cinebench 24 and Linpack it’s dropping temps by a good 10c (like under 60c on the C24 multi-core test with the AC Liquid Freezer II 280mm).

Deliberated for a bit and figured I'd just do it. Although it did feel a bit wrong buying a CPU for such an old platform, but I've got some better G-Skill memory I can pair it with. Should arrive for end of work on Friday, which is good timing.
I think you are going to love it! Enjoy.

It's mainly to sit on the desk, on the off-chance I feel like using it.
Every day I walk by my desk, and just think about the mismatch of A770 and AMD 1400, it made me feel wrong inside.

Got this, and it performs fine but I’m really having issues with it just constantly keeping high clock speeds, it’s going between multiple states but it’s always above 3 to 4GHz which just doesn’t seem right. Initially I thought it was because I’d thrown it on an my old Intel 12400’s windows install, so I did a windows reinstall, clearing the CMOS beforehand. It’s still the same behaviour, on a fresh Windows 11 install with latest chipset drivers and a bit of time left for it to calm down.
I’m guessing this is just something to do with the Asus B450M Plus Gaming board. I did see it had a BIOS update in the last month or so, so that’s installed too. With no change... *Friends don’t let friends buy Asus!*
I’m not sure I will ever notice the difference between this CPU and my 12400 that was just allowed to turbo indefinitely, but it’s for sure a nice option for those with older AM4 boards.

Just checked mine, and whilst ‘Core Clocks’ don’t drop below 3600mhz, the ‘Core Effective Clocks’ do drop to 0.4mhz.

As the guy above said you need to look at the core effective. Ryzen cpus don't down clock to very low speeds like intel cpus so this is totally normal behavior, instead they use various power states to reduce power consumption.

I'm sure it's fine. Can't really be bothered looking at it. The setup works, and that'll do.
As a CPU for the AM4 platform, it's definitely good. It's just not very interesting though. End of life upgrade for a spare PC. Not world shattering.

Since when do CPU's need to be interesting? :/
Pride of ownership.

I must be mistaken, I thought this was the OcUK forums. Guess not.
Look how arm do it on phones, they can't down clock so they add in extra cores that run at different clock speeds

Each to their own, not sure I've ever felt pride by owning a CPU.
Right, but it's not exactly that often that there's much particularly interesting happening with them? I guess the 5700X3D has 3D cache which is cool though.
