AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT, Ryzen 7 3800XT and Ryzen 9 3900XT Review

Up Close

All three of the XT chips come in the familiar Ryzen packaging. We know that CPU packages are never the most interesting thing, and for many of us there are just a box we dispose of faster than storage drive boxes or similar. But it’s nice to have something that still looks good on your shelf even when it’s empty, and the big number relating to where in the Ryzen range it falls gives you bragging rights if you’re the proud owner of a Ryzen 9. The Ryzen 5 3600XT comes with their Wrath Spire cooler, whilst the Ryzen 7 3800XT and Ryzen 9 3900XT are left cooler free. Not a bad decision given how few of us use OEM coolers, instead of our expensive AIO options.
