FULL DESCRIPTION

For the dedicated gamer in Riyadh or Doha looking to dominate lobbies without turning their gaming room into a sauna, the AMD Ryzen™ 7 9700X offers the ultimate balance of elite competitive performance and impressive thermal efficiency.

Built on the cutting-edge Zen 5 architecture, this processor pushes framerates to the limit, ensuring your crosshair is always on target in high-stakes Valorant matches or chaotic Call of Duty: Warzone endgames. With a blistering Max Boost Clock of up to 5.5 GHz, the single-core speed is optimized to fully saturate high-end graphics cards, while the 8 cores and 16 threads effortlessly handle simultaneous gaming and streaming to Twitch or YouTube without a single stutter.

This configuration is the gold standard for modern gaming engines; the remarkably low 65W TDP ensures the chip runs significantly cooler than its predecessors, allowing it to maintain peak boost frequencies longer during marathon weekend sessions. By utilizing the robust AM5 socket and DDR5 memory, you are securing a future-proof rig that eliminates bottlenecks in open-world titles like Cyberpunk 2077.

Supported by a full regional warranty with service centers accessible across the UAE and KSA, this processor is verified to perform reliably even in warmer ambient environments.

While the thermal efficiency is excellent, pairing this CPU with a quality premium air cooler or AIO is recommended to maintain that aggressive boost clock under heavy load.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I see this doesn't come with a fan. For a gaming build in Riyadh where my room gets pretty warm, is a regular air cooler enough or do I absolutely need liquid cooling?

I have an Asus X670E motherboard I bought last year. Will this 9700X work straight out of the box or will I get a black screen?

Is this an official GCC unit? I'm worried about buying a 'gray market' import that won't be accepted for warranty in Dubai.

I want to run 128GB of RAM for video editing. Will this chip run stable with 4 sticks of DDR5, or should I stick to 2?

Does the box include a packet of thermal paste, or do I need to buy that separately? I don't want to get stuck mid-build.

If I try to install this and the PC doesn't turn on, how do I know if the CPU is dead or if it's my motherboard? Do you test returns?
