Der AMD FX-9590 ist derzeit die schnellste CPU, die AMD im Desktop-Segment zu bieten hat. Der Basistakt beträgt 4,7 GHz, mit TurboCore sogar 5 GHz. Leistungsmäßig liegt er im Test knapp unter dem aktuellen Intel Core i7-4770K und damit in der Oberklasse der Bestenliste. Die maximale Verlustleistung (TDP) fällt mit 220 Watt allerdings sehr hoch aus.
