FX-9370 Details

Built on AMD's Vishera microarchitecture and manufactured on a 32 nm process, the FX-9370 is a desktop processor that was launched in June 2013. As of March 2026, it is considered a legacy device, with a design that reflects the early stages of modern multicore computing. Despite its age, the FX-9370 remains notable for its high core count and overclocking potential, which were key selling points at the time of release. The processor is designed for high-performance desktop systems and supports up to 24 GB of DDR3 memory across a dual-channel interface, with a maximum memory bandwidth of 25.6 GB/s.

The FX-9370 features 8 cores and 8 threads, operating at a base clock of 3.2 GHz and capable of reaching a turbo frequency of 3.46 GHz. It is built on the FCLGA1366 socket and has a TDP of 130 W, making it a power-hungry component that demands robust cooling solutions. The chip includes a substantial 7.629 MiB of L3 cache and supports ECC memory, a feature that enhances reliability in mission-critical environments. While the processor does not come with integrated graphics, certain motherboards with compatible chipsets can provide this capability through onboard solutions.

In terms of performance, the FX-9370 holds an overall score of 5511, ranking #472 among 2060 processors. Its single-core performance is particularly strong, with a score of 5888 placing it at #314, a position that reflects its high clock speeds and optimized architecture for sequential workloads. However, its multicore score of 4946 places it at #681, indicating that while it delivers solid performance, it trails behind modern processors in heavily parallelized tasks. This discrepancy suggests that the FX-9370 excels in single-threaded applications but is less competitive in modern, multi-threaded environments.

The processor supports a wide range of instruction sets, including AVX, AVX2, FMA3, and AES-NI, which enhance performance in multimedia, encryption, and scientific computing tasks. It also includes virtualization technologies such as AMD-V, enabling efficient operation of virtual machines. The inclusion of ECC memory support and the ability to overclock via an unlocked multiplier make the FX-9370 appealing to enthusiasts and workstation users who prioritize flexibility and reliability.

In conclusion, the AMD FX-9370 represents a significant step in AMD's evolution toward high-core-count processors, albeit one that is now outdated by modern standards. Its strong single-core performance and support for ECC memory make it suitable for niche applications such as legacy system upgrades or specific workstation tasks. However, for users seeking cutting-edge performance, the FX-9370's age and power consumption make it a less attractive option compared to current-generation CPUs.
