Welcome to Comsys NZ's CPU collection, featuring the latest processors from AMD and Intel. Browse our range of desktop and server CPUs including AMD Ryzen, Intel Core, Xeon and more. Whether you're building a gaming rig, workstation or server, find the perfect processor with the right core count, clock speed and socket compatibility. All CPUs ship from our Auckland warehouse with manufacturer warranty and free delivery on orders over $500 ex GST across New Zealand. Business customers can open a trade account for volume pricing.
Selecting the right CPU is crucial for your system's performance. Start by determining compatibility with your motherboard socket type (like AM5 for newer AMD processors or LGA1700 for 12th/13th gen Intel chips). Consider how you'll use your system—gamers should prioritise higher clock speeds and mid-range core counts, while content creators benefit from more cores for multitasking and rendering.
CPU generations matter—newer generations typically offer better performance per watt and newer features. AMD Ryzen processors excel in multi-threaded workloads and often provide better value, while Intel Core processors traditionally edge ahead in single-core performance and gaming. For professional workstations or servers, consider Intel Xeon or AMD EPYC/Threadripper for their enhanced reliability and support for ECC memory.
Don't forget to factor in your cooling solution. Higher-performance CPUs generate more heat and may require more robust cooling. Most boxed retail CPUs include a stock cooler, but enthusiasts often upgrade to aftermarket options for better thermal performance and quieter operation. If you're building a compact system, look for processors with lower TDP (thermal design power) ratings to manage heat in restricted spaces.
Yes, we carry a complete range of both AMD processors (including Ryzen 3, 5, 7, 9 and Threadripper) and Intel CPUs (including Core i3, i5, i7, i9 and Xeon). All are brand new with full manufacturer warranty.
Boxed CPUs come in retail packaging with manufacturer cooling fans and full warranty. Tray CPUs are bulk OEM versions without retail boxes or stock coolers, typically purchased for system builds where aftermarket cooling will be used.
In-stock CPUs ordered before 2pm typically dispatch same-day from our Auckland warehouse, with delivery in 1-2 business days to main centres and 2-3 days to regional New Zealand. Free shipping on orders over $500 ex GST.
Yes, we offer 30-day returns on unopened CPUs in original packaging. For technical compatibility issues with opened products, contact our customer support team who can help with exchanges or returns.
Yes, registered New Zealand businesses can apply for a trade account to access volume pricing on CPUs and other components. Approved accounts receive 30-day credit terms and priority dispatch for urgent orders.
For gaming, consider Intel Core i5/i7 or AMD Ryzen 5/7 processors from recent generations. Gaming benefits from higher clock speeds and IPC (instructions per clock) rather than maximum core count.
