2.5 years later and my 5900x is going strong.
Undervolted and oc'd at 4.6ghz all cores and it runs cool, is power efficient and eats up any program I throw at it.
If anyone's on an older AM4...

Although I have a 5900x it's obsolete imo.
For gaming, you get a 5800x3d or a 7800x3d.
For production, you get a 7950x.
Like Luigi here is saying,
We all thought AMD was done with AM4 after...

Not worth it unless you are sure the extra cores would be useful to you.... for me they are because I can compile more of my buggy code in parallel.

AMD just announced they are launching Ryzen 5000 XT variants for 2024 and 2025 😮 i think XT are higher clock versions of existing chips. So this 5900x should get cheaper still. I hope so. AM4 the...

I got mine for $275 last year. Upgraded from 3900x. Did not notice much difference in day-to-day productivity tasks. Runs a bit hotter than 3900x using CM ML240L AIO.

Meh, needs to go to about $200 to spur demand. Not many AM4 upgraders at this price point, IMO

If you're buying brand new, I think the 5600x would do just fine. That said, I bought my 5900x for $180+ but it's used (but came in the original box and works fine).
