I guess this is a good deal if you have to have it right now, but they had it for $350 just about a week ago. Think the priced jumped up right after Windows 11 was released.

And hopefully, the price will jump down again next month--Black Friday!
Man 5600x is $300, 5800x on sale is $350.... Unless the 5600x drop below the $250 mark... I think this is a better a deal.
Ryzen 5 5600X is $270 at Micro Center
AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is $235 on urlhasbeenblocked via eBay Vega based APU
Cezanne is monolithic die no 12nm IOD, runs cooler, had better memory controller
Infinity Fabric capable of 2000 MHz BUT only 16MB of L3 cache vs 32MB in Vermeer CCX
If you only play games, go with 5600X. Otherwise, go with 5900X.
Ryzen 9 5900X is nearly $600. That is a big increase in price from the Ryzen 7 5800X (which is usually a bit under $400). Not sure if the 5900X is worth another ~$200.

When do you guys think the 6000 series will come out? I am on a Ryzen 7 2700x, and I am thinking of upgrading, but my 2700x works just fine.
mid 2022 at the earliest. new socket, and ddr5. Unless 12th gen intel causes massive sales drop, they are not in a rush.
If you have a 4xx mobo, id just get a 5xxx chip. You will see a pretty big uptick in games, and will be able to run your ram at a higher speed. I noticed up to a 50% boost in my 1% fps just going from a 2600x to a 3600, and i could run my ram from 2933 to 3600.

You're right. According to this it isnt worth the upgrade.
