But then I sold it two weeks later barely used for $500, when I got my 5900x for $600.
So only $100 lost, not bad.
I already have a 3950x, which is inside of a Truenas server. I'll probably swap this 5950x into that box, because its a little bit faster, and put the 3950x back into my desktop.
I know a lot of people are going to say something about the new alder lakes, but when you run the box 24/7 the efficiency of the AMD processors make a difference.
I can finally replace my old i5-2500k in my pfsense box with the 3400G.
Hope this sees me through for the next few years.
I only point this out to show it isn't always the best idea to wait months for deals.
