What sucks is I have a 5900x, still sealed, and wanted to sell it and switch the build to intel, but the price is going down so much I'd lose a ton selling my 5900x.

Also the 5800x3d is better for gaming but not for productivity.

The 5900X is good for productivity, it can also be awesome gaming but is still a little lacking behind 5800x3d and Intel 12700k/12900k.
It is all come down to $$$.
All this going back and for seems kind of pointless to me. I saw a video where a guy took his 5950x and with PBO it matched, or even beat slightly the 12900K. Basically they were in the margin of error mostly with each other.
The 5800X3d is cool, but the "gains" in gaming aren't that impressive for most people. Ok, so you get 7% more frame rate at 1080p. Are there a lot of people who game at 1080P at all, and if they do will they care that one processor runs at 285 fps where the other runs at 277 fps on their 165hz monitor?
For 99% of people it will make little to no noticeable difference. For the people that need it they already are willing to upgrade to whatever is the latest fastest and they don't care about saving $30.
So what should I do? Wait until price drops more? I don't think it'll drop a lot more since this is end of line for AM4 so people like me are looking to max out the slot. Sit tight on the 3700x and just take the bigger leap once AM5 is here?
