Quite the opposite. AMD specifically prohibited overclocking.

Followed by various hackers looking for ways around that.
And there was never any such burning problem with the 5800X3D either.
You seem to be confused about what chip this thread is even about.
In 4-5 years you can upgrade to AM6.

whats your point?
And 7000 series doesn't seem like that big of a jump at 1440p for as much money as you have to invest with new MB & DDR5.

Currently, micro center have AM5 combo for $450 (7700x+mobo+ram). The 5800x3D only has some noticeable gains over 7700x in 1080p where both CPU already push 100+ fps. At 1440p and above resolution, the gain is minimal at best if there is any gain. Going with AM5 will open an upgrade path for you in future.
My point is, I don't think it is a good idea to spend $400+ and build a brand new AM4 system today and lock you out of a future drop-in CPU upgrade down the line.
With that said, all my rambling is only applicable ONLY to people who live near a MicroCenter. If you don't have a local microcenter close to where you live, I understand a new AM5 system will cost around $700 to build, which is significantly higher than $450 of an AM4 system. In that case, you just have to weight what is best for you.
Hope everyone finds a good deal.

100 degrees Fahrenheit is about 38 degrees Celsius, so if your CPU is idling at 100F, you're totally fine. Now if its at 100C, thats a massive problem.
Most 5800x3d are "good silicon" and can run -25 to -30 undervolt on all cores, reducing voltage by ~0.1v. Not only does this result in notably less heat output, but the extra heat headroom allows the chip to consistently boost all cores to 4.45ghz when needed, which is much better than my 5900x could do.
And as I mentioned BIOS above, be sure to update to the latest BIOS for your motherboard, since 5800x3d is a relatively new chip and most boards probably have a new BIOS which better supports it.
Pretty happy with the upgrade considering my Valorant FPS went up from 140fps lows to no less than 400fps, with 500fps avg in game.

This is a 3440x1440 gaming rig only. All productivity has been over to my MacBook Pro.
I'm tempted to grab it just so I can "max out" my AM4 specs, but I dunno if it's worth it.
